Review

Results you may expect from using Supergoop! 100% Mineral Bright-Eyed Eye Cream SPF 40:

Based on the ingredient analysis by CreamScan, these are the key benefits you can expect from using Supergoop! 100% Mineral Bright-Eyed Eye Cream SPF 40:

  • Moderate moisturizing. It has a moisturizing rating of 5.4 out of 10.
  • High sun protection for extended outdoor activities and exposure.

How moisturizing is it?

Quite moisturizing: Supergoop! 100% Mineral Bright-Eyed Eye Cream SPF 40 has a moisturizing rating of 5.4 out of 10.

Is it more humectant or occlusive? Rather humectant. It has a high humectancy of 7.9 out of 10, primarily due to the substantial concentration of Glycerin (est. ≈4.0%) and Propanediol (est. ≈3.0%), and a moderate occlusivity of 3.0 out of 10, solely because of the significant content of Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride (est. ≈6.0%).

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

Anti-wrinkle efficacy

According to CreamScan analysis, Supergoop! 100% Mineral Bright-Eyed Eye Cream SPF 40 has a zero anti-wrinkle rating.

It contains some ingredients marketed as effective in reducing wrinkles, specifically Camellia Sinensis Leaf Extract, Lactobacillus Ferment, and Caffeine. 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 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.

Sun protection

Supergoop! 100% Mineral Bright-Eyed Eye Cream SPF 40 has an SPF of 40 and provides high sun protection. This level of protection is ideal for activities such as spending time at the beach, outdoor sports, or other activities involving prolonged sun exposure. It's important to apply sunscreen generously and reapply every two hours or after swimming or sweating to maintain effectiveness.

Cetearyl Alcohol
Est. %0.3
Function
Origin
Cetearyl AlcoholA blend of cetyl alcohol and stearyl alcohol, the fatty alcohols that are derived from palm oil. It helps to create emulsions that give off a soft and silky emollient feel and also increase product thickness.
Potassium Cetyl Phosphate
