Review

Results you may expect from using ma:nyo Bifida Biome Aqua Barrier Cream:

Based on the ingredient analysis by CreamScan, these are the key benefits you can expect from using ma:nyo Bifida Biome Aqua Barrier Cream:

  • Moderate moisturizing. It has a moisturizing rating of 5.4 out of 10.
  • Significant anti-wrinkle efficacy. With an anti-wrinkle rating of 6.0 out of 10, ma:nyo Bifida Biome Aqua Barrier Cream is effective in minimizing wrinkles.

How moisturizing is it?

Quite moisturizing: ma:nyo Bifida Biome Aqua Barrier Cream has a moisturizing rating of 5.4 out of 10.

Is it more humectant or occlusive? Significantly more humectant. It has a low occlusivity of 0.9 out of 10 and a maximum humectancy of 10 out of 10, primarily due to the high content of Propanediol (est. ≈6.0%), Glycerin (est. ≈4.0%) and Butylene Glycol (est. ≈3.0%).

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

Anti-wrinkle efficacy

According to CreamScan analysis, ma:nyo Bifida Biome Aqua Barrier Cream has a high anti-wrinkle rating of 6.0 out of 10.

It contains 2 active ingredients with proven anti-wrinkle efficacy:

  • Niacinamide (est. ≈2.0%),
     one of the most effective and well-researched anti-wrinkle ingredients.
  • Asiaticoside (est. ≈0.3%),
     derived from the plant Centella asiatica, an ingredient with moderate anti-wrinkle efficacy confirmed by one study.
Among others, ma:nyo Bifida Biome Aqua Barrier Cream also contains some ingredients marketed as effective in reducing wrinkles, specifically Lactobacillus Ferment, Pueraria Lobata Root Extract, Asiatic Acid, Madecassic Acid, and Adenosine. 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 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 ma:nyo Bifida Biome Aqua Barrier Cream is rich (> 3%) in antioxidants, specifically Niacinamide (est. ≈2.0%).

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.

Skin soothing

Based on the ingredient list analysis, ma:nyo Bifida Biome Aqua Barrier Cream is rich (> 5%) in soothing ingredients, particularly Bifida Ferment Lysate (est. ≈30.0%) and Niacinamide (est. ≈2.0%).

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.
