Review

Results you may expect from using Rooted Beauty Purifying Overnight Recovery Cream:

Based on the ingredient analysis by CreamScan, these are the key benefits you can expect from using Rooted Beauty Purifying Overnight Recovery Cream:

  • Moderate moisturizing. It has a moisturizing rating of 5.0 out of 10.
  • Antioxidant protection.

How moisturizing is it?

Quite moisturizing: Rooted Beauty Purifying Overnight Recovery Cream has a moisturizing rating of 5.0 out of 10.

Is it more humectant or occlusive? Significantly more humectant. It has a low occlusivity of 2.8 out of 10 and a high humectancy of 7.2 out of 10, primarily due to the high content of Glycerin (est. ≈6.0%).

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

Anti-wrinkle efficacy

According to CreamScan analysis, Rooted Beauty Purifying Overnight Recovery Cream has a zero anti-wrinkle rating.

It contains Camellia Sinensis Leaf Extract, an ingredient marketed as effective in reducing wrinkles. However, the studies supporting the anti-wrinkle claims of Camellia Sinensis Leaf Extract 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 Rooted Beauty Purifying Overnight Recovery Cream is rich (> 3%) in antioxidants, specifically Persea Gratissima (Avocado) Oil (est. ≈0.3%), Citrus Limon (Lemon) Peel Extract (est. ≈0.3%), Lavandula Angustifolia (Lavender) Flower/Leaf/Stem Extract (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.
