Review

Results you may expect from using Elizabeth Arden Sheer Kiss Lip Oil:

Based on the ingredient analysis by CreamScan, these are the key benefits you can expect from using Elizabeth Arden Sheer Kiss Lip Oil:

  • Moderate moisturizing. It has a moisturizing rating of 5.0 out of 10.

How moisturizing is it?

Quite moisturizing: Elizabeth Arden Sheer Kiss Lip Oil has a moisturizing rating of 5.0 out of 10.

Is it more humectant or occlusive? It is purely occlusive. It has zero Humectancy (we didn't find any humectant ingredients on the ingredient list) and a maximum Occlusivity of 10 out of 10, primarily due to the high content of Mineral Oil (est. ≈22.0%), Beeswax (est. ≈6.0%) and Trihydroxystearin (est. ≈4.0%).

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

Anti-wrinkle efficacy

According to CreamScan analysis, Elizabeth Arden Sheer Kiss Lip Oil has a zero anti-wrinkle rating.

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