| Verdict | Bioeffect's Hydrating Cream is the Icelandic biotech brand's day-cream gateway — barley-derived sh-Oligopeptide-1 (the brand's signature EGF), Iceland glacial water from Hordeum Vulgare seed extract, sodium hyaluronate, and DL-Alpha Tocopherol (vitamin E). 16-ingredient INCI, fragrance-free. The light water-cream format competes with K-beauty essence-creams. | The Danish design-object hand cream named for 'island.' Lovely scent, proper shea content, museum-grade packaging that earns its counter space. |
