First Aid Beauty Firming Cream with Peptides, Niacinamide + Collagen – Day & Night Anti-Aging Face Moisturiser Helps Visibly Firm Skin – 50mL

Product Information

We also have Vitamin E to moisturise and soothe the skin, as well as to provide antioxidant benefits. Founded by Lilli Gordon in 2009, First Aid Beauty (aka FAB) has been on a mission ever since, to give you smart and effective skincare solutions that work for even the most sensitive skin types. You can see the detailed formula review with the breakdown of all actives in the product and the full ingredient list with estimated concentrations in the tables below.

I wash my face with the First Aid Cleanser, pat dry with tissue (to avoid bacteria irritating my face eczema), spray with the Avène Thermal Water and lock it in with the Bioassance Squalane oil and FAB collagen cream. Transitioning here meant crazy changes for my skin since the weather is very dry and different from what I was used to. And there's obviously your colloidal oat and the licorice extract (though this is quite low on the ingredient list). I don't really know why you'd put something in there that's not good for compromised skin if you're marketing it as being as safe for sensitive skin as possible. Plumping the skin with moisture, First Aid Beauty’s Ultra Repair Firming Collagen Cream helps to smooth and firm the visage.I have been using the cream in combination with retinol from the Inkey list for a number of weeks now. Can contain potent anti-oxidant compounds (abbreviated ECG, GCG, EGC, and EGCG) that might help protect the skin from free radicals. Honey is moisturising and antibacterial and beta glucan is a soothing humectant, so they're both fantastic to have in here. Formulated without: Colourants, fragrance, mineral oil, nuts, parabens, phthalates, sulphates and talc.

Essential oils don't have many skin benefits, they're usually included as a fragrance additive and can actually be quite irritating for the skin. This is a nourishing, creamy mask with oat pieces that I enjoy slapping on before a shower in the winter and then rinsing off after I get out to prevent water loss from the warm environment, but also to give my skin that 'pep' it needs in the morning, so it's less dry and tired! You have your peptides, which can plump the skin and maybe help stimulate collagen production, the topical collagen (as discussed) and niacinamide to boost up ceramide production in the skin and help tackle discolouration. I love all things FAB (most of the time) but I am always nervous to use anything with the word “cream” on my combination-but-leans-oily-especially-in-summer skin.Putting the term beauty sleep to the test, First Aid Beauty creates the Ultra Repair Collagen Firming cream.

First Aid Beauty's Firming Cream with Peptides, Niacinamide + Collagen hydrates to help visibly firm skin. Infused with colloidal oatmeal, sodium hyaluronate, niacinamide and a peptide blend, it smooths fine lines, firms skin and delivers a bucketload of moisture. There's no fragrance in this product, or essential oils, just some botanicals, so if you have no issues with those, this should be suitable for sensitive skin too. Based on the ingredients included, "First Aid Beauty - Ultra Repair Firming Collagen Cream" works well for moisturizing the skin. You have the base-level ingredients from the original Ultra Repair Cream in here like ceramides, colloidal oat, shea butter, squalane, fatty alcohols and glycerin but it's elevated to be more of a well-ageing face cream option.

What I really liked about this oil was that despite containing all those lovely moisturising ingredients, it didn't feel heavy or greasy on my skin at all. The concentration of about 2% is effective for supporting the skin barrier and evening out the skin tone. One thing I want to flag up though, give how this is marketed and who it's marketed to: it contains eucalyptus oil.

First Aid Beauty Ultra Repair Firming Collagen Cream is a luxurious, skin-plumping Collagen moisturiser that hydrates and helps visibly firm skin. Supercharged with peptides, this multi-benefit moisturiser minimises the look of fine lines and supports the illusion of a bouncy, collagen-rich complexion, while niacinamide promotes a more even appearance. In this concentration, panthenol works effectively to improve the skin barrier and reduce inflammation. I have extremely dry and sensitive skin, and this product keeps me so hydrated throughout the whole day. Emollients in this formulation (ceramide np, pentapeptide-34 trifluoroacetate, caprylic/capric triglyceride, dimethicone and squalane) help to reduce the moisture loss from the skin.
