Results you may expect from using SIRCUIT SKIN I Cee U:

Based on the ingredient analysis by CreamScan, these are the key benefits you can expect from using SIRCUIT SKIN I Cee U:

  • Significant moisturizing. It has a moisturizing rating of 6.3 out of 10.
  • Soothing: SIRCUIT SKIN I Cee U contains a high concentration of soothing ingredients, which may help to reduce irritation and calm the skin.
  • Antioxidant protection.

How moisturizing is it?

Highly moisturizing: SIRCUIT SKIN I Cee U has a moisturizing rating of 6.3 out of 10.

Is it more humectant or occlusive? Significantly more humectant. It has a low occlusivity of 2.6 out of 10 and a maximum humectancy of 10 out of 10, primarily due to the high content of Glycerin (est. ≈7.5%) and Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Juice Powder (est. ≈3.0%).

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

Anti-wrinkle efficacy

According to CreamScan analysis, SIRCUIT SKIN I Cee U has a zero anti-wrinkle rating.

It contains Centella Asiatica Leaf Extract, an ingredient marketed as effective in reducing wrinkles. However, the studies supporting the anti-wrinkle claims of Centella Asiatica 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 SIRCUIT SKIN I Cee U is rich (> 3%) in antioxidants, specifically Camellia Oleifera Leaf Extract (est. ≈2.5%) and Saccharomyces/Xylinum/Black Tea Ferment (est. ≈2.0%).

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, SIRCUIT SKIN I Cee U is rich (> 5%) in soothing ingredients, particularly Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Juice Powder (est. ≈3.0%), Camellia Oleifera Leaf Extract (est. ≈2.5%) and Saccharomyces/Xylinum/Black Tea Ferment (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.
