PALACIO Lavender Face Cream 50ml

Palacio lavender face cream, 50 ml

Face cream with narrow-leaved lavender oil in a 50 ml package, produced under the code PAL0615. The formula is based on water with glycerin and ethylhexyl stearate, and as key ingredients, the manufacturer lists lavender oil, panthenol, tocopheryl acetate, which is vitamin E, hydrolyzed elastin, and soluble collagen. The manufacturer targets the cream for dry and combination skin and recommends using it in the morning and evening on the face, neck, and décolletage. The most recognizable feature is the scent: lavender is immediately noticeable and either you like it or you don’t. It’s worth knowing this before purchasing. The consistency is creamy but not heavy, and panthenol and glycerin soothe the feeling of tightness after washing the face. The manufacturer also publishes a full list of INCI, along with preservatives and acidity regulators listed by name.

Ingredients

The full INCI list provided by the manufacturer:

• Aqua, Paraffinum Liquidum, Glycerin, Ethylhexyl Stearate
• Cetearyl Alcohol, Glyceryl Stearate, Ceteareth-20, PEG-40 Hydrogenated Castor Oil, Carbomer
• Panthenol (panthenol), Tocopheryl Acetate (vitamin E)
• Hydrolyzed Elastin, Soluble Collagen, Lavandula Angustifolia Oil (narrow-leaved lavender oil)
• Preservatives and regulators: Benzyl Alcohol, Potassium Sorbate, Sodium Benzoate, Phenoxyethanol, Ethylhexylglycerin, Sodium Citrate, Citric Acid
• Others: Parfume, Polyacrylamide, C13-14 Isoparaffin, Laureth-7

The first thing in this list is Lavandula Angustifolia Oil, narrow-leaved lavender oil, which is a species commonly used in cosmetics and aromatherapy. It is listed alongside the fragrance composition, not instead of it, so the scent of the cream is built by both. The second is the presence of hydrolyzed elastin and soluble collagen. The manufacturer lists both among the key ingredients. These are protein moisturizing ingredients that work on the surface of the skin. The third noteworthy point is the preservatives and acidity regulators: benzyl alcohol, potassium sorbate, sodium benzoate, phenoxyethanol, ethylhexylglycerin, sodium citrate, and citric acid are listed by name, so the entire protective system of this cream is visible in the list. For reactive skin, this part of the list (along with the oil and fragrance composition) is the one worth reviewing first.

For whom

This cream is for those who like the scent of lavender and are looking for an everyday cosmetic for dry or combination skin - this is how the manufacturer addresses it. The consistency is creamy but not heavy, and panthenol and glycerin soothe the feeling of tightness after washing. The manufacturer recommends using it not only on the face but also on the neck and décolletage, so one package serves all three areas at once. It recommends two applications a day, morning and evening, and when planning a supply, it’s worth considering this. A key note before purchasing concerns the scent: the composition includes both narrow-leaved lavender oil and a fragrance composition, so this is not a cosmetic for someone looking for a fragrance-free version or for those allergic to essential oils. For very reactive skin, start with a patch test on the forearm.

Frequently asked questions

How much cream is in the package and how long can it be used?

The package contains 50 ml of cream, and the manufacturer leads this variant under the code PAL0615. The symbol for the period of usability after opening is printed on the package you will receive - it indicates how long to use the cream after the first opening, and it counts from that moment, not from the date of purchase.

Does the cream smell strongly of lavender?

The scent is pronounced. In the composition, you will find narrow-leaved lavender oil, and alongside it, a fragrance composition, so the aroma is built by both. If you are looking for a fragrance-free cosmetic or avoid essential oils, this cream will not be suitable - and it’s better to know this before purchasing.

For what skin type is this cream?

The manufacturer states dry and combination skin. The formula is based on water with glycerin, and panthenol and vitamin E are responsible for hydration and antioxidant protection. The cream can be used on the face, neck, and décolletage - the manufacturer lists all three areas in the instructions.

How to use the cream?

The manufacturer recommends applying an appropriate amount to cleansed skin of the face, neck, and décolletage, gently massaging in circular motions until fully absorbed, and using it in the morning and evening. It explicitly states to avoid contact with the eyes - with a cream containing essential oil, this is an important note.

Safety and storage

The cream is intended for external use only. Avoid contact with eyes, and if the product gets into the eye, rinse it thoroughly with clean water. Before the first use, it is advisable to do a patch test on a small area of skin, especially with reactive skin - the composition contains a fragrance composition and preservatives, and each of these ingredients may cause irritation in some individuals. Do not apply the cream to damaged skin and discontinue use if a reaction occurs. Store the package closed, at room temperature, away from direct sunlight and out of reach of children.

The cream is a cosmetic for external use - it is not a medicine or supplement and does not replace any element of the diet or medical advice.
