If this is the only moisturizer that you apply at a time, check out our suggestions for different skin types:
Oily and combination skin: Moisturizing rating of 2 - 6 with high Humectancy and low Occlusivity
Normal skin: Moisturizing rating of 4 - 7 with high Humectancy and moderate Occlusivity
Dry skin: Moisturizing rating of 7 - 10 with high Humectancy and high Occlusivity

Based on the ingredient analysis by CreamScan, these are the key benefits you can expect from using ma:nyo Bifida Complex Ampoule Gel Cleanser:
Quite moisturizing: ma:nyo Bifida Complex Ampoule Gel Cleanser has a moisturizing rating of 5.2 out of 10.
Is it more humectant or occlusive? Significantly more humectant. It has a low occlusivity of 0.3 out of 10 and a maximum humectancy of 10 out of 10, primarily due to the high content of Glycerin (est. ≈3.0%).
Please refer to the Ratings section below for details of the moisturizing rating calculation.
According to CreamScan analysis, ma:nyo Bifida Complex Ampoule Gel Cleanser has a zero anti-wrinkle rating.
It contains some ingredients marketed as effective in reducing wrinkles, specifically Centella Asiatica Extract, Camellia Sinensis Leaf Extract, and Gluconolactone. 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.
We estimate that ma:nyo Bifida Complex Ampoule Gel Cleanser is rich (> 3%) in antioxidants, specifically Lactobacillus (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.

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.

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).
