Masha Beauty Hamster Filorga Scrub & Detox Exfoliator

My review today is about Filorga Scrub & Detox Exfoliator, a new fairly soft facial scrub mask with niacinamide, charcoal, papaya enzymes, hyaluronic acid, amino acids, vitamins B1, B2, B3, B4, B5, B6, B7, B8, B9 , B12, glutathione, glucuronic acid, vitamins A, C and E in the composition.

Compound

First, let's quickly go over the composition of the Filorga Scrub & Detox Exfoliator mask. So what works here:

Small microspheres made of volcanic pumice and charcoal act as mechanical exfoliating particles;
Papaya enzymes are responsible for chemical exfoliation;
Niacinamide (vitamin B3) has an anti-inflammatory effect, strengthens the skin's protective barrier, regulates the functioning of the sebaceous glands, and helps moisturize the skin;
Charcoal helps cleanse the skin, improves complexion;
Plus, a mixture of structure-forming components, emulsifiers, natural dyes, preservatives,
Plus, a mixture of skin softening ingredients and a small amount of almond oil;
Amino acid mixture (Alanine, Glutamine, Arginine Hcl, Lysine Hcl, Arginine Hcl, Alanine, Histidine Hcl, Valine, Leucine, Threonine, Isoleucine, Tryptophan, Phenylalanine, Tyrosine, Glycine, Serine, Cystine, Asparagine, Aspartic Acid, Ornithine Hcl, Glutamic Acid, Proline, Methionine, Taurine, Hydroxyproline) softens and moisturizes the skin, strengthens the protective barrier, promotes skin regeneration;
Glucosamine Hcl (monosaccharide) moisturizes the skin, promotes skin regeneration;
Passion fruit extract has an anti-inflammatory effect, evens out complexion, increases skin elasticity;
A mixture of vitamins A, C and E (in several forms, including TPNa) and glutathione has an antioxidant effect, protects skin cells from oxidation;
Vitamin complex B1 (Thiamine Hcl, Thiamine Diphosphate), B2 (Riboflavin), B3 (Niacin), B4 (Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide) B5 (Calcium Pantothenate), B6 (Pyridoxine Hcl), B7 (Biotin), B8 (Inositol), B9 (Folic Acid), B12 (Cyanocobalamin) softens and strengthens the skin, has an anti-inflammatory effect;
A mixture of hyaluronic acid, CoA (Coenzyme A), glucuronic acid and glucose moisturizes and softens the skin.

I would also note that, in my opinion, the Filorga Scrub & Detox Exfoliator mask is not suitable for sensitive skin - there are fragrances, mechanical exfoliation, and a too “complex” composition (in the case of sensitive skin, the simpler the composition of the product, the more essentially better).

Brand Filorga

Filorga is a brand of medical cosmetics developed and produced in France. The company began its activities in 1978 as a manufacturer of effective cosmetics for facial skin care. The company maintains its competitiveness with dignity, the demand for it is good, since the results from regular use are obvious.

Specialists with medical education who know all the subtleties and structural features of the epidermis work on the creation of Filorga cosmetics. The company has its own laboratory, where highly effective and, most importantly, safe components are mixed and high-quality products are obtained.

The complex of medical cosmetics from Filorga is often used by cosmetologists in aesthetic salons and clinics. According to the manufacturer himself, the results from the creams are so impressive that this can only be achieved using hardware on the skin.

Usage

The texture of the Filorga Scrub & Detox Exfoliator mask is very interesting - whipped, as if velvety, mousse-like (the texture is somewhat reminiscent of the Elemis Peptide4 Thousand Flower Mask). The exfoliating particles in the mask are not too harsh, not traumatic, they do not scratch or damage the skin (when applying the mask to damp skin, you get a fairly pleasant soft massage).

In terms of use, the manufacturer recommends applying the mask with gentle massaging movements to damp skin, leaving for 2-3 minutes (the mask does not have time to dry on the skin during this time), and then rinsing off (there is no need to massage the skin when washing off the mask). Oh, and I completely forgot, the mask has a typical aroma of Filorga cosmetics, the aroma is not too bright, but very noticeable.

Oh, in fact, I don’t really like the Filorga brand, and I don’t think the scrub format is the most beneficial for the skin (in this regard, I’m in favor of acids and enzymes), but I was sent the Filorga Scrub & Detox Exfoliator mask as a gift by LookFantastic last month, so that I tested the mask for about a month (I used it twice a week). In terms of effectiveness, I can say that the Filorga Scrub & Detox Exfoliator mask exfoliates very gently, without injuring or damaging the skin (and the exfoliation is really very soft, as it seems to me, such exfoliation will not be enough for those with thick and dense skin).

After using the mask, the skin becomes quite smooth and renewed, the mask also softens the skin quite well (the mask does not dry out the skin, in my opinion, it even moisturizes a little), plus it evens out the complexion well. I won’t say that this effect is very pronounced, I like it when after peeling the skin becomes a little more “egg-like” smooth, but overall it’s not bad, the Filorga Scrub & Detox Exfoliator mask essentially delivers on its promises.

Features of cosmetics

The features of the Sleep and Peel night cream from Filorga, according to its creator, have no analogues among other competing products. The company itself, during the development of the cream, identified the advantages of its product based on the principle of its penetration and impact at the cellular, tissue and organ levels.

On the cellular. In the process of developing the cream, specialists use cell extracts rich in nucleotides, which penetrate the cellular structures of the epidermal layers. The presence of nucleotides in Filorga cream is one of the features of a medical cosmetic product.
On fabric. Elastin and collagen are substances that are also involved in the production of night cream and other products from the manufacturer. Their function is to penetrate the fibers of the skin tissue and restore its former elasticity and firmness.
On the organ. The creams contain a high content of various groups of vitamins.

