depology Matriplex™ Peptide Intense Cream | Infused with Matrixyl® 3000 | Matrixyl® | Synthe’6® | and Matrixyl® Morphomics® | Hydrating Facial Moisturizer | Improves Apearance of Fine Lines

Love this product and use with the serums.

This really works as promised!

I do like this product. It leaves the skin feeling smooth and hydrated. It is a light cream and once applied it feels like nothing is on. A little does go a long way which is good because it is on the expensive side. 4 stars for price otherwise a good product.

I’ve been using this depology Matriplex™ Peptide Intense Cream for a little while now and it’s absolutely wonderful.At first I thought it looked like it would be really heavy and greasy. It’s actually very lightweight and absorbs really really well into my dry skin. It is a little greasy for the first 10 minutes or so after application, but after that, it’s just incredibly moisturizing. I haven’t noticed much change with fine lines yet, but I’ll give it some more time as my dry skin loves it.

I've tried another Depology product with Matrixyl 3000 before and really liked it. So, I decided to try this Depology Matriplex Peptide Intense Cream which has a Matrixyl complex. I hadn't heard of all the ingredients, so I looked them up on the brand website. Matrixyl 3000, which is a trademarked blend that includes the synthetic peptides palmitoyl tripeptide-1 and palmitoyl tetrapeptide-7, is said to work on fine lines and skin texture and firmness. Synthe 6 is said to target deeper wrinkles, and Matrixyl Morphomics is said to target vertical lines. The only ingredient I don't love is the Melaleuca Alternifolia (tea tree), which I think is better for other skin types than my maturing skin. I will update when I've had a chance to use it longer, but so far so good.

I was a little nervous that "intense" meant it might irritate my skin, but not at all!! This is very moisturizing but not too heavy. It absorbs well and leaves my skin feeling very soft and plumped. I do feel I've seen some improvement with fine lines. I like using it at night because I feel like that lets it get the full affect. This is the second product I've tried from Depology and both have done what they promised, which is impressive.

We are very serious about our skincare. We have tried dozens of different night creams. My partner gets very dry after we do clay masks at night, and a lot of the moisturizers we've used have left a lot to be desired. This one, not only makes our skin look great the morning after, but everything from the texture, consistency, feel, smell, etc... are just perfect. It just FEELS both effective and luxurious. We ran out of it so fast, because it's the only one either of us want to use. I don't say this about a lot of skincare products, but this is a truly wonderful cream!

Had lots of hope for this stuff after reading that it contained all 3 forms of matrixyl - morphomics for vertical lines (the one more difficult to find and that I was most interested in). 3000 and Synthe 6. It contains hyaluronic acid and niacinamide, as well.This cream on the website claims to reduce visibility of fine lines and saids that their clinical trial showed 17.55% improvement in wrinkles in 2 weeks. The best of all of their matrixyl products. Not that I need a calculator or a wrinkle molding mask to affirm this. I see no difference. Zero, zip, nada. But, I'll finish the jar.On the upside, it's a decent moisturizer and a little goes a long way.The downside is that instructions are slightly confusing. It says to allow it to soak in and apply other products afterward. However, because it's a cream and moisturizes, I can still feel it on my face hours afterward. No product is going to penetrate that.Don't use at the same time as vitamin C or other acids. It says that it is compatible with retinol. Again, absorption of retinol would probably be reduced due to the barrier of the cream. However, using retinol about 15 to 30 min after applying this seems to still have some effect, as my skin did its usual monthly peel. It's just not as much as usualBut, so far, hyaluronic acid and some Cerave ceramide lotion would have the same effect for me. If, when I finish the jar I see a difference, I'll edit this review.
