Review

Results you may expect from using Knours. Be Kind Double Duty Mist:

Based on the ingredient analysis by CreamScan, these are the key benefits you can expect from using Knours. Be Kind Double Duty Mist:

  • Significant moisturizing. It has a moisturizing rating of 6.7 out of 10.
  • Soothing: Knours. Be Kind Double Duty Mist contains a high concentration of soothing ingredients, which may help to reduce irritation and calm the skin.
  • Antioxidant protection.

How moisturizing is it?

Highly moisturizing: Knours. Be Kind Double Duty Mist has a moisturizing rating of 6.7 out of 10.

Is it more humectant or occlusive? Significantly more humectant. It has a very high humectancy of 8.8 out of 10, primarily due to the substantial concentration of Butylene Glycol (est. ≈4.0%), and a moderate occlusivity of 4.6 out of 10, mainly due to the significant content of Squalane (est. ≈6.0%) and Simmondsia Chinensis (Jojoba) Seed Oil (est. ≈3.0%).

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

Anti-wrinkle efficacy

According to CreamScan analysis, Knours. Be Kind Double Duty Mist has a zero anti-wrinkle rating.

It contains Centella Asiatica Extract and Camellia Sinensis Leaf Extract, two ingredients marketed as effective in reducing wrinkles. However, the studies supporting the anti-wrinkle claims of these ingredients provide insufficient evidence of efficacy according to CreamScan Research Evaluation Standards. Therefore, these ingredients do 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.

Antioxidant benefits

We estimate that Knours. Be Kind Double Duty Mist is rich (> 3%) in antioxidants, specifically Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Juice (est. ≈1.5%), Passiflora Incarnata Flower Extract (est. ≈0.3%), Zanthoxylum Piperitum Fruit Extract (est. ≈0.3%), and others.

A key benefit of antioxidants is their ability to reduce oxidative stress caused by free radicals and therefore prevent accelerated skin aging. Studies also show that antioxidants can protect against environmental damage such as UV radiation and pollution, and help reduce inflammation and skin redness.

Skin soothing

Based on the ingredient list analysis, Knours. Be Kind Double Duty Mist is rich (> 5%) in soothing ingredients, particularly Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Juice (est. ≈1.5%), Paeonia Suffruticosa Root Extract (est. ≈1.3%), Passiflora Incarnata Flower Extract (est. ≈0.3%), and others.

When applied to the skin, compounds of soothing ingredients, such as triglycerides, phospholipids, fatty acids, phenolic compounds, and antioxidants, work together to soothe the skin through various mechanisms: reducing inflammation, promoting wound healing, repairing the skin barrier, and providing antimicrobial and antioxidant activities.
