Based on the ingredients included, "Eucerin - Anti-Pigment Night Cream" works well for moisturizing the skin. This moisturizer uses a good combo of humectants and emollients. These both types of ingredients are essentials for improving the skin hydration and keeping the skin barrier healthy. Humectants in this product (panthenol and glycerin) help to increase the water content in the upper layer of the skin. (These ingredients do so by "capturing" water molecules from the outside air or from within the deeper layers of the skin). Chondrus crispus extract, squalane, cetearyl alcohol, glyceryl stearate citrate and isopropyl palmitate in this product help decrease the water evoporation from the skin, so that it stays hydrated for longer. These ingredients also soften the skin and take away the feeling of tightness and dryness.

What can the product work for?

Does not work for

Anti-aging

Evens skin tone

What does the product description say?

This anti-pigment night cream helps to reverse the harsh effects of sunlight exposure and ageing which can trigger hyperpigmentation, leaving the skin with dark patches and age spots that can make the skin look uneven.

Source: Feelunique

This product can help reduce hypepigmentation and even out the skin tone because it contains the following effective ingredients: isobutylamido thiazolyl resorcinol.

The following ingredient (ingredients) in this product might be helpful, but there is no evidence to confirm that it actually can help even out the skin tone: glycyrrhiza inflata root extract, isoquercitrin.

Keep in mind that you would need to apply any topical skincare targetted at hypigmentation consistently for a couple of months to get a result. No topical skincare product can help get rid of hyperpigmentation (including post-acne marks and age spots) instantly.

isobutylamido thiazolyl resorcinol 0.35% - 0.8%

Irritation risk:

Concentration: Effectiveness: HIGH

Sometimes referred to as Thiamidol (patented by Beiersdorf). A compound that can reduce melanin production in skin. Can help to fade pigmentation spots quicker and even out the skin tone. It is a relatively new compound and the research on it is ongoing. The first studies show that it might be as effective in reducing hyperpigmentation as hydroquinone but with fewer side effects

isoquercitrin 0.05% - 0.25%

Irritation risk:

Concentration: Effectiveness: MEDIUM

Antioxidant that might help reduce free radicals and reduce melanin production, but more research is needed to understand if it is effective in skin

glycyrrhiza inflata root extract 0.2% - 0.75%

Irritation risk:

Concentration: Effectiveness: LOW

A plant extract that can help lighten the skin and calm down inflammation. Might be helpful in neutralizing free radicals

Moisturizing

What does the product description say?

Anti-Pigment Night Cream

Source: From product name

This product can help improve hydration of the skin with the two types of ingredients.

The first type is called “humectants”:
these ingredients help attract water. When humectants are on the surface of the skin, they “pull in” the moisture from the outside environment, or from within deeper layers of the skin. The following ingredients in this product do the job: glycerin.

This product also contains ingredients called “occlusives”. They help reduce the speed with which our skin loses moisture to the outside environment. These ingredients also help soften the upper layer of the skin, so it feels less tight and nicer to the touch. The following ingredients in this product do the job: chondrus crispus extract, squalane.

The following ingredients in this product are especially good for supporting the skin barrier and helping with the hydration level: panthenol

chondrus crispus extract 0.1% - 0.4%

Irritation risk: Comedogenicity: High

Concentration: Effectiveness: HIGH

Red algae extract that helps attract water to the upper layer of the skin and create a nicer product consistency

squalane 1.8% - 2.7%

Irritation risk:

Concentration: Effectiveness: HIGH

An oil naturally present in skin. Works as an emollient to soften the skin and form a protective layer on its surface without a greasy feeling.

glycerin 4.3% - 6.4%

Irritation risk:

Concentration: Effectiveness: HIGH

One of the best moisturizing ingredients. Naturally present in skin. It attracts water to the upper layer of the skin working as a humectant

Anti-oxidation

This product contains antioxidants (isoquercitrin) that might be able to help neutralize free radicals in skin to lessen the damage it gets from the UV light (sun). There is not enough evidence to confirm their effectiveness in skin though.

isoquercitrin 0.05% - 0.25%

Irritation risk:

Concentration: Effectiveness: MEDIUM

Antioxidant that might help reduce free radicals and reduce melanin production, but more research is needed to understand if it is effective in skin

glycyrrhiza inflata root extract 0.2% - 0.75%

Irritation risk:

Concentration: Effectiveness: LOW

A plant extract that can help lighten the skin and calm down inflammation. Might be helpful in neutralizing free radicals

tocopherol 0.15% - 0.6%

Irritation risk:

Anti-aging

What does the product description say?

This anti-pigment night cream helps to reverse the harsh effects of sunlight exposure and ageing which can trigger hyperpigmentation, leaving the skin with dark patches and age spots that can make the skin look uneven.

Source: Feelunique

This product does not contain ingredients that are able to reduce fine lines and wrinkles or help with skin elasticity, but it can improve the look of the skin temporarily through moisturization. Well-moisturized skin might also be able to repair the sun damage better.This ingredient - isoquercitrin - could be helpful for preventing or repairing signs of aging in theory, but there is no evidence that it actually works.

This ingredient isoquercitrin might be able to help neutralize free radicals in skin and help it fight off some of the sun damage.
