Review

Results you may expect from using Tom Ford Skin Revitalizing Concentrate:

Based on the ingredient analysis by CreamScan, these are the key benefits you can expect from using Tom Ford Skin Revitalizing Concentrate:

  • Significant moisturizing. It has a moisturizing rating of 6.5 out of 10.
  • Antioxidant protection.

How moisturizing is it?

Highly moisturizing: Tom Ford Skin Revitalizing Concentrate has a moisturizing rating of 6.5 out of 10.

Is it more humectant or occlusive? Significantly more occlusive. It has a moderate humectancy of 3.0 out of 10 and a maximum occlusivity of 10 out of 10, primarily due to the high content of Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride (est. ≈40.0%) and Simmondsia Chinensis (Jojoba) Seed Oil (est. ≈11.0%).

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

Anti-wrinkle efficacy

According to CreamScan analysis, Tom Ford Skin Revitalizing Concentrate has a zero anti-wrinkle rating.

It contains Coffea Arabica (Coffee) Seed Extract and Caffeine, two ingredients marketed as effective in reducing wrinkles. 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.

Antioxidant benefits

We estimate that Tom Ford Skin Revitalizing Concentrate is rich (> 3%) in antioxidants, specifically Coffea Arabica (Coffee) Seed Extract (est. ≈1.0%), Polygonum Cuspidatum Root Extract (est. ≈0.3%), Morinda Citrifolia Fruit 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.
