Does Troiareuke AGT Hydro Essence work?

Based on the ingredient list analysis by CreamScan AI, these are the key benefits you can expect from using Troiareuke AGT Hydro Essence:

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

How moisturizing is it?

Quite moisturizing: Troiareuke AGT Hydro Essence has a moisturizing rating of 5.0 out of 10.

Is it more humectant or occlusive? It is purely humectant. It has zero occlusivity (we didn't find any occlusive ingredients on the ingredient list) and a maximum humectancy of 10 out of 10, primarily due to the high content of Glycerin (est. ≈6.0%), Betaine (est. ≈3.0%) and Butylene Glycol (est. ≈2.0%).

Tip: Studies suggest that humectants alone do not moisturize the skin. We recommend applying a product with some occlusive ingredients after the use of this one.

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

Antioxidant benefits

We estimate that Troiareuke AGT Hydro Essence is rich (> 3%) in antioxidants, specifically Lonicera Japonica (Honeysuckle) Flower Extract (est. ≈1.5%), Pinus Densiflora 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.
