Review

Results you may expect from using Hempz Limited Edition Goji Orange Lemonade Herbal Body Moisturizer:

Based on the ingredient analysis by CreamScan, these are the key benefits you can expect from using Hempz Limited Edition Goji Orange Lemonade Herbal Body Moisturizer:

  • Significant moisturizing. It has a moisturizing rating of 7.4 out of 10.
  • Little anti-wrinkle effect: Hempz Limited Edition Goji Orange Lemonade Herbal Body Moisturizer has an anti-wrinkle rating of 0.1 out of 10, so you may expect a positive, although insignificant, effect on wrinkles.

How moisturizing is it?

Highly moisturizing: Hempz Limited Edition Goji Orange Lemonade Herbal Body Moisturizer has a moisturizing rating of 7.4 out of 10.

Is it more humectant or occlusive? Significantly more humectant. It has a maximum humectancy of 10 out of 10, primarily due to the substantial concentration of Propanediol (est. ≈6.0%) and Glycerin (est. ≈3.0%), and a moderate occlusivity of 4.7 out of 10, mainly due to the high content of Dimethicone (est. ≈4.0%) and Stearic Acid (est. ≈2.5%).

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

Anti-wrinkle efficacy

According to CreamScan analysis, Hempz Limited Edition Goji Orange Lemonade Herbal Body Moisturizer has a minimal anti-wrinkle rating of 0.1 out of 10. It contains one ingredient with proven anti-wrinkle efficacy: Ascorbic Acid (est. ≈0.3%),
 or Vitamin C, a popular anti-wrinkle ingredient, yet with average efficacy confirmed by only one study.
 
Among others, Hempz Limited Edition Goji Orange Lemonade Herbal Body Moisturizer also contains Retinyl Palmitate, an ingredient marketed as effective in reducing wrinkles. However, the studies supporting the anti-wrinkle claims of Retinyl Palmitate provide insufficient evidence of its efficacy according to CreamScan Research Evaluation Standards. Therefore, this ingredient does 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.
 

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