According to CreamScan analysis, Living Libations Best Skin Ever - Seabuckthorn is quite moisturizing, with a moisturizing rating of 5.0 out of 10.
Is it more humectant or occlusive? It is purely occlusive. It has zero Humectancy (we didn't find any humectant ingredients on the ingredient list) and a maximum Occlusivity of 10 out of 10, due to the high content of Hippophae Rhamnoides Oil (est. ≈50.0%), Simmondsia Chinensis (Jojoba) Butter (est. ≈22.0%) and Cocos Nucifera (Coconut) Oil (est. ≈11.0%).
This type of product, when used as a standalone moisturizer, can deliver an exceptional level of occlusive hydration that is adequate for dry to very skin. The occlusive profile of Living Libations Best Skin Ever - Seabuckthorn suggests a rich, thick texture, making it perfectly suited for dry skin.
Please refer to the Ratings section below for details of the moisturizing rating calculation.
We estimate that Living Libations Best Skin Ever - Seabuckthorn is rich (> 3%) in antioxidants, specifically Hippophae Rhamnoides Oil (est. ≈50.0%), Calophyllum Inophyllum Seed Oil (est. ≈6.0%) and Lavandula Angustifolia (Lavender) Extract (est. ≈4.0%).
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.
Please note that this is not a complete list of benefits. We are in the process of enhancing our AI model to incorporate anti-pigmentation, exfoliation and anti-acne ratings.
With exceptional occlusivity, this product is optimal for moisturizing dry and very dry skin but may be too thick for other skin types, including normal, and especially combination and oily skin.
If you have oily, combination, or normal skin and are considering purchasing this product for the first time, it might be a good idea to try a sample before buying.
An ideal moisturizer for any skin type should balance the right level of occlusivity (depending on skin type) with a significant amount of humectants, while Living Libations Best Skin Ever - Seabuckthorn contains no humectants at all.
People with dry skin would definitely benefit from adding water-binding humectants to their moisturizing routine for effective dual-action moisturizing. If this is your only moisturizer, it may be worth including a humectant-rich product, such as a serum, in your skincare routine.
