Review

Results you may expect from using Eve Lom Radiance Antioxidant Eye Cream:

Based on the ingredient analysis by CreamScan, these are the key benefits you can expect from using Eve Lom Radiance Antioxidant Eye Cream:

  • Significant moisturizing. It has a moisturizing rating of 7.8 out of 10.
  • Little anti-wrinkle effect: Eve Lom Radiance Antioxidant Eye Cream has an anti-wrinkle rating of 0.4 out of 10, so you may expect a positive, although insignificant, effect on wrinkles.

How moisturizing is it?

Highly moisturizing: Eve Lom Radiance Antioxidant Eye Cream has a moisturizing rating of 7.8 out of 10.

Is it more humectant or occlusive? Rather humectant. It has a very high humectancy of 8.4 out of 10, primarily due to the substantial concentration of Propanediol (est. ≈4.0%) and Glycerin (est. ≈2.0%), and a high occlusivity of 7.3 out of 10, mainly due to the significant content of Myristyl Myristate (est. ≈6.0%) and Cetyl Ricinoleate (est. ≈3.0%).

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

Anti-wrinkle efficacy

According to CreamScan analysis, Eve Lom Radiance Antioxidant Eye Cream 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, Eve Lom Radiance Antioxidant Eye Cream also contains some ingredients marketed as effective in reducing wrinkles, specifically Palmitoyl Tripeptide-5, Palmitoyl Tripeptide-1, and Palmitoyl Tetrapeptide-7. 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.
 
Moisturizers, when used regularly, are proven to prevent wrinkle formation and even reduce existing wrinkles. Therefore, this product, like any other moisturizer, could deliver additional anti-wrinkle efficacy through its moisturizing action.

Propanediol
Est. %4
Function
Origin
An excellent solvent capable of mixing water with normally water-insoluble ingredients. It also functions as a humectant due to its water-loving alcohol groups. Propanediol can control the viscosity of a product by reducing its thickness.
