Does Ellana Mineral Cosmetics Stay Fresh Multi Mist work?

Based on the ingredient list analysis by CreamScan AI, these are the key benefits you can expect from using Ellana Mineral Cosmetics Stay Fresh Multi Mist:

  • Light moisturizing. It has a moisturizing rating of 2.5 out of 10.
  • Significant anti-wrinkle efficacy. With an anti-wrinkle rating of 6.0 out of 10, Ellana Mineral Cosmetics Stay Fresh Multi Mist is effective in minimizing wrinkles.

  • Antioxidant protection.

Basic moisturizer for oily skin

According to CreamScan analysis, Ellana Mineral Cosmetics Stay Fresh Multi Mist is lightly moisturizing, with a moisturizing rating of 2.5 out of 10.

Is it more humectant or occlusive? Purely humectant. It has zero occlusivity (we didn't find any occlusive ingredients on the ingredient list) and a moderate humectancy of 5.0 out of 10, primarily due to the high content of Niacinamide (est. ≈4.0%).

This product, when used alone as a moisturizer, can provide light humectant hydration in a fast-absorbing formula without any occlusive ingredients. This could work for people with oily skin who need a basic level of hydration.

Tip: Certain studies suggest that humectants alone may not effectively moisturize the skin. If you use this product as your only moisturizer, we recommend following it with one that contains at least some occlusive ingredients.

Since it contains a moderate amount of humectants, it can also positively contribute to the moisturizing efficacy of any skincare routine when used as a step before applying the main moisturizer.

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

Significant anti-wrinkle efficacy

According to CreamScan analysis, Ellana Mineral Cosmetics Stay Fresh Multi Mist has a high anti-wrinkle rating of 6.0 out of 10.

It contains one ingredient with proven anti-wrinkle efficacy: Niacinamide (est. ≈4.0%), 
 one of the most effective and well-researched anti-wrinkle ingredients. A clinical study involving 30 participants (Kawada et al.) confirmed that a cream with 4% niacinamide reduced the average depth of wrinkles around the eyes by 9% after 8 weeks of use, compared to a vehicle (the same formulation without niacinamide).
 
Among others, Ellana Mineral Cosmetics Stay Fresh Multi Mist also contains contains Acetyl Glucosamine and Centella Asiatica Extract, 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 contribute to the anti-wrinkle rating.
 

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

Rich in skin-protecting antioxidants

We estimate that Ellana Mineral Cosmetics Stay Fresh Multi Mist is rich (> 3%) in antioxidants, specifically Niacinamide (est. ≈4.0%) and Centella Asiatica Extract (est. ≈2.0%).

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.

Skin soothing and calming potential

Based on the ingredient list analysis, Ellana Mineral Cosmetics Stay Fresh Multi Mist is rich (> 5%) in soothing ingredients, particularly Niacinamide (est. ≈4.0%) and Centella Asiatica Extract (est. ≈2.0%).

When applied to the skin, compounds of soothing ingredients, such as triglycerides, phospholipids, fatty acids, phenolic compounds, and antioxidants, work together to soothe the skin through various mechanisms: reducing inflammation, promoting wound healing, repairing the skin barrier, and providing antimicrobial and antioxidant activities.
