/ 10 Based on the ingredient analysis by CreamScan, these are the key benefits you can expect from using Le Labo After Shave Balm:
Intensely moisturizing: Le Labo After Shave Balm has a moisturizing rating of 8.1 out of 10.
Is it more humectant or occlusive? Rather humectant. It has a very high humectancy of 9.8 out of 10, primarily due to the substantial concentration of Propanediol (est. ≈4.0%) and Glycerin (est. ≈3.0%), and a high occlusivity of 6.4 out of 10, mainly due to the significant content of Dimethicone (est. ≈9.0%).
Please refer to the Ratings section below for details of the moisturizing rating calculation.
Please refer to the Ratings section below for details of the anti-wrinkle rating calculation.
We estimate that Le Labo After Shave Balm is rich (> 3%) in antioxidants, specifically Persea Gratissima (Avocado) Oil (est. ≈1.5%), Rosmarinus Officinalis (Rosemary) Leaf Extract (est. ≈0.3%), Caffeine (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.

According to various studies, a formula made up of 10% humectants will significantly increase skin hydration. Some studies also suggest that any further icrease in the consentration of humectants does not translate inty any more hydration and may even be dehydrating.
To achieve maximum Humectancy, the product should have humectants with a total score of 10 and more.

The most occlusive product possible is 100% petrolatum (hello Vaseline Jelly). According to studies, however, even 10% petrolatum can achieve almost the same mosturizing effect.
The occlusive properties of petrolatum are at least twice as superior as other occlusive ingredients. This is why, in order to match the moisturizing efficacy of 10% petrolatum, a product needs to contain at least 20% of other occlusives.
Our benchmark for maximum Occlusivity is 20 (and the petrolatum score is always doubled).
