Results you may expect from using W3ll People Bio Tint Multi-Action Moisturizer with SPF 30:

Based on the ingredient analysis by CreamScan, these are the key benefits you can expect from using W3ll People Bio Tint Multi-Action Moisturizer with SPF 30:

  • Significant moisturizing. It has a moisturizing rating of 7.0 out of 10.
  • Antioxidant protection.
  • High sun protection for extended outdoor activities and exposure.

How moisturizing is it?

Highly moisturizing: W3ll People Bio Tint Multi-Action Moisturizer with SPF 30 has a moisturizing rating of 7.0 out of 10.

Is it more humectant or occlusive? Significantly more occlusive. It has a moderate humectancy of 5.2 out of 10, primarily due to the substantial concentration of Glycerin (est. ≈2.0%), and a very high occlusivity of 8.8 out of 10, mainly due to the significant content of Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride (est. ≈11.0%) and Ricinus Communis (Castor) Seed Oil (est. ≈3.0%).

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

Anti-wrinkle efficacy

According to CreamScan analysis, W3ll People Bio Tint Multi-Action Moisturizer with SPF 30 has a zero anti-wrinkle rating.

It contains some ingredients marketed as effective in reducing wrinkles, specifically Gluconolactone, Tetrahexyldecyl Ascorbate, Camellia Sinensis Leaf Extract, Palmitoyl Tripeptide-38, and Palmitoyl Hexapeptide-12. 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 W3ll People Bio Tint Multi-Action Moisturizer with SPF 30 is rich (> 3%) in antioxidants, specifically Argania Spinosa Kernel Oil (est. ≈1.0%), Tocopheryl Acetate (est. ≈0.3%), Tetrahexyldecyl Ascorbate (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.

Sun protection

W3ll People Bio Tint Multi-Action Moisturizer with SPF 30 has an SPF of 30 and provides high sun protection. This level of protection is ideal for activities such as spending time at the beach, outdoor sports, or other activities involving prolonged sun exposure. It's important to apply sunscreen generously and reapply every two hours or after swimming or sweating to maintain effectiveness.
