Anti-wrinkle efficacy

According to CreamScan analysis, florence by mills Zero Chill Face Mist has a zero anti-wrinkle rating.

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