IsNtree HYALURONIC ACID MOIST CREAM 100ML

Values: 100% Genuine · Pregnancy-Safe · Fragrance-Free · Halal-Friendly* · Vegan-Friendly*

*100% Genuine is an Adilsons sourcing guarantee, not a brand claim — see Sourcing and Authenticity below. Pregnancy-Safe reflects that no retinoids, hydroquinone, salicylic acid above 2%, or chemical UV filters appear in this INCI — always confirm with your OB-GYN before adding any new skincare product. Halal- and Vegan-Friendly carry footnotes in the Conscious and Permissible Formulation section — read them before treating these as formal certifications.

Pros: Genuinely fast-absorbing despite a rich-feeling texture; generous 100ml size; fragrance-free with no EU-26 allergens detected; barrier-supportive multi-oil blend directly confirmed in the INCI.

Caveats: Multiple FA-conditional emollients (shea butter, several fatty alcohols/esters, three plant oils) mean this is not a strict fungal-acne-safe pick; the brand's "5 types of Hyaluronic Acid" marketing claim could only be independently corroborated to 2 distinct HA-derivative names in this SKU's retrievable INCI — treat the marketed count with caution; a prior 80ml formula exists with a slightly different ingredient list, so if you've used an older jar, expect a marginally different texture.

In Mauritius heat, the "grimy" feeling by midday is sebum and sweat doing their job, not dirt — washing more than twice daily strips the skin's acid mantle (target pH 4.5-5.5) and triggers compensatory oil overproduction, the exact oiliness people are usually trying to eliminate.

This cream breaks that cycle from the moisturizing side: its shea butter, apricot kernel oil, argan oil and safflower oil deliver replacement lipids to a barrier that over-cleansing or heat-stripped skin has lost, while Sodium Hyaluronate and Beta-Glucan hold water at the surface so skin doesn't reflexively overproduce sebum to compensate for dryness.

Compatibility checklist: Bedside-compatible (no sink needed) — yes. Requires rinsing — no. Requires precise dosage — no, a rough estimate works fine. Applicable with unwashed hands — reasonably, though washed hands are always preferable. Requires wait time — minimal.

Minimum viable routine position: Yes — this can function as your entire PM routine on a low-energy night: press onto skin as-is, no cleansing or actives required if skin isn't visibly dirty.

Sensory aversion check: The silicone slip agent keeps this from feeling heavy or tacky even applied generously, so it's a reasonable pick even when you're avoiding anything that feels "thick" on low-energy days.

Step 1 (When): AM and/or PM, as your final leave-on step (before sunscreen in AM).

Step 2 (How much): 1-2 pea-size amounts, adjusted for your skin's dryness level.

Step 3 (How): Press/pat into slightly damp skin rather than rubbing, to help lock in the water from any hydrating layers underneath.

Introduce this as the ONLY new product in your routine. Wait a full 14 days before adding anything else. This isolation window ensures you can identify whether any reaction is caused by this specific product.

1. Cleanser (optional) → 2. Hydrating toner (optional) → 3. Antioxidant/hydration serum (optional) → 4. IsNtree Hyaluronic Acid Moist Cream → 5. Sunscreen (non-negotiable). In Mauritius' humid mornings, apply this cream to slightly damp skin — the humectants inside draw ambient moisture rather than pulling water from deeper skin layers, which is why the cream performs especially well before 10am.

1. Oil cleanser (if wearing sunscreen/makeup) → 2. Water cleanser → 3. Toner → 4. Treatment serum (if any) → 5. IsNtree Hyaluronic Acid Moist Cream → 6. Optional occlusive seal on very dry nights. This product carries no strong actives, so it has no skin-cycling restrictions — it can accompany any other active lane you run on a given night as your closing moisturizer step.

Technique: Pat/press into skin rather than rubbing — friction disrupts the emulsion and increases the chance of pilling with anything applied afterward.

Required skin state: Slightly damp works best, to trap humectant-drawn moisture underneath the cream's oil layer.

Wait time: None strictly required, though waiting 1 minute before sunscreen in AM reduces pilling risk.

