Why it works

Supports lightweight hydration : Glycerin, Betaine, Aloe Leaf Juice, and Sodium Hyaluronate complement daily skincare focused on maintaining a comfortable, hydrated skin feel.* Topical Hyaluronic Acid has been studied for improving skin hydration.

Helps refresh dehydrated-looking skin : Aloe Leaf Juice and water-based humectants accompany Sodium Hyaluronate to support a fresh, smoother-looking appearance.*

Provides oil-free moisture : The formula is made without facial oils and uses water-based moisturising ingredients for a lightweight application suitable for normal and oily skin types.*

Complements blemish-focused routines : Zinc PCA is included in the formula. Zinc has been studied in relation to skin and sebum-related functions, but those findings do not establish that this finished gel treats blemishes.*

How to use
  • Apply the gel to clean skin and spread evenly across the face.
  • Use according to your regular skincare routine. If applying during the day, follow with sunscreen.
  • Avoid direct contact with the eyes. Patch test before regular use, especially if your skin is sensitive.

Ingredient focus

FORMULATED
WITH PURPOSE.

01

Supports daily hydration

Sodium Hyaluronate, Glycerin, Betaine, and Aloe Leaf Juice support the formula’s water-based moisturising design.*

02

Provides a fresh gel texture

Sclerotium Gum, Butylene Glycol, Pentylene Glycol, and Propanediol contribute to the formula’s lightweight gel consistency.*

03

Zinc PCA accompanies the formula’s hydrating and botanical ingredients. Ingredient-level research on zinc provides general context but does not establish that this product treats blemishes.*

Questions, answered

Who is this gel best for?

This gel is designed for normal and oily skin types. Its lightweight, oil-free texture may also suit combination skin or routines that prefer water-based hydration.

Unlike richer creams, this gel is oil-free and lightweight, providing water-based moisturising care without a heavier skin feel.

Does it contain Hyaluronic Acid?

Yes. It contains Sodium Hyaluronate, a form of Hyaluronic Acid commonly used in skincare for hydration.

Can I use it if I have blemish-prone skin?

Yes. The formula contains Zinc PCA and may fit into routines for blemish-prone skin. However, it should not be considered a treatment for acne or a way to prevent breakouts. Individual skin tolerance can vary.

Is it non-comedogenic?

There is no verified non-comedogenic testing available for this gel, so it should not be described as non-comedogenic.

Is it oil free?

Yes. This is an oil-free gel, with no facial oils included in the ingredient list.

Does it contain fragrance?

Yes. Parfum and fragrance components from natural essential oils are included in the formula. The aroma features herbal, citrus, and verbena notes.

Is it suitable for dry skin?

Is it vegan?

Yes. This gel is vegan.

What should I do if the gel irritates my skin?

Discontinue use if redness, itching, burning, or discomfort develops. Patch testing is recommended before regular use. Consult a dermatologist if irritation persists.

    Works well with my routine

    I use this after my serum and before sunscreen in the morning. It layers nicely and does not make my skin feel overloaded. At night, I sometimes use a little more when my skin feels dehydrated.

    Feels refreshing

    The gel feels really refreshing when I apply it. It sinks in quickly, and my skin feels soft afterward rather than coated.

    Nice hydration without heaviness

    I was looking for something more hydrating than a basic gel but not as rich as a cream. This fits that space really well. My skin feels smoother and less tight after cleansing, and the finish stays light.

    Easy morning step

    This is exactly the kind of moisturizer I like in the morning. It feels light, gives my skin some hydration, and does not leave a sticky finish.

    No greasy feeling

    The lightweight texture makes a big difference for me. Some moisturizers feel nice at first but leave my skin looking greasy later. This one settles down quickly and keeps my skin feeling comfortable.
