• At what age should you start using skincare products to fight the signs of ageing?
As we get older, our skin evolves, and it actually starts to age quite early – from around the age of 25. But don't let this alarm you! It's a perfectly natural process, and it doesn't mean that from age 25 the signs of ageing suddenly become visible. Everyone's skin is different, and the way we look after it (sun exposure, hydration, etc.) also plays an important role in how your skin looks and feels.
With that in mind, there isn't really a specific age when you should start to use smoothing skincare products. Some people prefer to start using skin-smoothing products before they reach the age of 30, as a preventative measure. Others will start using products such as Ginseng Power as soon as they notice more visible signs of ageing, at around the age of 35 to 40, but sometimes as late as age 45.
Our recommendation is that you use products that work with your skin, match your needs, and give you what you're looking for!
• What is Ginseng and what does it do? Has its effectiveness been proven?
Ginseng is a true super-ingredient for your skin and yes, it's already been shown to be effective! We compared the effectiveness of our Ginseng with Retinol, and it was proven: it's just as effective as Retinol!1 Ginseng has been known for thousands of years. It's used in food, drinks, cosmetic products and medicines to help maintain good health and improve quality of life.
This is why we've not only used this smoothing super-ingredient in our skincare formulas, such as the GINSENG POWER range, but also in makeup products such as our BB CRÈME. We also use one of the most powerful forms of Ginseng, so we can fully harness its extraordinary properties.
-Our Ginseng is grown in Korea (of course!), as it's here that you'll find the species with the highest concentration of active ingredients. There are 13 species of Ginseng. Korean Ginseng contains, on average, 38 different ginsenosides (the active molecules contained in Ginseng roots), compared with just 19 in the American species. Moreover, Korean Ginseng is often referred to as the "King of Ginseng" due to its many benefits!
-We use six-year-old White Ginseng complex, so it contains the highest concentration of active molecules, and all its benefits can be delivered to your skin.
This high concentration of active molecules gives it many superpowers, such as an antioxidant effect. Our White Ginseng complex is able to smooth the skin and reduce the visible effects of ageing.
• What are Peptides and what do they do?
Peptides function as building blocks for proteins such as collagen, which form the foundation of your skin. They increase the synthesis of procollagen and inhibit its degradation. This enables the skin to regenerate, thus helping to improve the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Peptides also improve elasticity and skin density, while boosting cell renewal.
• Does the GINSENG POWER range contain silicones?
Our GINSENG POWER range was formulated without silicones.
• Is GINSENG POWER suitable for my skin type?
Our GINSENG POWER cream has been tested under dermatological supervision and is suitable for all skin types.
• Is GINSENG POWER vegan?
Yes, GINSENG POWER is a vegan formula, so it doesn't contain any animal-derived ingredients.
• Does the rich texture of GINSENG POWER leave an oily finish on the skin?
GINSENG POWER contains butters and oils that melt on the skin, providing both comfort and nourishment, and this is what gives it its rich texture. At Erborian, we always focus on the sensorial qualities of our formulas, which is why we developed this rich texture that is so appreciated by our consumers: 100% of those who tested it said it did not leave a sticky residue, while 97% said it did not leave an oily finish.3 Our GINSENG POWER cream has been tested and works with all skin types.
• My skin is really dehydrated, and sometimes my usual face cream doesn't do enough. What can I do?
At Erborian, we select active ingredients that are known for their hydrating and nourishing properties. The cream's rich, dense texture melts on the skin and leaves it feeling hydrated and comfortable. 97% of people who tested this product said their skin felt hydrated immediately after application.3
If this cream doesn't fully meet your skin's needs, try combining GINSENG POWER with our BAMBOO SUPER SERUM: 2 hours after applying this serum, skin hydration levels increase by 46%.4
• Can GINSENG POWER be used on the eye area?
The GINSENG POWER cream has been formulated and dermatologically tested to be used on the entire face, with the aim of smoothing your skin and enhancing its beauty. However, it was not formulated to act specifically on the eye area. The skin around the eyes is different from other facial skin, so it's recommended that you care for it with specific eye care products.
This is why we'd advise you to use GINSENG POWER EYE on the eye area. Formulated with a high concentration of Ginseng, Peptides and Caffeine, it provides long-lasting action to smooth wrinkles and fine lines, while also reducing the appearance of dark circles and puffiness. It's been tested under dermatological and ophthalmological supervision.
• How can GINSENG POWER be effective in just 3 minutes and over the long term?
We are a skincare brand with a purpose: to help you rediscover your skin. All our products are carefully developed and tested so they can deliver instant and visible results, revealing all your skin’s potential day after day. So our GINSENG POWER formula combines active ingredients that are immediately effective with others that will work on the skin over time.
Thanks to a natural biopolymer with an instant smoothing effect, wrinkles and fine lines on the face are visibly reduced immediately.
Then, from the first day, this action is enhanced by an Acmella extract, which acts like a "botanical botox" to smooth wrinkles and fine lines, so your skin looks smoothed out.
Finally, our White Ginseng and Korean peptides step in to enhance this action and make it last over time. White Ginseng, with its smoothing superpowers, works to reduce the visible effects of ageing. This action is reinforced by Peptides, which smooth wrinkles and improve skin elasticity and density.
