Finish and Appearance Test: Slightly Dewy

ProductAppearance
Sisley Black Rose Skin Infusion CreamSlightly dewy – The high water content (rosa damascena flower water) and humectants like glycerin provide a hydrated, natural-looking finish. The emollients (shea butter, dimethicone) add a subtle dewiness without being overly shiny.
La Mer Crème de la MerSlightly greasy – The combination of seaweed extract, mineral oil, and petrolatum creates a dewy, moisturized appearance on the skin. However, due to the occlusive ingredients, it may lean towards a slightly greasy finish, especially on oily skin types.
Clé de Peau Beauté La Crème Natural – The combination of water, glycerin, and squalane create a natural, hydrated appearance. The dimethicone adds a subtle luminosity or glow to the skin without being overly dewy or greasy.
Chantecaille Bio Lifting Cream+Slightly dewy – Similar to the Sisley cream, the high water content (rosa damascena flower water) and humectants like glycerin provide a hydrated, natural-looking finish. The shea butter adds a subtle dewiness without being overly shiny.
Guerlain Orchidée Impériale CreamSlightly dewy – The combination of water, glycerin, and mineral oil is creates a moisturized, slightly dewy appearance. The orchid extract and the luxurious texture contributes to a luminous, subtly radiant finish on the skin.
