Does Peach & Lily Retinal For All Renewing Serum work?

Based on the ingredient list analysis by CreamScan AI, these are the key benefits you can expect from using Peach & Lily Retinal For All Renewing Serum:

  • Moderate moisturizing. It has a moisturizing rating of 5.0 out of 10.
  • Considerable anti-wrinkle efficacy: Peach & Lily Retinal For All Renewing Serum has an anti-wrinkle rating of 5.4 out of 10, indicating a moderate ability to reduce wrinkles.
  • Antioxidant protection.

Lightweight moisturizer well-suited for oily to normal skin

According to CreamScan analysis, Peach & Lily Retinal For All Renewing Serum is quite moisturizing, with a moisturizing rating of 5.0 out of 10.

Is it more humectant or occlusive? Rather humectant. It has a high humectancy of 6.5 out of 10, primarily due to the substantial concentration of Butylene Glycol (est. ≈3.0%) and Glycerin (est. ≈2.0%), and a moderate occlusivity of 3.6 out of 10, mainly due to the significant content of Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride (est. ≈6.0%).

This type of moisturizer is well-suited for people with oily skin who want significant hydration in a relatively lightweight, non-greasy formula. It combines a substantial amount of humectants with a limited amount of occlusive to enhance moisturizing efficacy without feeling too heavy.

This product may also be an option for people with normal skin who prefer fast-absorbing textures, as it balances moderate moisturizing potential with a relatively lightweight texture.

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

Considerable anti-wrinkle efficacy

According to CreamScan analysis, Peach & Lily Retinal For All Renewing Serum has a moderate anti-wrinkle rating of 5.4 out of 10.

It contains 2 active ingredients with proven anti-wrinkle efficacy:

  • Retinal (est. ≈0.05%),
     also known as retinaldehyde, is a potent retinoid with anti-wrinkle efficacy confirmed by a single clinical study involving 125 participants (Creidi et al.). This study demonstrated that a cream containing 0.05% retinal reduced the average wrinkle depth by 8% after 18 weeks of use, compared to a vehicle (the same formulation without retinal).
  • Ectoin (est. ≈0.3%),
     an amino acid-derived ingredient with moderate but proven anti-wrinkle efficacy.  A single clinical study involving 104 participants (Heinrich et al.) confirmed that a cream containing 2% ectoin reduced the average wrinkle width by 7% after 4 weeks of use, compared to the same formulation without ectoin (vehicle).
Among others, Peach & Lily Retinal For All Renewing Serum also contains Melia Azadirachta Leaf Extract, an ingredient often marketed as effective in reducing wrinkles. However, the studies supporting the anti-wrinkle claims of Melia Azadirachta Leaf Extract provide insufficient evidence of its efficacy according to CreamScan Research Evaluation Standards. Therefore, this ingredient does not contribute to 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.

Rich in skin-protecting antioxidants

We estimate that Peach & Lily Retinal For All Renewing Serum is rich (> 3%) in antioxidants, specifically Daucus Carota Sativa (Carrot) Root Water (est. ≈0.3%), Camellia Japonica Flower Extract (est. ≈0.3%), Sodium Hyaluronate (est. ≈0.3%), and others.

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.
