Shiseido Benefiance Wrinkle Smoothing Cream

Although I had tried only three 1.5ml samples of this product, they were enough to see the picture. The cream itself has a light texture, it is velvety and close to a runny substance. However, those facts do not prevent it from showing rather mediocre absorbing properties: it takes about 20 to 30 minutes for it to be fully 'soaked' by the skin without any after-effect. Thus I'd not recommend using it as a late evening routine. The cream has a very nice scent, a bouquet of citrus and floral notes, that linger upon the skin. I've used the product 6 times (each sample lasted for 2 applications), it greatly addresses the issues of fatigued skin and minor wrinkles, but does not work magic promised by the producer (i.e. no wrinkles after 2 weeks of application). The cream also would be a bad companion on a sunny day or on the beach - it does not sport any SPF. The product has alcohol and silicones (dimethicone) in its ingredients, which basically meant that in the long term it will contribute to drying of the skin. In addition, lacks any information on natural ingredients or cruelty free, or paraben free status.
To summarize, I am not advocating for this beauty item - it is pricey, artificial and ambiguous in terms of deliverables.
