Have you been noticing all of the rave reviews for Introstem lately? This skincare brand has been making waves for its innovative and high-performance formulas. Each one showcases some of the most cutting-edge ingredients around. 

However, while there’s no denying that Introstem’s skincare looks and sounds good, does it actually produce the results that you’d hope to see from such high-end formulas? I put the Introstem Aqua Collection under scrutiny to find out…

What’s the Introstem Aqua Collection All About?

Take a look at the different Introstem skincare collections available and you’ll notice that each one has been designed to meet a specific range of needs. The Introstem Aqua Collection focuses on two key components of skincare; hydration and the appearance of aging. 

The two go hand-in-hand together – dehydration accelerates skin aging while skin aging commonly leads to dehydration. It’s a vicious cycle and breaking it could be transformational for your complexion, both now and in the long run.

What’s Actually in the Introstem Aqua Collection?

Here’s a brief summary of each of the products that you’ll find in the Introstem Aqua Collection:

  • Aqua Silk Capsules – an encapsulated serum designed to be used once a week. It promises to leave the skin feeling smoother and deeply hydrated.
  • Aqua Face and Neck Cream – a lush moisturizer that tackles the appearance of aging to leave the skin looking fuller and firmer. Designed to be used daily.
  • AquaLift Anti-Aging Essence Solution – a serum-like solution that works to immediately diminish the appearance of crow’s feet and forehead wrinkles.
  • Aqua Age Reforming Alpha Solution – a specialized serum that instantly minimizes the visibility of fine lines and surface wrinkles around the mouth, nose, and eyes.
  • Aqua Age Reforming Beta Solution – a serum-esque solution that provides instant and intense hydration, leaving the skin looking fuller, plumper, and brighter. Designed to be applied after the Aqua Age Reforming Alpha Solution.

Noteworthy Ingredients in the Introstem Aqua Collection

So far, the Introstem Aqua Collection seems pretty impressive. Each of the products within has a place in many skincare routines.

However, in order to truly decipher what makes a skincare product tick, a closer look at its ingredients is a must. Are they full of irritants? Do they contain cheap fillers? Have the active ingredients been backed by science?

In the case of the Introstem Aqua Collection, each ingredient list reads surprisingly well. You’ll find several noteworthy ingredients near the top of each ingredient list. This means that those ingredients have been used in a high concentration in that product. From sodium hyaluronate to acetyl hexapeptide-8 to vitamins A and E, these are all reputable ingredients that are known for providing proven skin benefits.

What makes these Introstem products stand out even more is that they’re also infused with ingredients and ingredient combinations that you don’t often see in skincare. Sure, a product containing sodium hyaluronate may no longer be a big deal. However, combine that with Szechuan pepper extract, which has an instant lifting effect on the complexion, as well as lavender extract, which quickly calms and brightens the look of the skin, and it’s hardly surprising that the Introstem Aqua Silk Capsules stand out from the crowd in the way that they do.

How Well Does the Introstem Aqua Collection Work?

Now for the nitty gritty…do the products in the Introstem Aqua Collection actually work as expected?

Let’s start with the Aqua Silk Capsules. The glowing reviews are more than justifiable. This is a gorgeous serum that has the silkiest consistency, which is likely how it earned its name. It really does have a lifting effect on the complexion while also leaving the skin looking brighter and fuller. It’s now a firm favorite, making it a shame that it can only be used once a week!

As for the Aqua Face and Neck Cream…this is now my favorite moisturizer. It contains the perfect balance of humectants, occlusives, and emollients – everything you’d want to see from a thoughtfully crafted face cream. I use it day and night. It’s light enough to apply makeup over. At the same time, it’s also hydrating enough to keep my dry skin feeling smooth and soft until morning.

Now, let’s talk about the three solutions. They all do as they say, providing instant visible results that feel almost magical. While I initially thought that the Aqua Age Reforming Beta Solution wouldn’t be able to do much for my skin after I first used the Aqua Age Reforming Alpha Solution, I was wrong. It definitely added an extra level of luminescence to my skin. While they can be used as standalones, it’s well worth pairing them together. 

Final Thoughts

In all honesty, I wasn’t expecting to be quite this enamored by the Introstem Aqua Collection. Each product truly impresses in its own way. While you may not want to go all out and purchase the entire collection in one go, pick and choose the right products for your skin and you’ll have the ability to make some big changes to your complexion. These carefully crafted products, with their powerful and proven ingredients, more than deserve all of the praise that they have been receiving!