In addition, a feature of the cream is its high effectiveness after the first use. In other words, after just one night of full sleep, Filogra can penetrate all layers of the epidermis, enriching them with vitamins and other missing elements. As a result, in the morning your face will look rested, as if it had been on vacation for a week.

Application

Night smoothing cream Filorga Sleep and Peel is effective in the dark. Before applying it, you need to wash the skin of your face and neck using a light peel. After this, dry with a soft towel. Next, apply the cream with light movements to the face and neck along the massage lines. The area around the eyes should be avoided.

If your skin is highly sensitive, then the use of Slip & Peel cream should be reduced to 1 evening application per 2 days. If after application a burning sensation is felt on the face, the product should be washed off immediately and not used again.

Indications for use

Sleep and Peel Filorga resurfacing night cream is a product that is recommended for people with tired and lifeless-looking skin. If, in the course of its life, the dermis has lost its former tone and firmness, then this is another reason to use the product.

What caused the fading of the facial skin is not so significant for the cream (stress, fatigue, poor environment). Its action is aimed at eliminating the consequences of these factors, and, as they say in reviews of Sleep and Peel Filorga, the cosmetic product performs its functions with dignity.

Another reason to purchase a jar of night cream is recent hardware and invasive effects on the skin (plastic surgery, peeling, mesotherapy). The product will gently soothe the skin at night, relieve redness and irritation.

The product is suitable for all age categories and skin types. Therefore, if you are looking for something new for yourself in facial care products, then “Filogra” may be exactly the product that will “settle” in your cosmetic bag for a long time.

Description of texture and packaging

Filorga Sleep Peel acid creams are sold in gray matte 50 ml jars. There are inscriptions in English on the front side. The entire Filorga collection is made in a stylish black and gray design that looks expensive. The matte jar is held firmly and does not slip out of your hands.

The texture of the cream is thick and rich, but at the same time “weightless”. The white substance has an unobtrusive aroma that is barely perceptible when applied to the skin. It is easily distributed over the surface of the dermis, quickly absorbed, leaving no greasy marks or stains.

Face cream

The product "Filorga Time-Filler Mat" is intended to combat skin aging. It has a positive effect on the skin of the face. The tripeptide and bolotoxin included in it smooth out facial wrinkles. A powerful peptide enhances the production of collagen and hyaluronic acid. Fills wrinkles, which gives a visual effect.

This cream has a beneficial effect on enlarged pores. The substance, extracted from Greek wood, reduces the size of pores. Its effect can be observed on the fourteenth day of using this product. The same component prevents the appearance of skin defects. And reflective particles visually even out the relief of the dermis.

The cream helps eliminate oily shine. Zinc pidolate, together with plant extracts, removes shine from the face and mattifies the skin.

The product is used as an everyday product. Apply it in the morning to cleansed facial skin using patting movements with your fingers.

Weaknesses of a cosmetic product

Despite the impressive list of advantages of the Slee and Peel night cream, it also showed its weaknesses, which for some were a reason to refuse further purchase and use. What do reviews say about the negative aspects after using the cream?

Filorga product does not tolerate solar ultraviolet radiation, so it is not recommended to use it as a daytime product (unless additional sun protective creams are applied).
High cost for a 50 ml jar.
In the first minutes of use, some women feel a slight tingling in the application areas. The effect disappears after several applications, but is alarming at the very beginning of its use.
Some women experienced the appearance of subcutaneous and external acne in the first days of use, which they associate precisely with the start of using the cream.
The manufacturer does not indicate on the packaging some important nuances: for what age the product is intended, for what skin type. Perhaps this once again proves its uniqueness, but still customers regard this as a drawback.
Some women, even after completely using the Slip and Peel jar, did not see the effect of its action on themselves.
For a small number of girls, the cream caused the opposite result: oily skin, clogged pores, irritation, no fresh and rested look.

As for the listed shortcomings, these are individual cases. Filorga Sleep and Peel cream may not be suitable in cases of individual intolerance, too sensitive skin, or if you are allergic to some components of the medical and cosmetic product.

Properties of Sleep and Peel

Reviews of Filorga Sleep and Peel speak about the decent properties of the night cream. What is good about this product?

The cream applied to the skin is activated at night, having a beneficial effect on the epidermal layers and helping the face to relax and prepare for a new day. All this is possible thanks to a vitamin complex and a number of natural components.

The night cream has more ingredients than the day cream from the same company. In addition to the NCTF complex and hyaluronic acid, the components of Sleep and Peel night cream also include polyhydroxy acids, which provide safe and effective deep peeling. According to reviews left by customers, the product from the French brand is capable of clearing pores of “clogs” and even comedones, but only of small sizes.

While a person sleeps, the cream actively works, soothes, restores and regenerates the skin of the face. Azelaic and pyruvic acids promote a triple effect: moisturize the surface layers of the dermis, provide an antioxidant and comedolytic result. The skin is saturated with natural collagen and elastin, returning freshness, silkiness and matteness.

Price

Products from Filorga are expensive medical and cosmetic products. This is also mentioned in the reviews. Filorga Sleep and Peel can be purchased at a price of 3500 - 4000 rubles per 50 ml jar. However, the consumption of the product is very economical, which allows you to make a repeated purchase every 1 - 2 months.

If you come across Slip and Peel night cream in online stores at a price lower than stated, then this is a reason to think about the quality and naturalness of the product.
