Results you may expect from using Chanel Boy De Chanel Lip Balm:

Based on the ingredient analysis by CreamScan, these are the key benefits you can expect from using Chanel Boy De Chanel Lip Balm:

  • Light moisturizing. It has a moisturizing rating of 2.6 out of 10.

How moisturizing is it?

Lightly moisturizing: Chanel Boy De Chanel Lip Balm has a moisturizing rating of 2.6 out of 10.

Is it more humectant or occlusive? Purely occlusive. It has zero humectancy (we didn't find any humectant ingredients on the ingredient list) and a moderate occlusivity of 5.3 out of 10, primarily due to the high content of Synthetic Wax (est. ≈6.0%) and Jojoba Esters (est. ≈3.0%).

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

Anti-wrinkle efficacy

According to CreamScan analysis, Chanel Boy De Chanel Lip Balm has a zero anti-wrinkle rating.

It contains Palmitoyl Tripeptide-1, an ingredient marketed as effective in reducing wrinkles. However, the studies supporting the anti-wrinkle claims of Palmitoyl Tripeptide-1 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.
