Anti-wrinkle efficacy

According to CreamScan analysis, Origins Make A Difference Plus+ Rejuvenating Treatment has a zero anti-wrinkle rating.

It contains some ingredients marketed as effective in reducing wrinkles, specifically Micrococcus Lysate, Acetyl Hexapeptide-8, and Caffeine. 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.