Hands deliver 100% of product. Cotton pads absorb approximately 30-40%. Use hands for this product.

This is an encyclopedia map of all product types. You do not use all of these daily. You select modules based on your skin state.

Global execution rules: Viscosity ladder — thinnest to thickest, water-phase before oil-phase, treatments before seals. Wait-time defaults: watery layers 10-20s, serum layers 30-60s, before sunscreen 10-15 minutes if going outdoors or applying makeup. Amount defaults: watery toner 5-8 drops; serum 2-3 drops; eye product ½ rice-grain per eye; gel moisturizer 1-1.5 peas, cream 1-2 peas; occlusive seal rice-to-pea size; sunscreen 2-finger rule for face plus 1 finger for neck. Hard cap rule: if the routine pills, stings, or feels heavy, reduce layers, not increase.

AM Maximum Stack: 1. Rinse/gentle cleanse (optional) → 2. pH-prep toner (optional) → 3. Hydrating toner layers (optional) → 4. Essence (optional) → 5. Mist (optional) → 6. Booster/soothing serum (optional) → 7. Antioxidant lane (choose one) → 8. Pigment support lane (optional) → 9. Hydration serum lane (optional) → 10. Oil-control lane (optional) → 11. Peptide/repair lane (optional) → 12. Eye serum/cream (optional) → 13. Moisturizer (this cream) → 14. Optional sealing layer (only if dry/AC) → 15. Sunscreen SPF50+ PA++++ (non-negotiable) → 16. Lip SPF (optional). In AM, prioritize comfort + SPF adherence over stacking.

PM Maximum Stack: 1. Micellar (optional) → 2. Oil cleanser/balm (if SPF/makeup) → 3. Water cleanser → 4. pH-prep toner (optional) → 5. Hydrating toner layers (optional) → 6. Essence (optional) → 7. Soothing/barrier serum (optional) → 8. Anchor active (if you run one) → 9. Targeted serum (optional) → 10. Moisturizer (this cream) → 11. Sleeping mask (optional) → 12. Occlusive seal (optional, if very dry) → 13. Spot treatment (as needed) → 14. Lip sleeping mask (optional). Do not layer retinoids with AHA/BHA in the same night; keep "one lane" per night.

Lane strictness: One-lane rule — Retinoid OR Exfoliation OR Strong Vitamin C (LAA) OR Acne-control active per routine; barrier/hydration can always accompany. If unsure, default to the safest lane (barrier/hydration) and reduce layers.

This sits at the "thick cream" rung of the viscosity ladder — apply after every watery/serum layer, as the last leave-on step before sunscreen (AM) or an optional occlusive seal (PM).

Layering rule: Thinnest to thickest, water-phase before oil-phase — this cream is designed to be the closing step of your water-phase-to-oil-phase routine.

Phase compatibility: An oil-in-water emulsion with a silicone (Cyclohexasiloxane) slip layer on top — this is why it applies like a lighter lotion despite a rich-looking texture in the jar.

Rheological note: This product appears thick in the jar but spreads thin on skin. Do not judge the texture by how it looks in the container.

Before starting this product, no specific prerequisite routine is required — this is a foundational moisturizer suitable as an early step in building any routine.

Dehydration: Sodium Hyaluronate and Hydrolyzed Hyaluronic Acid draw and hold water at the skin surface, addressing the "tight, flaky" sensation of dehydrated skin.

Barrier weakness: The shea butter, apricot kernel, argan and safflower oil blend replaces lipids a stripped or over-cleansed barrier has lost, supporting the skin's natural moisture-retention function.

Secondary benefits: Beta-Glucan and Panthenol offer mild soothing support for reactive or irritated skin.

What this product cannot do: Cannot treat active acne or hyperpigmentation (it carries no targeted actives for either); cannot substitute for sunscreen; cannot "fix" a genuinely damaged barrier overnight — barrier repair is a multi-week process, not a single-application fix.

All recommendations below are verified status:active and in stock in our catalog as of this writing.

