Review

Results you may expect from using 111SKIN Space Defence Bright Eye Lift Gel NAC Y2:

Based on the ingredient analysis by CreamScan, these are the key benefits you can expect from using 111SKIN Space Defence Bright Eye Lift Gel NAC Y2:

  • Moderate moisturizing. It has a moisturizing rating of 5.8 out of 10.
  • Little anti-wrinkle effect: 111SKIN Space Defence Bright Eye Lift Gel NAC Y2 has an anti-wrinkle rating of 0.4 out of 10, so you may expect a positive, although insignificant, effect on wrinkles.
  • Antioxidant protection.

How moisturizing is it?

Quite moisturizing: 111SKIN Space Defence Bright Eye Lift Gel NAC Y2 has a moisturizing rating of 5.8 out of 10.

Is it more humectant or occlusive? Significantly more humectant. It has a low occlusivity of 1.6 out of 10 and a maximum humectancy of 10 out of 10, primarily due to the high content of Glycerin (est. ≈7.5%), Sorbitol (est. ≈5.0%) and Aloe Barbadensis Extract (est. ≈2.5%).

Please refer to the Ratings section below for details of the moisturizing rating calculation.

Anti-wrinkle efficacy

According to CreamScan analysis, 111SKIN Space Defence Bright Eye Lift Gel NAC Y2 has a minimal anti-wrinkle rating of 0.4 out of 10. It contains one ingredient with proven anti-wrinkle efficacy: Niacinamide (est. ≈0.3%),
 one of the most effective and well-researched anti-wrinkle ingredients.
 
Among others, 111SKIN Space Defence Bright Eye Lift Gel NAC Y2 also contains some ingredients marketed as effective in reducing wrinkles, specifically Acetyl Hexapeptide-8, Sodium Ascorbyl Phosphate, and Caffeine. However, the studies supporting the anti-wrinkle claims of these ingredients provide insufficient evidence of efficacy according to CreamScan Research Evaluation Standards. Therefore, these ingredients do not contribute to the anti-wrinkle rating.
 
Moisturizers, when used regularly, are proven to prevent wrinkle formation and even reduce existing wrinkles. Therefore, this product, like any other moisturizer, could deliver additional anti-wrinkle efficacy through its moisturizing action.
 

Please refer to the Ratings section below for details of the anti-wrinkle rating calculation.

Antioxidant benefits

We estimate that 111SKIN Space Defence Bright Eye Lift Gel NAC Y2 is rich (> 3%) in antioxidants, specifically Aloe Barbadensis Extract (est. ≈2.5%).

A key benefit of antioxidants is their ability to reduce oxidative stress caused by free radicals and therefore prevent accelerated skin aging. Studies also show that antioxidants can protect against environmental damage such as UV radiation and pollution, and help reduce inflammation and skin redness.

Ingredients explained

Water
Est. %75
Function
Origin
The most used ingredient in skincare. Its concentration defines the product texture: rich creams may have about 50% of water while a light jelly about 90%. Water doesn’t moisturize the skin by itself and is used in skincare as a solvent for other ingredients.

Est. %7.5
Function
Origin

The most popular moisturizing ingredient in the world. It is a powerful humectant – cheap yet very effective.

Sorbitol
Est. %5

Isopropyl Myristate
Est. %0.3
