Review

Results you may expect from using Filorga NCEF-Reverse Supreme Regenerating Cream:

Based on the ingredient analysis by CreamScan, these are the key benefits you can expect from using Filorga NCEF-Reverse Supreme Regenerating Cream:

  • Significant moisturizing. It has a moisturizing rating of 6.7 out of 10.
  • Some anti-wrinkle efficacy: Filorga NCEF-Reverse Supreme Regenerating Cream has an anti-wrinkle rating of 3.0 out of 10 so you may expect some, although limited, effect on wrinkles.
  • Antioxidant protection.

How moisturizing is it?

Highly moisturizing: Filorga NCEF-Reverse Supreme Regenerating Cream has a moisturizing rating of 6.7 out of 10.

Is it more humectant or occlusive? Significantly more humectant. It has a maximum humectancy of 10 out of 10, primarily due to the substantial concentration of Glycerin (est. ≈6.8%) and Propanediol (est. ≈3.0%), and a moderate occlusivity of 3.4 out of 10, mainly due to the high content of Butyrospermum Parkii (Shea) Butter (est. ≈4.6%).

Please refer to the Ratings section below for details of the moisturizing rating calculation.

Anti-wrinkle efficacy

According to CreamScan analysis, Filorga NCEF-Reverse Supreme Regenerating Cream has a slight anti-wrinkle rating of 3.0 out of 10.

It contains 3 active ingredients with proven anti-wrinkle efficacy:

  • Retinol (est. ≈0.1%),
     the most effective non-prescription ingredient with well-proven efficacy to reduce wrinkles.
  • Niacinamide (est. ≈0.3%),
     one of the most effective and well-researched anti-wrinkle ingredients.
  • Ascorbic Acid (est. ≈0.3%),
     or Vitamin C, a popular anti-wrinkle ingredient, yet with average efficacy confirmed by only one study.
Among others, Filorga NCEF-Reverse Supreme Regenerating Cream also contains some ingredients marketed as effective in reducing wrinkles, specifically Dipeptide Diaminobutyroyl Benzylamide Diacetate, Haberlea Rhodopensis Leaf Extract, Palmitoyl Tripeptide-1, Palmitoyl Tetrapeptide-7, Retinyl Acetate, and Folic Acid. However, the studies supporting the anti-wrinkle claims of these ingredients provide insufficient evidence of efficacy according to CreamScan Research Evaluation Standards. Therefore, these ingredients do not contribute to the anti-wrinkle rating.
 
Moisturizers, when used regularly, are proven to prevent wrinkle formation and even reduce existing wrinkles. Therefore, this product, like any other moisturizer, could deliver additional anti-wrinkle efficacy through its moisturizing action.
 

Please refer to the Ratings section below for details of the anti-wrinkle rating calculation.

Antioxidant benefits

We estimate that Filorga NCEF-Reverse Supreme Regenerating Cream is rich (> 3%) in antioxidants, specifically Tocopheryl Acetate (est. ≈0.3%), Hydrolyzed Hyaluronic Acid (est. ≈0.3%), Diethylhexyl Syringylidenemalonate (est. ≈0.3%), and others.

A key benefit of antioxidants is their ability to reduce oxidative stress caused by free radicals and therefore prevent accelerated skin aging. Studies also show that antioxidants can protect against environmental damage such as UV radiation and pollution, and help reduce inflammation and skin redness.
