Does Dr.G Baby Mild UP Sun SPF35 PA+++ work?

Based on the ingredient list analysis by CreamScan AI, these are the key benefits you can expect from using Dr.G Baby Mild UP Sun SPF35 PA+++:

  • Light moisturizing. It has a moisturizing rating of 2.4 out of 10.
  • Moderate to high sun protection for daily outdoor activities

Slight Moisturizing When Used Alone

According to CreamScan analysis, Dr.G Baby Mild UP Sun SPF35 PA+++ is lightly moisturizing, with a moisturizing rating of 2.4 out of 10.

Is it more humectant or occlusive? Rather humectant. It has a low occlusivity of 1.0 out of 10 and a moderate humectancy of 3.7 out of 10, primarily due to Propanediol (est. ≈1.9%), Salvia Hispanica Seed Extract (est. ≈0.3%) and Aluminum Hydroxide (est. ≈0.3%).

This type of product provides relatively light moisturizing on its own but can contribute to overall moisturizing efficacy when used as part of a skincare routine, alongside another moisturizer.

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

Questionable anti-wrinkle efficacy

According to CreamScan analysis, Dr.G Baby Mild UP Sun SPF35 PA+++ has a zero anti-wrinkle rating.

It contains Centella Asiatica Extract and Biosaccharide Gum-4, two ingredients often 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, can deliver some anti-wrinkle effects through its moisturizing action.

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

Moderate to high sun protection for daily outdoor activities

With an SPF of 35, Dr.G Baby Mild UP Sun SPF35 PA+++ provides moderate to high sun protection, making it suitable for daily use during moderate sun exposure, such as commuting or light outdoor activities.

This level of SPF offers excellent defense against UVB rays, blocking up to 97% of harmful radiation. When labeled as broad-spectrum, these products also protect against UVA rays, which are responsible for skin aging and hyperpigmentation.

For optimal protection, choose products labeled broad-spectrum to ensure defense against both UVA rays, which contribute to skin aging and pigmentation, and UVB rays that cause sunburn.

This level of SPF works well for skin types mildly prone to sunburn. It is particularly suitable for low-to-moderate UV index environments and non-tropical climates. However, it is not recommended for prolonged outdoor exposure or intense UV conditions. Reapplication every two hours is essential to maintain effectiveness.
