How moisturizing is it?

Highly moisturizing: Hey Honey Stand Firm Argireline and Nemeko Mushroom Ageless Revitalizing Firming Cream has a moisturizing rating of 7.5 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. ≈7.5%) and Glycerin (est. ≈5.0%), and a moderate occlusivity of 5.0 out of 10, mainly due to the high content of Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride (est. ≈3.0%) and Cannabis Sativa Seed Oil (est. ≈2.5%).

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

Anti-wrinkle efficacy

According to CreamScan analysis, Hey Honey Stand Firm Argireline and Nemeko Mushroom Ageless Revitalizing Firming Cream has a zero anti-wrinkle rating.

It contains Acetyl Hexapeptide-8, an ingredient marketed as effective in reducing wrinkles. However, the studies supporting the anti-wrinkle claims of Acetyl Hexapeptide-8 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.

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