Transformula’s Mid-Life Marine Miracle Crème
Transformula’s Mid-Life Marine Miracle Crème is part of Transformula’s skin care line ‘Mid-Life’ designed to target wrinkles and other signs of aging on the skin. The line also includes a cleanser and a concentrated serum, as well as a cell cleanser and serum. The use of undersea products and plants has been shown to effectively moisturize and exfoliate the skin, and hydration is a necessary part of the anti-aging regimen. In order to truly be effective, however, we would expect to see other active ingredients that focus more on tightening the skin or producing collagen.
History of Transformula’s Mid-Life Marine Miracle Crème
Transformulas only lists the active ingredients of their products, so all we know about Mid-Life Marine Miracle Crème is that it contains Lysedine, as well as algae, sea salt, and giant sea kelp. Lysedine is patented by Transformulas, and contains a combination of marine ingredients, as well as vitamins and other ingredients. It does not contain any peptides or stem cells, which are proven to be the most effective at reducing wrinkles and signs of age.
Benefits
This product should be an effective moisturizer, since sea salt and algae are excellent moisturizers and kelp aids with hydration. What it lacks in terms of anti-aging properties, it may compensate for in terms of moisturizing the skin.
Possible side effects
There are no side effects listed in association with this product. However, when looking at possible negatives, one should consider the price – £39 for 15 ml, or about $63 for 1.7 fl. oz.
Conclusion
This product does not contain ingredients proven to reduce wrinkles and fine lines. It’s use as a moisturizer is probably not worth the high price, since the ingredients needed to hydrate the skin are not as expensive as wrinkle reducing ingredients.
