Take the skin test and I'll show you how suitable this product is for you.
Take the skin testRestore plumpness and radiance with the APLB Collagen EGF Peptide Facial Cream, powered by 29.4% COLLAGEN PEPT CEN™ for intense hydration and anti-aging benefits. Enriched with Centella Asiatica Extract and Centella 3x Complex, it soothes and moisturizes sensitive skin while protecting against irritation. The lightweight yet deeply nourishing formula includes Hyaluronic Acid, Shea Butter, and Eggplant Extract to lock in moisture, boost elasticity, and promote a healthier complexion.
Collagen EGF Peptide Facial Cream is a lightweight cream from APLB. The formula is built mainly around hydration and soothing. The ingredient list runs to 41 ingredients, each broken down in full below.
By its ingredient list the formula reads as light: water and humectants lead, with emollients kept lower in the order. The oils in it point to a dewy, emollient finish rather than a matte one. Hydration is handled by Glycerin, Butylene Glycol and Sodium Hyaluronate, humectants that pull water into the upper layers of skin rather than sealing it there.
Hydration: Very high. Ingredients that pull and hold water in the upper layers of skin, and here that comes from Glycerin, Butylene Glycol, Sodium Hyaluronate and Betaine.
Soothing: High. Ingredients aimed at visible redness and reactivity, and here that comes from Centella Asiatica Extract, Cetyl Ethylhexanoate, Beta-glucan and Asiaticoside.
On richness alone it suits Balanced skin best, and is the least natural fit for Dry and Combination (dry) skin. Nothing in the list is flagged as a common irritant, which is a reasonable starting point for reactive skin — though a patch test is still the only way to know.
The formula contributes little or nothing on antioxidant protection, oil control, brightening and tone and cell renewal. That is not a fault — most products are not meant to do everything — but if one of those is your priority, this is not the product that will address it.
Reading the full list, the formula is fragrance-free, essential-oil-free, no drying alcohol, paraben-free, silicone-free and microplastic-free. Those claims come from the ingredient list itself, not from the packaging.
It can be used morning and evening. In a routine it goes after serums. Seal in your serums with it; in the morning, sunscreen still goes on top.
This summary is generated from the product's ingredient list. It is not a review, it is not the brand's own marketing claims, and it does not replace advice from a dermatologist.
Drawn purely from the ingredient list
Scored on how rich or light the formula reads from its INCI order.
No ingredient in this formula carries a common-irritant flag, making it a reasonable option for reactive skin. A patch test is still recommended, as individual skin reactivity varies.
Based on the curated benefits documented for this product's ingredients.
Attracts and locks in moisture to keep skin plump and dewy
Boosts collagen and cell turnover to reduce fine lines and wrinkles
Calms redness, irritation, and inflammation for sensitive skin
Fades hyperpigmentation and evens out dark spots over time
Regulates sebum production to reduce shine and greasiness
None of the ingredients in this formula are associated with these benefits. This is not unusual, as most products are designed to target a limited number of concerns.
