Marini SkinSolutions Age Intervention Face Cream

It is one of the most targeted options available, because it does not simply moisturise — it uses phytoestrogen isoflavones from soy and red clover alongside topical interferon alpha 2 to address the appearance of skin that has changed as oestrogen levels have fallen. It is the moisturiser Marini SkinSolutions selects for dry and post-menopausal skin within its Skin Care Management System. Skin is individual, so the right cream depends on how dry and how reactive yours currently is.

Yes. It is designed for daily morning and evening use on dry, dehydrated and sensitive skin. The formula is fragrance free, dye free, paraben free and alcohol free, and the meadowfoam, shea and jojoba base is deliberately comforting. As with any new active product, patch test behind the ear or on the inner forearm first if your skin is very reactive.

Yes. Topical interferon alpha 2 helps reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles and enhances overall brightness, while CoEnzyme Q10 is associated with improved elasticity and a reduced appearance of wrinkle depth. The immediate hydration also plumps the surface, so lines look softer straight away, with texture continuing to improve over 4–8 weeks of consistent use.

Topical interferon alpha 2 (INCI: sh-Polypeptide-46) is an exclusively patented ingredient developed by Marini SkinSolutions. In this cosmetic formula it works to help reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles and to enhance the overall brightness of the complexion. It is paired with the isoflavones so the two work alongside each other rather than in isolation.

This is a rich, occlusive cream aimed at dry, combination and mature skin, so it is usually too heavy for oily or congested skin across the whole face. If your T-zone is oily but your cheeks are dry, apply it only where you need the comfort. Transformation Face Cream is the lighter alternative within the same range.

Yes, and it works well as the final comforting step. Apply your vitamin C serum in the morning and your retinoid in the evening, allow each to absorb, then apply the cream on top. Because the base is so cushioning, many people find it makes a retinoid routine far easier to tolerate. Always follow with a broad-spectrum SPF each morning.

They are visible particles of the soy and red clover plant extracts — a normal feature of the formula rather than a fault. They disperse as you massage the cream into the skin and are not felt on the surface once absorbed.

Yes — it is the same product under a new brand name. Jan Marini Skin Research now trades as Marini SkinSolutions, so depending on stock rotation the jar you receive may carry either name. The brand has not announced a reformulation alongside the rename; the current ingredient list is shown in full under Other Ingredients so you can compare it directly against the jar you already have. Used sparingly morning and evening, a 28g jar typically lasts around eight to twelve weeks.

We would not recommend it without medical advice. The formula contains pregnenolone acetate and phytoestrogen isoflavones from soy and red clover, and hormone-related ingredients are generally avoided during pregnancy and breastfeeding. Please check with your GP, midwife or obstetrician before using this cream, and consider a simple fragrance-free moisturiser in the meantime.
