Review

Results you may expect from using Mad Hippie Hydrating Nutrient Mist:

Based on the ingredient analysis by CreamScan, these are the key benefits you can expect from using Mad Hippie Hydrating Nutrient Mist:

  • Moderate moisturizing. It has a moisturizing rating of 5.0 out of 10.
  • Antioxidant protection.

How moisturizing is it?

Quite moisturizing: Mad Hippie Hydrating Nutrient Mist has a moisturizing rating of 5.0 out of 10.

Is it more humectant or occlusive? It is purely humectant. It has zero occlusivity (we didn't find any occlusive ingredients on the ingredient list) and a maximum humectancy of 10 out of 10, primarily due to the high content of Glycerin (est. ≈4.0%) and Sodium PCA (est. ≈3.0%).

Tip: Studies suggest that humectants alone do not moisturize the skin. We recommend applying a product with some occlusive ingredients after the use of this one.

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

Anti-wrinkle efficacy

According to CreamScan analysis, Mad Hippie Hydrating Nutrient Mist has a zero anti-wrinkle rating.

It contains some ingredients marketed as effective in reducing wrinkles, specifically Sodium Ascorbyl Phosphate, Camellia Sinensis Leaf Extract, Beta-Glucan, and Acetyl Glucosamine. 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.

Antioxidant benefits

We estimate that Mad Hippie Hydrating Nutrient Mist is rich (> 3%) in antioxidants, specifically Sodium Ascorbyl Phosphate (est. ≈6.0%) and Camellia Sinensis Extract (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.
