Does The Skinny Confidential Ice Queen Face Oil work?

Based on the ingredient list analysis by CreamScan AI, these are the key benefits you can expect from using The Skinny Confidential Ice Queen Face Oil:

  • Moderate moisturizing. It has a moisturizing rating of 5.0 out of 10.
  • Antioxidant protection.

How moisturizing is it?

Quite moisturizing: The Skinny Confidential Ice Queen Face Oil has a moisturizing rating of 5.0 out of 10.

Is it more humectant or occlusive? It is purely occlusive. It has zero Humectancy (we didn't find any humectant ingredients on the ingredient list) and a maximum Occlusivity of 10 out of 10, primarily due to the high content of Punica Granatum Seed Oil (est. ≈11.0%), Rubus Idaeus (Raspberry) Seed Oil (est. ≈6.0%) and Vaccinium Corymbosum (Blueberry) Seed Oil (est. ≈4.0%).

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

Anti-wrinkle efficacy

According to CreamScan analysis, The Skinny Confidential Ice Queen Face Oil has a zero anti-wrinkle rating.

It contains Melia Azadirachta Leaf Extract, an ingredient marketed as effective in reducing wrinkles. However, the studies supporting the anti-wrinkle claims of Melia Azadirachta 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 The Skinny Confidential Ice Queen Face Oil is rich (> 3%) in antioxidants, specifically Punica Granatum Seed Oil (est. ≈11.0%), Vaccinium Corymbosum (Blueberry) Seed Oil (est. ≈4.0%) and Passiflora Edulis Seed Oil (est. ≈3.0%).

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.