• IsNtree Hyaluronic Acid Low-pH Cleansing Foam — a gentle, pH-balanced cleanser from the same hydration line; use before this cream in either routine to avoid stripping the barrier this cream is trying to support.
• IsNtree Ultra-Low Molecular Hyaluronic Acid Toner — a lightweight hydrating toner to apply before this cream, priming skin with a water layer for the cream's humectants to hold onto.
• Dr.Althea Gentle Vitamin C Serum — a niacinamide + low-dose Vitamin C derivative serum for AM antioxidant support; apply after toner, before this cream.
• IsNtree Hyaluronic Acid Watery Sun Gel — same hydration line, wear this sunscreen over this cream as your final AM step (wait 1 minute to reduce pilling).

Pilling pairs: Applying this cream too heavily, then a silicone-heavy sunscreen on top without waiting, is the most common pilling scenario — reduce the amount of cream used and wait a full 60 seconds before your next layer.

Chronic stress elevates cortisol, which breaks down collagen, increases transepidermal water loss (TEWL), and compromises barrier function — the exact mechanism this cream's lipid-replacement and humectant combination is designed to counter.

Stress-skin protocol: On high-stress weeks when skin runs drier and more reactive than usual, layering this cream slightly heavier than your normal dose (still within the 1-2 pea-size range) over Panthenol and Beta-Glucan's soothing support can help offset stress-driven barrier strain.

Permeability: Film-Forming (uncertain) — this cream's shea butter, plant oil, and silicone (Cyclohexasiloxane) content create a light occlusive film on skin rather than a fully water-permeable finish.

The emollient/oil base sits on the skin surface rather than absorbing completely, similar to most rich moisturizing creams — water contact during wudu may not fully reach the skin underneath a freshly-applied layer.

Removal method (if needed before ablution): A brief water rinse with light friction should be sufficient to disperse most of the surface film, given this is a lighter-finish cream rather than a heavy balm.

Adilsons provides this assessment based on the product's physical properties. Rulings on wudu validity vary between scholars. Consult your own trusted Islamic authority.

MYTH: "Rich creams are only for dry skin." REALITY: This cream's fast-absorbing silicone slip agent means even combination skin can use it as a nightly barrier-support step without feeling greasy — texture in the jar doesn't predict how a formula wears on skin.

MYTH: "More Hyaluronic Acid types on the label means better hydration." REALITY: This SKU's independently retrievable INCI confirms only 2 distinct HA-derivative names (Sodium Hyaluronate, Hydrolyzed Hyaluronic Acid) rather than the "5 types" marketed by some retailer copy — real hydration comes from formulation quality and humectant/emollient balance, not a headline ingredient count.

AC environment warning: In air-conditioned environments, the Sodium Hyaluronate in this cream can draw moisture FROM your deeper skin layers instead of from the air if left unsealed. Since this product is itself an emollient-rich cream (not a bare HA serum), it largely seals itself — but on extended AC days, consider a thin occlusive layer on top if you still feel tight by evening.

Hard water note: Mauritius tap water hardness varies by region; hard water can leave a calcium-stearate film after cleansing that causes tightness. This cream's emollient blend helps counteract that post-cleanse tight feeling as your moisturizing step.

*The brand/retailer-marketed "5 types of Hyaluronic Acid" claim for this line could not be independently reconciled against this exact SKU's own retrievable INCI, which surfaced only 2 distinct HA-derivative names. Treat the "5 types" framing as unverified for this specific product.

Full INCI List: Water, Glycerin, Hydrogenated Polydecene, Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride, Dipropylene Glycol, Cyclohexasiloxane, Butyrospermum Parkii (Shea) Butter, Polyglyceryl-3 Methylglucose Distearate, Cetyl Alcohol, Betaine, Pentylene Glycol, Glyceryl Stearate, Behenyl Alcohol, 1,2-Hexanediol, Pentaerythrityl Distearate, Laminaria Japonica Extract, Eclipta Prostrata Leaf Extract, Hydroxyacetophenone, Prunus Armeniaca (Apricot) Kernel Oil, Argania Spinosa Kernel Oil, Carthamus Tinctorius (Safflower) Seed Oil, Glyceryl Caprylate, Ethylhexylglycerin, Methylpropanediol, [--- Estimated 1% Line ---] Sodium Hyaluronate, Fructooligosaccharides, Hydrogenated Lecithin, Disodium EDTA, Beta-Glucan, Hydrolyzed Hyaluronic Acid, Butylene Glycol, Ammonium Acryloyldimethyltaurate/VP Copolymer, Sodium Stearoyl Glutamate, Polyglyceryl-10 Laurate, Polyquaternium-51, Camellia Sinensis Leaf Water, Panthenol, Cynara Scolymus (Artichoke) Leaf Extract, Pteris Multifida Extract, Avena Sativa (Oat) Kernel Extract.

