Review

Results you may expect from using Arbonne RE9 Advanced Prepwork Hydrating Dew Cream:

Based on the ingredient analysis by CreamScan, these are the key benefits you can expect from using Arbonne RE9 Advanced Prepwork Hydrating Dew Cream:

  • Significant moisturizing. It has a moisturizing rating of 6.8 out of 10.
  • Little anti-wrinkle effect: Arbonne RE9 Advanced Prepwork Hydrating Dew Cream 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?

Highly moisturizing: Arbonne RE9 Advanced Prepwork Hydrating Dew Cream has a moisturizing rating of 6.8 out of 10.

Is it more humectant or occlusive? Significantly more humectant. It has a very high humectancy of 9.7 out of 10, primarily due to the substantial concentration of Glycerin (est. ≈4.0%) and Pyrus Malus (Apple) Fruit Extract (est. ≈3.0%), and a moderate occlusivity of 3.8 out of 10, mainly due to the significant content of Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride (est. ≈6.0%).

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

Anti-wrinkle efficacy

According to CreamScan analysis, Arbonne RE9 Advanced Prepwork Hydrating Dew Cream 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, Arbonne RE9 Advanced Prepwork Hydrating Dew Cream also contains Gluconolactone, an ingredient marketed as effective in reducing wrinkles. However, the studies supporting the anti-wrinkle claims of Gluconolactone provide insufficient evidence of its efficacy according to CreamScan Research Evaluation Standards. Therefore, this ingredient does 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 Arbonne RE9 Advanced Prepwork Hydrating Dew Cream is rich (> 3%) in antioxidants, specifically Pyrus Malus (Apple) Fruit Extract (est. ≈3.0%).

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.
