Our review
A classic drugstore day-and-night cream with sodium hyaluronate and shea butter, preserved with a formaldehyde releaser and parabens, and perfumed.

Packaging and what the product is
The photo on the brand’s site shows a jar from the Aquacell line, sold as a firming cream for day and night use.
Ingredient analysis
After water come the emollients ethylhexyl stearate and decyl oleate, then glycerin. Polyglyceryl-3 dicitrate/stearate, cetearyl alcohol and glyceryl stearate form the emulsion. Shea butter, vitamin E acetate and sodium hyaluronate (a humectant) are the care ingredients, with nasturtium and hydrolysed wild pansy extracts lower on the list. Dimethicone, xanthan gum and carbomer shape the texture.
What to watch out for
The preservative system combines DMDM hydantoin, a formaldehyde releaser, with methylparaben, propylparaben and phenoxyethanol. All are permitted in EU cosmetics within limits, but formaldehyde releasers are a known allergen for people already sensitised to formaldehyde, and EU rules require a specific warning above a set threshold. The product also contains perfume (parfum).
What users say
We did not find a meaningful number of recent, published reviews of this exact Aquacell cream on major Polish retail sites, so we do not quote a rating. Check the label of the jar you buy, as the formula may have been updated.
Who it may suit
People looking for an inexpensive, perfumed moisturiser. Those with a formaldehyde or fragrance allergy should choose a different formula.
