Key Benefits of NUDESTIX Hydra-Peptide Lip Butter

 
These are the key benefits you can expect from using NUDESTIX Hydra-Peptide Lip Butter:
 

Moisturizer with the Right Occlusivity for Normal to Dry Skin

According to CreamScan analysis, NUDESTIX Hydra-Peptide Lip Butter is lightly moisturizing, with a moisturizing rating of 3.8 out of 10.

Is it more humectant or occlusive? Purely occlusive. It has zero Humectancy (we didn't find any humectant ingredients on the ingredient list) and a high Occlusivity of 7.6 out of 10, primarily due to the high content of Butyrospermum Parkii (Shea) Butter (est. ≈11.0%) and Persea Gratissima (Avocado) Butter (est. ≈4.0%).

This type of product, when used as a standalone moisturizer, may provide a significant level of occlusive hydration that is adequate for normal skin.

The occlusive profile of NUDESTIX Hydra-Peptide Lip Butter 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.

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

Things to Be Aware Of: NUDESTIX Hydra-Peptide Lip Butter

 
CreamScan AI identified a few things to consider before adding NUDESTIX Hydra-Peptide Lip Butter to your skincare routine:
 

If It’s Your Only Moisturizer, It’s Better When Paired with Some Humectants

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 NUDESTIX Hydra-Peptide Lip Butter contains no humectants at all.

People with normal 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.

Questionable anti-wrinkle efficacy

If one of your main reasons for choosing NUDESTIX Hydra-Peptide Lip Butter is its potential anti-aging effects, please note that, according to CreamScan analysis, it currently has a zero anti-wrinkle rating.

It contains Palmitoyl Tripeptide-1 and Palmitoyl Tripeptide-38, two ingredients often marketed as effective in reducing wrinkles. 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 exclude 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 accessible 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.
