Review

Results you may expect from using St. Tropez Tan Optimiser Body Moisturiser:

Based on the ingredient analysis by CreamScan, these are the key benefits you can expect from using St. Tropez Tan Optimiser Body Moisturiser:

  • Intense moisturizing. It has a moisturizing rating of 8.9 out of 10.
  • Little anti-wrinkle effect: St. Tropez Tan Optimiser Body Moisturiser has an anti-wrinkle rating of 0.1 out of 10, so you may expect a positive, although insignificant, effect on wrinkles.

  • Antioxidant protection.

How moisturizing is it?

Intensely moisturizing: St. Tropez Tan Optimiser Body Moisturiser has a moisturizing rating of 8.9 out of 10.

Is it more humectant or occlusive? Rather occlusive. It has a high humectancy of 7.8 out of 10, primarily due to the substantial concentration of Glycerin (est. ≈4.0%), and a maximum occlusivity of 10 out of 10, mainly due to the significant content of Prunus Armeniaca (Apricot) Kernel Oil (est. ≈9.0%) and Stearic Acid (est. ≈6.0%).

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

Anti-wrinkle efficacy

According to CreamScan analysis, St. Tropez Tan Optimiser Body Moisturiser has a minimal anti-wrinkle rating of 0.1 out of 10. It contains one ingredient with proven anti-wrinkle efficacy: Ascorbic Acid (est. ≈0.3%),
 or Vitamin C, a popular anti-wrinkle ingredient, yet with average efficacy confirmed by only one study.
 
Among others, St. Tropez Tan Optimiser Body Moisturiser also contains Retinyl Palmitate, an ingredient marketed as effective in reducing wrinkles. However, the studies supporting the anti-wrinkle claims of Retinyl Palmitate 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, 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 St. Tropez Tan Optimiser Body Moisturiser is rich (> 3%) in antioxidants, specifically Aloe Barbadensis Extract (est. ≈1.0%), Rosmarinus Officinalis (Rosemary) Leaf Extract (est. ≈0.3%), Chamomilla Recutita (Matricaria) Flower 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.

Skin soothing

Based on the ingredient list analysis, St. Tropez Tan Optimiser Body Moisturiser is rich (> 5%) in soothing ingredients, particularly Jojoba Esters (est. ≈2.5%).

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.