Position of the estimated 1% line is approximate, based on standard INCI-concentration-ordering logic, and is not lab-confirmed. Source: search-engine snippet corroboration of INCIDecoder's listing across two independent queries (direct page fetch was blocked in this research pass) — treated as medium confidence per this skill's fallback rule.

Preservative system: 1,2-Hexanediol, Glyceryl Caprylate, and Ethylhexylglycerin form a modern, paraben-free preservative-booster system; Disodium EDTA is a chelating agent that supports preservative efficacy.

Fragrance status: Fragrance-Free — no "Fragrance" or "Parfum" ingredient appears in the declared INCI.

Scent description: No detectable added scent expected based on the ingredient list; any faint natural odor from the shea butter or plant oils is normal and not a fragrance additive.

EU 26 allergen screen: None of the 26 EU-regulated fragrance allergens were detected in the declared INCI list.

Alcohol disclosure: Fatty Alcohols Only (moisturizing, not drying) — Cetyl Alcohol and Behenyl Alcohol are both fatty alcohols that support the emulsion's texture and are not the drying ethanol/isopropyl-type alcohols.

Halal status: *Self-assessed by Adilsons based on available INCI data. No ethanol from fermentation, no porcine-derived ingredients, and no haram animal-derived ingredients detected in the declared ingredient list. This is NOT a formal Halal certification. Muslims with stricter requirements should consult their own scholars.

Vegan status: *Self-assessed by Adilsons based on available INCI data. No animal-derived ingredients detected in this specific SKU's declared INCI. This is NOT a formal vegan certification by The Vegan Society or equivalent body. Note: IsNtree is not a 100% vegan brand across its full range (some other SKUs contain honey), but this exact product's INCI shows no animal-derived ingredients.

Cruelty-free status: *Brand-stated policy — independent sources (crueltyfreekitty.com, consciousbunny.com) describe Isntree as cruelty-free by brand policy, with no PETA or Leaping Bunny certification specifically identified. Not independently certified by a third-party audit body.

Microplastic status: Not confirmed — Cyclohexasiloxane is a liquid silicone, not classified as microplastic under the EU's definition (solid, insoluble synthetic polymer particles); no other polymer of concern was flagged in this INCI.

MFDS classification: Not confirmed — general moisturizer claims typically fall under General Cosmetic classification in Korea absent a specific functional filing, and no MFDS Functional Cosmetic registration was found or checked against an official registry this pass.

Marketing claim note: A retailer/aggregator search summary mentioned a "Matrixyl" anti-aging peptide claim for this product — this could NOT be corroborated against the actual retrieved INCI (no Matrixyl or palmitoyl peptide of any kind appears in the ingredient list) and is rejected as likely a mixed-up summary referencing a different product. It is not included as a claim on this page.

Evidence confidence: High for the barrier-supportive multi-oil emollient blend, since it's directly confirmed by the retrieved INCI order. Low* for the marketed "5 types of Hyaluronic Acid" framing, since only 2 distinct HA-derivative names were independently confirmed for this exact SKU.

*Marketing-Only where not independently corroborated — see the myth-replacement note above.

Reformulation history: A prior 80ml-size version of this product exists as a separate discontinued listing. The current 100ml version reportedly added Cetyl Alcohol and Cyclohexasiloxane versus the older 80ml formula — this is a medium-confidence finding based on a single corroborating search summary, not an independently fetched source page, so treat the specific ingredient-change detail with some caution.

