Results you may expect from using Chantecaille Stress Repair Concentrate+ Eye Cream:

Based on the ingredient analysis by CreamScan, these are the key benefits you can expect from using Chantecaille Stress Repair Concentrate+ Eye Cream:

  • Significant moisturizing. It has a moisturizing rating of 7.4 out of 10.

How moisturizing is it?

Highly moisturizing: Chantecaille Stress Repair Concentrate+ Eye Cream has a moisturizing rating of 7.4 out of 10.

Is it more humectant or occlusive? Rather humectant. It has a very high humectancy of 8.2 out of 10, primarily due to the substantial concentration of Propanediol (est. ≈4.0%) and Glycerin (est. ≈3.0%), and a high occlusivity of 6.5 out of 10, mainly due to the significant content of Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride (est. ≈9.0%).

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

Anti-wrinkle efficacy

According to CreamScan analysis, Chantecaille Stress Repair Concentrate+ Eye Cream has a zero anti-wrinkle rating.

It contains Caffeine and Acetyl Hexapeptide-8, two ingredients marketed as effective in reducing wrinkles. 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 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.
