A night cream meant mainly to moisturize, Shu Uemura B-G Recharging Night Cream focuses on ingredients such as “advanced night lipids and Depsea Water.”  They claim that overnight, your first night, your skin will become soft, smooth, and supple.  And with continued use, you will see benefits in the anti aging department.

Though they try to focus on naming two ingredients and describing two basic ingredients that don’t actually exist anywhere outside Shu Uemura or for that matter promote wrinkle reduction or anti aging benefits, the truth is their formula is made up largely of fillers, not moisturizers, not wrinkle reducing ingredients, not anti aging ingredients of any kind, not even antioxidants.  They also have alcohol and other ingredients that may actually do damage to the skin rather than good.
