Review

Results you may expect from using Whamisa Pear Blossom Single Eye Serum:

Based on the ingredient analysis by CreamScan, these are the key benefits you can expect from using Whamisa Pear Blossom Single Eye Serum:

  • Light moisturizing. It has a moisturizing rating of 2.6 out of 10.
  • Some anti-wrinkle efficacy: Whamisa Pear Blossom Single Eye Serum has an anti-wrinkle rating of 3.0 out of 10 so you may expect some, although limited, effect on wrinkles.

How moisturizing is it?

Lightly moisturizing: Whamisa Pear Blossom Single Eye Serum has a moisturizing rating of 2.6 out of 10.

Is it more humectant or occlusive? Rather humectant. It has a low occlusivity of 0.3 out of 10 and a moderate humectancy of 4.9 out of 10, primarily due to the high content of Sparassis Crispa Extract (est. ≈4.0%).

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

Anti-wrinkle efficacy

According to CreamScan analysis, Whamisa Pear Blossom Single Eye Serum has a slight anti-wrinkle rating of 3.0 out of 10. It contains one ingredient with proven anti-wrinkle efficacy: Asiaticoside (est. ≈0.3%), 
 derived from the plant Centella asiatica, an ingredient with moderate anti-wrinkle efficacy confirmed by one study.
 
Among others, Whamisa Pear Blossom Single Eye Serum also contains some ingredients marketed as effective in reducing wrinkles, specifically Adenosine, Madecassic Acid, and Asiatic Acid. 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 contribute to 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 additional anti-wrinkle efficacy through its moisturizing action.
