Results you may expect from using Omorovicza Miracle Facial Oil:

Based on the ingredient analysis by CreamScan, these are the key benefits you can expect from using Omorovicza Miracle Facial Oil:

  • Moderate moisturizing. It has a moisturizing rating of 5.0 out of 10.
  • Soothing: Omorovicza Miracle Facial Oil contains a high concentration of soothing ingredients, which may help to reduce irritation and calm the skin.
  • Antioxidant protection.

How moisturizing is it?

Quite moisturizing: Omorovicza Miracle Facial Oil has a moisturizing rating of 5.0 out of 10.

Is it more humectant or occlusive? It is purely occlusive. It has zero Humectancy (we didn't find any humectant ingredients on the ingredient list) and a maximum Occlusivity of 10 out of 10, primarily due to the high content of Prunus Amygdalus Dulcis (Sweet Almond) Oil (est. ≈45.0%), Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride (est. ≈22.0%) and Prunus Armeniaca (Apricot) Kernel Oil (est. ≈11.0%).

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

Anti-wrinkle efficacy

According to CreamScan analysis, Omorovicza Miracle Facial Oil has a zero anti-wrinkle rating.

It contains Bakuchiol, an ingredient marketed as effective in reducing wrinkles. However, the studies supporting the anti-wrinkle claims of Bakuchiol provide insufficient evidence of its efficacy according to CreamScan Research Evaluation Standards. Therefore, this ingredient does 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 Omorovicza Miracle Facial Oil is rich (> 3%) in antioxidants, specifically Bakuchiol (est. ≈6.0%) and Borago Officinalis Seed Oil (est. ≈4.0%).

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, Omorovicza Miracle Facial Oil is rich (> 5%) in soothing ingredients, particularly Borago Officinalis Seed Oil (est. ≈4.0%) and Oenothera Biennis (Evening Primrose) Oil (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.
