Review

Results you may expect from using Sensai Total Lip Treatment:

Based on the ingredient analysis by CreamScan, these are the key benefits you can expect from using Sensai Total Lip Treatment:

  • Significant moisturizing. It has a moisturizing rating of 7.0 out of 10.
  • Little anti-wrinkle effect: Sensai Total Lip Treatment has an anti-wrinkle rating of 0.4 out of 10, so you may expect a positive, although insignificant, effect on wrinkles.

How moisturizing is it?

Highly moisturizing: Sensai Total Lip Treatment has a moisturizing rating of 7.0 out of 10.

Is it more humectant or occlusive? Significantly more humectant. It has a maximum humectancy of 10 out of 10, primarily due to the substantial concentration of Glycerin (est. ≈6.0%) and Maltitol (est. ≈4.0%), and a moderate occlusivity of 4.1 out of 10, mainly due to the high content of Triethylhexanoin (est. ≈2.5%) and Beeswax (est. ≈2.0%).

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

Anti-wrinkle efficacy

According to CreamScan analysis, Sensai Total Lip Treatment has a minimal anti-wrinkle rating of 0.4 out of 10. It contains one ingredient with proven anti-wrinkle efficacy: Niacinamide (est. ≈0.3%),
 one of the most effective and well-researched anti-wrinkle ingredients.
 
Among others, Sensai Total Lip Treatment also contains contains Acetyl Glucosamine and Alpinia Speciosa Leaf Extract, two ingredients 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. Therefore, these ingredients do 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, could deliver additional anti-wrinkle efficacy through its moisturizing action.
