anti-aging prep and polish
Explanation:
If it's a product name, it should stay that way. The mind boggles at what we might call things like Microsoft, Excel, Frontpage if we started translating product names.

I agree with my colleague that you should not translate a product name. I you want to provide an explanation in parenthesis, I suggest the translation above.

"Skrubbekrem" seems to cover both prep and polish, see ref.
