Results you may expect from using La Prairie Skin Caviar Luxe Sleep Mask:

Based on the ingredient analysis by CreamScan, these are the key benefits you can expect from using La Prairie Skin Caviar Luxe Sleep Mask:

  • Intense moisturizing. It has a moisturizing rating of 8.8 out of 10.

How moisturizing is it?

Intensely moisturizing: La Prairie Skin Caviar Luxe Sleep Mask has a moisturizing rating of 8.8 out of 10.

Is it more humectant or occlusive? Rather humectant. It has a maximum humectancy of 10 out of 10, primarily due to the substantial concentration of Propanediol (est. ≈9.0%) and Glycerin (est. ≈2.5%), and a high occlusivity of 7.6 out of 10, mainly due to the significant content of Dimethicone (est. ≈6.0%) and Mangifera Indica (Mango) Seed Oil (est. ≈4.0%).

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

Anti-wrinkle efficacy

According to CreamScan analysis, La Prairie Skin Caviar Luxe Sleep Mask has a zero anti-wrinkle rating.

It contains some ingredients marketed as effective in reducing wrinkles, specifically Lactobacillus Ferment, Palmitoyl Tripeptide-1, and Palmitoyl Tetrapeptide-7. 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.

Est. %0.3
Function
Origin
Benzyl SalicylateA fragrance ingredient with a sweet, floral, and slightly balsamic scent. It is one of the twenty-six fragrances that are considered allergens according to the International Fragrance Association (IFRA), and so its use is restricted.
Citronellol
Est. %0.3
Function
Origin
