Product summary

"FENTY BEAUTY by Rihanna - Gloss Bomb Cream Color Drip Lip Cream" is effective for: Moisturizing

It could be helpful for: Anti-aging, but its actives are not the most effective or are not well-studied.

Ingredient callouts

  • it includes a form of Retinoids (vitamin A) - retinyl palmitate 0.15% - 0.70%, but this type of vitamin A is not very effective. It could in theory help with fine lines and wrinkles, but the effect is most likely minimal.
  • We like that this moisturizer contains peptides (palmitoyl tripeptide-1 0.15% - 0.60%). There are many different kind of Peptides and they are naturally present in our skin. They all are a combination of aminoacids. Some of them work as natural antibiotics, promote wound-healing and production of collagen. The science is still not settled on how effective Peptides are in skincare, but it is very likely that they have a benefit. Peptides might help restore the skin barrier and fight the signs of aging. At the very least, Peptides work as humectants: they attract water to the upper layer of the skin and improve its hydration.
