Regenerating Hand Cream

Hands are one of the first areas to reveal the passage of time. Regenerating Hand Cream 40 mL by Grown Alchemist has been formulated as a genuine anti-ageing treatment for hands: a deeply hydrating cream, enriched with biomimetic polypeptides, next-generation botanical actives and essential oils that help smooth texture, improve firmness and give skin a visibly younger, more cared-for appearance.

Key benefits

• Smooths roughness and improves skin texture, revealing smoother, more even-looking hands.
• Helps reduce the appearance of fine lines and finely wrinkled, “crepey” skin.
• Provides intense, long-lasting hydration thanks to a combination of plant emollients and biomimetic humectants.
• Helps improve elasticity and a feeling of firmness with targeted-action polypeptides.
• Protects against the effects of free radicals thanks to antioxidants such as vitamin E and botanical extracts.
• An elevated sensorial experience: a luxurious, fast-absorbing cream texture with an invigorating scent of orange, rosemary and sage.

Perceived results

In an independent user trial (2023), over 4 weeks and with 121 participants:

• 77 % said their hands looked younger after use.
• 92 % said their skin felt nourished.
• 76 % perceived the skin on their hands as firmer.

Texture and sensorial experience

The formula has a luxurious cream texture: rich and enveloping on application, yet surprisingly comfortable and never heavy once massaged in. It absorbs without leaving a greasy feel, making it ideal to use throughout the day. Its aromatic scent – a blend of orange, rosemary and sage with herbal and citrus nuances – brings an immediate sense of freshness, mental clarity and wellbeing.

High-performance active complex

Biomimetic polypeptides (Arginine/Lysine Polypeptide)

The biomimetic polypeptides work by taking inspiration from the skin's natural mechanisms. They help improve roughness, smoothing the skin's surface and helping reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, while promoting more elastic, younger-looking skin.

PLANT-EGF and rambutan extract (Nephelium Lappaceum Extract)

The presence of PLANT-EGF (a plant-derived growth factor, as stated in the product's communication) and rambutan extract work in synergy to improve the look of tired, finely wrinkled skin. Rambutan, an upcycled biotech active, is designed to reduce the appearance of “crepey” skin, giving a firmer, more toned look.

Echinacea and botanical antioxidants

The complex with echinacea and other plant extracts provides antioxidant defence against free radicals, one of the key factors in skin ageing. Combined with tocopherol (vitamin E), it helps preserve skin integrity, a feeling of comfort and a more even, healthy-looking complexion.

Plant emollients and smart hydrating system

Oils such as grape seed, sweet almond, jojoba and soybean, together with caprylic/capric triglyceride, provide skin-friendly lipids that strengthen the skin barrier and improve softness to the touch. Humectants such as glycerin and saccharide isomerate help retain water in the epidermis, providing long-lasting hydration and more supple skin.

Orange, rosemary and sage essential oils

The aromatic profile is built from Citrus Aurantium Dulcis (Orange) Peel Extract, Rosmarinus Officinalis (Rosemary) Leaf Oil and Salvia Sclarea (Clary) Oil, complemented by other herbal and floral essential oils. This synergy creates an invigorating fragrance that turns every application into a little aromatherapy ritual for your hands.

Who is it for?

Regenerating Hand Cream 40 mL is suitable for all skin types, including sensitive skin, and is especially interesting for those who:

• Want to treat or prevent visible signs of ageing on the hands (fine lines, uneven texture, thin or “crepey”-looking skin).
• Are looking for a daily-use hand cream with an anti-ageing focus and a comfortable texture.
• Frequently expose their hands to external aggressors (constant washing, temperature changes, outdoor work, etc.) and need more advanced care.

How to use

• Apply a small amount to clean, dry hands.
• Massage gently until fully absorbed, paying special attention to the back of the hands, knuckles and nail contour.
• Repeat as often as needed throughout the day, especially after washing your hands.
• For a more intensive effect, apply a generous layer at night as a restorative ritual, leaving it to work while you sleep.
