Based on the ingredient analysis by CreamScan, these are the key benefits you can expect from using SKIN&CO Truffle Therapy Face Toner:

  • A bit of moisturizing. It has a moisturizing rating of 1.8 out of 10.
  • Little anti-wrinkle effect: SKIN&CO Truffle Therapy Face Toner has an anti-wrinkle rating of 0.4 out of 10, so you may expect a positive, although insignificant, effect on wrinkles.

  • Antioxidant protection.

How moisturizing is it?

Slightly moisturizing: SKIN&CO Truffle Therapy Face Toner has a moisturizing rating of 1.8 out of 10.

Is it more humectant or occlusive? Purely humectant. It has zero occlusivity (we didn't find any occlusive ingredients on the ingredient list) and a moderate humectancy of 3.7 out of 10, primarily due to Tuber Melanosporum Extract (est. ≈1.3%), Glycerin (est. ≈0.3%) and Sodium Lactate (est. ≈0.3%).

Tip: Studies suggest that humectants alone do not moisturize the skin. We recommend applying a product with some occlusive ingredients after the use of this one.

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

Anti-wrinkle efficacy

According to CreamScan analysis, SKIN&CO Truffle Therapy Face Toner 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.
 
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.
 

Please refer to the Ratings section below for details of the anti-wrinkle rating calculation.

Antioxidant benefits

We estimate that SKIN&CO Truffle Therapy Face Toner is rich (> 3%) in antioxidants, specifically Salvia Officinalis (Sage) Extract (est. ≈4.0%), Citrus Limon (Lemon) Peel Extract (est. ≈3.0%) and Rosa Canina Fruit Extract (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, SKIN&CO Truffle Therapy Face Toner is rich (> 5%) in soothing ingredients, particularly Hamamelis Virginiana (Witch Hazel) Leaf Water (est. ≈6.0%) and Salvia Officinalis (Sage) Extract (est. ≈4.0%).

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.
