Does Haus Labs By Lady Gaga PhD Hybrid Lip Oil Primary Sheer Berry work?

Based on the ingredient list analysis by CreamScan AI, these are the key benefits you can expect from using Haus Labs By Lady Gaga PhD Hybrid Lip Oil Primary Sheer Berry:

  • Moderate moisturizing. It has a moisturizing rating of 4.1 out of 10.

Moisturizer with the right occlusivity for normal skin, ideally to be used with extra humectants

According to CreamScan analysis, Haus Labs By Lady Gaga PhD Hybrid Lip Oil Primary Sheer Berry is quite moisturizing, with a moisturizing rating of 4.1 out of 10.

Is it more humectant or occlusive? This product has relatively comparable levels of humectancy and occlusivity: a moderate humectancy of 3.0 out of 10, solely because of the high content of sr-Hydrozoan Polypeptide-1 (est. ≈3.0%), and a moderate occlusivity of 5.2 out of 10, primarily due to the substantial concentration of Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride (est. ≈6.0%) and Opuntia Ficus-Indica Seed Oil (est. ≈4.0%).

This type of product, when used as a standalone moisturizer, may provide some occlusive moisturizing that is adequate for normal skin.

However, it contains a relatively low level of humectants, and people with normal skin would definitely benefit from adding more humectants to their moisturizing routine beyond what this product offers. If this is your only moisturizer, it may be worth including a humectant-rich product, such as a serum, in your skincare routine.

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

Questionable anti-wrinkle efficacy

According to CreamScan analysis, Haus Labs By Lady Gaga PhD Hybrid Lip Oil Primary Sheer Berry has a zero anti-wrinkle rating.

It contains Palmitoyl Tripeptide-38, an ingredient often marketed as effective in reducing wrinkles. However, the studies supporting the anti-wrinkle claims of Palmitoyl Tripeptide-38 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, can deliver some anti-wrinkle effects through its moisturizing action.

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