Does Truth Treatments Omega 6 Healing Cream work?

Based on the ingredient list analysis by CreamScan AI, these are the key benefits you can expect from using Truth Treatments Omega 6 Healing Cream:

  • Moderate moisturizing. It has a moisturizing rating of 5.0 out of 10.
  • Soothing: Truth Treatments Omega 6 Healing Cream contains a high concentration of soothing ingredients, which may help to reduce irritation and calm the skin.

How moisturizing is it?

Quite moisturizing: Truth Treatments Omega 6 Healing Cream 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, due to the high content of Jojoba Esters (est. ≈55.0%), Octyldodecyl Oleate (est. ≈22.0%) and Argania Spinosa Kernel 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, Truth Treatments Omega 6 Healing Cream has a zero anti-wrinkle rating.

It contains Ascorbyl Palmitate, an ingredient marketed as effective in reducing wrinkles. However, the studies supporting the anti-wrinkle claims of Ascorbyl Palmitate 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 Truth Treatments Omega 6 Healing Cream is rich (> 3%) in antioxidants, specifically Argania Spinosa Kernel Oil (est. ≈11.0%) and Ascorbyl Palmitate (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, Truth Treatments Omega 6 Healing Cream is rich (> 5%) in soothing ingredients, particularly Jojoba Esters (est. ≈55.0%).

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.
