What is It?

StriVectin Instant Moisture Repair is a cream that claims to provide moisture unlike anything you have ever experienced. It combines the surface moisture of emollients with the in-depth moisture of osmosis and peptides. It claims to work both instantly and over time, pumping water into the skin, layer by layer, and increasing the amount of hydration in the skin 30% in the first hour of its use. We know that hydrated skin looks younger as wrinkles and fine lines are filled in from the inside.

Conclusion

We are intrigued by this cream. Not much information could be found about osmolytes, which are compounds that aid in osmosis, and play a role in maintaining cell volume and fluid balance. It makes sense that they would help the skin retain water and maintain a healthy balance. Peptides have been proven to effectively reduce wrinkles and increase collagen. If you are seeking moisture, this product might be good for you. Not all of the ingredients are guaranteed to work, but we would assume that a product that contains peptides will aid in anti-aging, whether or not the osmolytes work as well.
