3.3 fl.oz./100mL $20.00
I am not sure if you have ever thought about trying to help de-age the skin on your hands, but let me tell you I have. As I have aged I have certainly noticed that the skin on my hands has certainly started to look rather bad, with more sun damage, some fine lines and a general lack of firmness. As I take care of the skin on my face I should take care of the skin on my hands too, wouldn't you want to also? Well Deciem, the folks who brought you the wonderful brand The Ordinary, also has a high end brand called The Chemistry Brand that has specialized products for certain areas of the body. I tried out their hand cream that promised results in as little as 11 days and these are the results.
The Chemistry Brand Hand Chemistry comes in 3 sizes. I purchased the middle size of 3.3 fl.oz./100mL for $20.00. This targeted and concentrated multi-functional hand cream visibly targets the following 8 signs of hand aging simultaneously: firmness, elasticity, smoothness, texture, hydration, evenness, density and brightness. The 19.5% active complex concentration improves the look of hands in just 11 days. It contains a biotechnological derivative of the mushroom Tremella Fuciformis Sporocarp, which has been shown to be 400x more moisturizing than hyaluronic acid. When using it, skin moisture content can be increased by 11% in just 12 hours due to the inclusion of an algae ferment. This increase equates to 21% in 24 hours and 32% in 30 days. Also, Sacha Inchi oil and Maize Propanediol work together to form a protective moisture barrier ensuring that the skin is able to hold onto this new-found moisture. It also includes a Copper Peptide Complex, of Biological GHK that in 11 days increases Skin Collagen Type 1 content by 179%, Collagen Type II Content by 194%, Tropoelastin Synthesis by 57% and Elastin Synthesis by 190%. In 60 days, it increases Total Collagen Density by 760%, Skin Firmness by 1200% and Skin Elasticity by 60%. It also contains a biotechnological derivative of Plantago Lanceolata with reduces the appearance of dark spots in just 2 months. In 6 days Collagen-I is increased by 386%, and Elastin Content by 76%. In 31 days Skin Firmness is increased by 30.9% and Skin Thickness by 15%.
Here is a photo of my left hand before I started using the cream:
Here are photos of my left hand after I used the cream for 11 days:
Here are are results from the website that show a difference in just 10 days:
I definitely noticed a huge difference in how my hands looked after the 11 days. The prescribed use is twice a day, in the morning and evening. This cream is very lightweight and non-greasy. It absorbs into the skin easily. After using it for 11 days I noticed my hands were definitely more hydrated, the skin is firmer, smoother, has better overall texture, elasticity and the sun damage has lightened. It is always hard to get the same lighting for photographs. But I can definitely say I have noticed a difference. I will continue to use this cream and purchase it again. I will also come back and update this after a month and show how my hands look after that amount of time. All in all so far I am extremely happy with the results and that doesn't surprise me considering I am always happy with anything I purchase from Deciem. I will likely purchase the larger size cream next time, as it is a cost saver.
Update on 1/28/2021: Here is a newer photo of my hand after another couple of weeks of using the cream and I can definitely see more of a difference. This cream does wonders. My hand looks great.
As you can see the lines in my hand have decreased as well as any dark spots. The skin generally looks better all around. I feel that my skin is much softer and more supple. The fine lines that I had look decreased. I am going to keep using this cream and see how well it looks after another month.
