Review

Results you may expect from using Indeed Labs Hydraluron+ Volumising Lip Treatment:

Based on the ingredient analysis by CreamScan, these are the key benefits you can expect from using Indeed Labs Hydraluron+ Volumising Lip Treatment:

  • Significant moisturizing. It has a moisturizing rating of 6.6 out of 10.
  • Little anti-wrinkle effect: Indeed Labs Hydraluron+ Volumising Lip Treatment has an anti-wrinkle rating of 0.6 out of 10, so you may expect a positive, although insignificant, effect on wrinkles.

How moisturizing is it?

Highly moisturizing: Indeed Labs Hydraluron+ Volumising Lip Treatment has a moisturizing rating of 6.6 out of 10.

Is it more humectant or occlusive? Significantly more occlusive. It has a moderate humectancy of 3.2 out of 10, primarily due to the substantial concentration of Isosorbide Disunflowerseedate (est. ≈2.0%), and a maximum occlusivity of 10 out of 10, mainly due to the high content of Butyrospermum Parkii (Shea) Butter (est. ≈11.0%) and Punica Granatum Sterols (est. ≈6.0%).

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

Anti-wrinkle efficacy

According to CreamScan analysis, Indeed Labs Hydraluron+ Volumising Lip Treatment has a minimal anti-wrinkle rating of 0.6 out of 10. It contains one ingredient with proven anti-wrinkle efficacy: Ascorbyl Tetraisopalmitate (est. ≈0.3%),
 the only derivative of Ascorbic acid with confirmed anti-wrinkle efficacy. This ingredient has below-average efficacy, proven by one study.
 
Among others, Indeed Labs Hydraluron+ Volumising Lip Treatment also contains Palmitoyl Tripeptide-38, an ingredient 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 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.
