Explanation:
Text from Juvena: TINTED DELINER SPF 8 is the perfect combination of a strong anti-wrinkle treatment with a tinted cream. Based on the revolutionary delinertm complex, this tinted anti-ageing cream fills out the wrinkles from within, leaving the skin smoothed and moisturised. Lightly tinted, it returns a natural colour to the skin by giving it a fresh and radiant look.
