Review

Results you may expect from using Dr. Jart Ceramidin Facial Barrier Mask:

Based on the ingredient analysis by CreamScan, these are the key benefits you can expect from using Dr. Jart Ceramidin Facial Barrier Mask:

  • Moderate moisturizing. It has a moisturizing rating of 5.5 out of 10.
  • Little anti-wrinkle effect: Dr. Jart Ceramidin Facial Barrier Mask 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?

Quite moisturizing: Dr. Jart Ceramidin Facial Barrier Mask has a moisturizing rating of 5.5 out of 10.

Is it more humectant or occlusive? Significantly more humectant. It has a low occlusivity of 1.9 out of 10 and a very high humectancy of 9.1 out of 10, primarily due to the high content of Glycerin (est. ≈6.0%).

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

Anti-wrinkle efficacy

According to CreamScan analysis, Dr. Jart Ceramidin Facial Barrier Mask has a minimal anti-wrinkle rating of 0.4 out of 10. It contains one ingredient with proven anti-wrinkle efficacy: Ectoin (est. ≈0.3%),
an amino acid-derived ingredient with average, yet proven by one study, anti-wrinkle efficacy.
Among others, Dr. Jart Ceramidin Facial Barrier Mask also contains some ingredients marketed as effective in reducing wrinkles, specifically Adenosine, Melia Azadirachta Leaf Extract, and Beta-Glucan. 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 contribute to the anti-wrinkle rating.

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

Antioxidant benefits

We estimate that Dr. Jart Ceramidin Facial Barrier Mask is rich (> 3%) in antioxidants, specifically Hydroxyacetophenone (est. ≈1.0%), Melia Azadirachta Flower Extract (est. ≈0.3%), Melia Azadirachta Leaf Extract (est. ≈0.3%), and others.

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.

Function
Origin

The most popular moisturizing ingredient in the world. It is a powerful humectant – cheap yet very effective.

Dipropylene Glycol
Est. %4
Function
Origin
A clear, colorless liquid that has several uses. One of its main functions is as a solvent. Dipropylene glycol is also used to reduce the thickness of skincare products.

Est. %3
Function
Origin

Betaine
Est. %1.3
Function
