Key Benefits of MAKE Beauty Hibernation Capsule Overnight Recovery Balm

 
These are the key benefits you can expect from using MAKE Beauty Hibernation Capsule Overnight Recovery Balm:
 

🔵🔵 Perfect Moisturizer for Normal to Dry Skin

According to CreamScan analysis, MAKE Beauty Hibernation Capsule Overnight Recovery Balm is intensely moisturizing, with a moisturizing rating of 8.2 out of 10.

Is it more humectant or occlusive? Rather humectant. It has a maximum humectancy of 10 out of 10, primarily due to the substantial concentration of Propanediol (est. ≈6.0%) and Glycerin (est. ≈2.5%), and a high occlusivity of 6.5 out of 10, entirely due to the significant content of Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride (est. ≈9.0%) and Caprylic/Capric/Myristic/Stearic Triglyceride (est. ≈4.0%).

This type of moisturizer is ideal for people with normal skin who want intense hydration in a rich yet not overly thick formula. It combines a high concentration of humectants with a significant amount of occlusive ingredients to provide effective dual-action moisturizing.

The product’s occlusive profile suggests a texture that is rich and creamy but not overly thick, offering the potential to absorb into the skin without leaving a greasy afterfeel in most cases.

This product may also be a good choice for people with dry (but not very dry) skin for daily hydration, as it strikes a balance between significant moisturizing potential and a texture that is not too thick.

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

📌 Please note that this is not a complete list of benefits. We are in the process of enhancing our model to incorporate anti-pigmentation, exfoliation and anti-acne ratings.

Things to Be Aware Of: MAKE Beauty Hibernation Capsule Overnight Recovery Balm

 
CreamScan identified a few things to consider before adding MAKE Beauty Hibernation Capsule Overnight Recovery Balm to your skincare routine:
 

⚠️ Questionable anti-wrinkle efficacy

If one of your main reasons for choosing MAKE Beauty Hibernation Capsule Overnight Recovery Balm is its potential anti-aging effects, please note that, according to CreamScan analysis, it currently has a zero anti-wrinkle rating.

It contains some ingredients often marketed as effective in reducing wrinkles, specifically Pseudoalteromonas Ferment Extract, Melia Azadirachta Leaf Extract, and Sodium Salicylate. However, the studies supporting the anti-wrinkle claims of these ingredients provide insufficient evidence of efficacy according to CreamScan Research Evaluation Standards. 

While this does not categorically rule out the possibility that these ingredients may reduce wrinkles, their efficacy is not supported by convincing, vehicle-controlled, double-blind clinical studies - at least none that were available to the CreamScan team at the time of publication.

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, can deliver some anti-wrinkle effects through its moisturizing action.

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