Is it more humectant or occlusive? Rather humectant. It has a high humectancy of 6.5 out of 10, primarily due to the substantial concentration of Pentylene Glycol (est. ≈5.0%), and a moderate occlusivity of 5.2 out of 10, mainly due to the significant content of Myristyl Myristate (est. ≈4.9%) and Rosa Canina Fruit Oil (est. ≈4.0%).

Antioxidant benefits

We estimate that Susanne Kaufmann Day Cream Line T is rich (> 3%) in antioxidants, specifically Althaea Officinalis Root Extract (est. ≈2.5%) and Chamomilla Recutita (Matricaria) Flower 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, Susanne Kaufmann Day Cream Line T is rich (> 5%) in soothing ingredients, particularly Achillea Millefolium Extract (est. ≈3.0%), Althaea Officinalis Root Extract (est. ≈2.5%) and Chamomilla Recutita (Matricaria) Flower Extract (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.
