A member asked:
Could you tell me what is the most common difference between moisturizing creams and anti aging creams ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
See below: Moisturizers are designed to make the outer layer of your skin softer and more elastic by increasing the hydration level of your skin. Anti-aging creams may include conventional moisturising ingredients. They also usually contain specific anti-aging ingredients, such as: Retinol, epidermal growth factor, chemical peels, peptides, coenzyme Q10, argireline, vitamin C etc.
