What it is
Hydrating gel-cream moisturizer that leverages low-molecular hyaluronic acid and soothing humectants to deliver lasting moisture with a light, refreshing feel.
Who it's for
- Normal, oily, or combination skin needing weightless hydration.
- Those who prefer a non-greasy finish that layers under sunscreen/makeup.
- Users buffering actives (retinoids/acids) with a calming moisturizer.
Key ingredients (INCI)
- Low-Molecular Hyaluronic Acid — humectant hydration for plump feel.
- Panthenol — soothes and supports moisture retention.
- Madecassoside/Centella-derived extracts — calming comfort for sensitized skin.
- Lightweight emollients — provide slip without heavy occlusion.
Free-from / texture
- Gel-cream texture; fast-absorbing with dewy, non-sticky finish.
- Generally low fragrance; review INCI for sensitivities.
- Lightweight and layerable under sunscreen or makeup.
How to use & order
- Apply after serums, morning and/or night.
- Use a nickel-sized amount and spread over face and neck.
- Finish with sunscreen in the daytime; add a thicker occlusive if very dry.
Conflicts & layering tips
- Compatible with most actives; if using strong exfoliants, ensure skin is calm before application.
- Layer under sunscreen and makeup; allow to absorb to reduce pilling.
- Patch test if very sensitive or post-procedure.
Evidence & notes
- Hyaluronic acid is a cosmetic humectant; plumping/smoothing effects are cosmetic.
- Panthenol and centella derivatives help comfort skin; not a drug product.
- Seal with a richer cream at night if in very dry climates to reduce water loss.
Safety
- For external use only; discontinue if irritation occurs.
- Patch test along the jawline before first full use, especially if reactive.
- Avoid applying on broken or compromised skin; consult a professional if post-procedure.
- Pregnancy/breastfeeding: cosmetic ingredients; defer to your physician for personal guidance.
