Review

Results you may expect from using ASIS-TOBE Pure Mineral Sun Cream:

Based on the ingredient analysis by CreamScan, these are the key benefits you can expect from using ASIS-TOBE Pure Mineral Sun Cream:

  • Light moisturizing. It has a moisturizing rating of 3.1 out of 10.

How moisturizing is it?

Lightly moisturizing: ASIS-TOBE Pure Mineral Sun Cream has a moisturizing rating of 3.1 out of 10.

Is it more humectant or occlusive? Rather humectant. It has a low occlusivity of 1.1 out of 10 and a moderate humectancy of 5.1 out of 10, primarily due to the high content of Propanediol (est. ≈3.0%).

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

Anti-wrinkle efficacy

According to CreamScan analysis, ASIS-TOBE Pure Mineral Sun Cream has a zero anti-wrinkle rating.

It contains Camellia Sinensis Leaf Extract, an ingredient marketed as effective in reducing wrinkles. However, the studies supporting the anti-wrinkle claims of Camellia Sinensis Leaf Extract provide insufficient evidence of its efficacy according to CreamScan Research Evaluation Standards. Therefore, this ingredient does not generate 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 some anti-wrinkle effects through its moisturizing action.

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