Results you may expect from using Truly Hemp Oil Facial Serum:

Based on the ingredient analysis by CreamScan, these are the key benefits you can expect from using Truly Hemp Oil Facial Serum:

  • Intense moisturizing. It has a moisturizing rating of 8.2 out of 10.
  • Antioxidant protection.

How moisturizing is it?

Intensely moisturizing: Truly Hemp Oil Facial Serum has a moisturizing rating of 8.2 out of 10.

Is it more humectant or occlusive? Rather occlusive. It has a high humectancy of 6.3 out of 10, primarily due to the substantial concentration of Glycerin (est. ≈4.0%) and Camellia Sinensis Leaf Extract (est. ≈2.0%), and a maximum occlusivity of 10 out of 10, mainly due to the significant content of Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride (est. ≈45.0%) and Simmondsia Chinensis (Jojoba) Seed Oil (est. ≈22.0%).

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

Anti-wrinkle efficacy

According to CreamScan analysis, Truly Hemp Oil Facial Serum has a zero anti-wrinkle rating.

It contains some ingredients marketed as effective in reducing wrinkles, specifically Camellia Sinensis Leaf Extract, Retinyl Palmitate, and Melia Azadirachta Leaf Extract. 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.

 
Please refer to the Ratings section below for details of the anti-wrinkle rating calculation.
 

Antioxidant benefits

We estimate that Truly Hemp Oil Facial Serum is rich (> 3%) in antioxidants, specifically Spirulina Platensis Extract (est. ≈6.0%) and Camellia Sinensis Leaf 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.

Ingredients explained

Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride
Est. %45
Function
Origin
A natural occlusive moisturizing and emollient ingredient, it is a blend of glycerin and two fatty acids, caprylic and capric acid. It creates an oil-based protective layer on the skin, thereby preventing water loss.
Simmondsia Chinensis (Jojoba) Seed Oil
Est. %22
Function
Origin
A liquid plant wax, also known as Jojoba oil, pressed from the seeds of Simmondsia chinensis. These seeds can contain up to 50% of liquid wax. It is used as an occlusive moisturizer, emollient, and emulsifier.
Cannabis Sativa Seed Oil
Est. %11
Function
Origin
Also known as hemp seed oil, an occlusive moisturizing and emollient oil derived from the seeds of industrial hemp. It has nothing to do with full-spectrum CBD or THC. It contains unsaturated fatty acids, antioxidant phytosterols, phytol, and vitamin E.
Spirulina Platensis Extract
Est. %6
Function
Origin
A dark green emollient and antioxidant extract derived from spirulina - a dried mass of tiny blue-green algae. It is rich in proteins, amino acids, minerals, and vitamins (namely B1 and B2).
Glycerin
Est. %4
Function
Origin

The most popular moisturizing ingredient in the world. It is a powerful humectant – cheap yet very effective.

Water
Est. %3
Function
Origin
The most used ingredient in skincare. Its concentration defines the product texture: rich creams may have about 50% of water while a light jelly about 90%. Water doesn’t moisturize the skin by itself and is used in skincare as a solvent for other ingredients.
Camellia Sinensis Leaf Extract
Est. %2
Function
Origin
An antioxidant green tea extract. In the deeper layers, it slows down the destruction of collagen, elastin, and hyaluronic acid – thus delaying the signs of aging. It also acts as an anti-acne, soothing, moisturizing, and emollient ingredient.
Retinyl Palmitate
Est. %1.5
Function
Origin
An esterified form of retinol – it combines retinol and palmitic acid into one molecule. Retinyl palmitate is less irritating than retinol but also much less effective in its anti-aging and acne-reducing effects.
Sclerocarya Birrea Seed Oil
Est. %1
Function
Origin
A famous but not well enough researched emollient fatty oil from the seeds of Marula fruits. It contains fatty acids and a lot of antioxidant and emollient phytosterols.
