How moisturizing is it?

Maximum hydration: Little Dream Garden Body Lotion has the highest possible moisturizing rating of 10.0 out of 10.

Is it more humectant or occlusive? This is one of the most moisturizing products on the market, with a maximum humectancy of 10 out of 10, primarily due to the substantial concentration of Niacinamide (est. ≈5.0%) and Glycerin (est. ≈5.0%), and a maximum occlusivity of 10 out of 10, mainly due to the significant content of Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride (est. ≈5.0%) and Butyrospermum Parkii (Shea) Butter (est. ≈5.0%).

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

Anti-wrinkle efficacy

According to CreamScan analysis, Little Dream Garden Body Lotion has a high anti-wrinkle rating of 6.0 out of 10. It contains one ingredient with proven anti-wrinkle efficacy: Niacinamide (est. ≈5.0%),
 one of the most effective and well-researched anti-wrinkle ingredients.
 
Among others, Little Dream Garden Body Lotion also contains 3-O-Ethyl Ascorbic Acid, an ingredient marketed as effective in reducing wrinkles. However, the studies supporting the anti-wrinkle claims of 3-O-Ethyl Ascorbic Acid provide insufficient evidence of its efficacy according to CreamScan Research Evaluation Standards. Therefore, this ingredient does not contribute to the anti-wrinkle rating.
 

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

Antioxidant benefits

We estimate that Little Dream Garden Body Lotion is rich (> 3%) in antioxidants, specifically Niacinamide (est. ≈5.0%), Oryza Sativa (Rice) Bran Oil (est. ≈5.0%), Avena Sativa (Oat) Kernel Oil (est. ≈5.0%), 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, Little Dream Garden Body Lotion is rich (> 5%) in soothing ingredients, particularly Niacinamide (est. ≈5.0%) and Sucrose (est. ≈5.0%).

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.