Fungal Acne Safety: FA-Conditional. Contains Butyrospermum Parkii (Shea) Butter, Polyglyceryl-3 Methylglucose Distearate, Cetyl Alcohol, Glyceryl Stearate, Prunus Armeniaca (Apricot) Kernel Oil, Argania Spinosa Kernel Oil, Carthamus Tinctorius (Safflower) Seed Oil, and Hydrogenated Lecithin — all flagged as FA-conditional on standard Malassezia-feeding ingredient screens. Some retailer listings market this product as fungal-acne-safe; our own ingredient-level screen disagrees, so FA-prone users should patch test rather than trust the retailer claim outright.

Assessment: Low-to-Medium. The silicone slip agent minimizes pilling in isolation, but applying too thick a layer before a film-forming sunscreen increases risk.

Mitigation: Use a slightly thinner layer if layering sunscreen on top; wait 60 seconds; pat rather than rub.

Color baseline: Fresh product should be a smooth, uniform white-to-off-white cream. Yellowing, an oily separation on the surface, or a rancid smell suggests oxidation of the plant oil content and the product should be discarded, since oxidized oils can generate free radicals on skin.

Storage: Keep the jar or tube away from direct heat and humidity — a hot bathroom shelf accelerates oxidation of the shea butter and plant oil content. Store in a cool, dry cabinet.

Spoilage signs: Rancid or sour smell distinct from the mild natural plant-oil scent, visible separation that doesn't remix, or a gritty texture. When in doubt, discard.

Patch test: Apply to inner forearm, wait 24 hours; then behind the ear, wait another 24 hours; only then begin facial use.

If adverse reaction occurs: STOP ALL ACTIVES. For 72 hours, use ONLY gentle cleanser + plain moisturizer + mineral SPF. NO acids, retinoids, Vitamin C, exfoliants, or essential oils. After 72h, reintroduce ONE product per 14 days.

Emergency stop signals: Hives, swelling, blistering, persistent burning, or breathing difficulty — seek emergency care immediately.

1. Applying too generously in humid weather, leading to a heavier feel than needed. 2. Skipping the "damp skin" application tip, which reduces how much of the humectant's water-binding benefit you actually get. 3. Layering it under a film-forming sunscreen without waiting, causing pilling. 4. Assuming the "5 types of HA" marketing claim guarantees more hydration than a well-formulated 2-type product. 5. Using it as a spot treatment for acne — it has no acne-targeting actives.

Overuse threshold: There is no strict overuse ceiling for a basic moisturizer, but applying significantly more than 1-2 peas per use mostly wastes product without proportionally more benefit, and may worsen the oily feel in humid weather.

Usage math: At roughly 1-2 pea-size amounts per application, twice daily, a 100ml jar yields approximately 130-160 applications.

Lifespan: At twice-daily use, expect the jar to last approximately 2-3 months, consistent with community-reported usage.

Reorder timing: Reorder roughly 2 weeks before you expect the jar to run out, to allow for shipping time. Correct dosage (not overdosing) extends the jar's life without sacrificing results.

This cream is a foundational, closing-step moisturizer suitable for both AM and PM routines — the rest of your routine should be built around whatever active concerns you're addressing, with this cream sealing in hydration at the end.

AM: 1. Cleanse (optional) → 2. Toner (optional) → 3. Antioxidant serum (optional) → 4. This Cream (1-2 peas) → 5. Sunscreen (non-negotiable, wait 1 minute after this cream).

PM: 1. Double-cleanse (if wearing sunscreen/makeup) → 2. Toner → 3. Treatment serum (if any) → 4. This Cream (1-2 peas) → 5. Optional occlusive seal on very dry nights.

If your skin is barrier-compromised right now: apply this cream slightly heavier and pair it with the IsNtree Low-pH Cleansing Foam below to avoid re-stripping the barrier between applications.

If you are in AC all day: this cream's own oil content largely seals its own humectants, but on very dry AC days a thin additional occlusive on top can help.

Stock-true bundle: IsNtree Low-pH Cleansing Foam + IsNtree Ultra-Low Molecular HA Toner + this Moist Cream makes a complete, straightforward 3-step routine from the same hydration line.

After purchasing, you will receive our skincare education email series covering this product in depth.

The recommendations above are based on formulation synergy with IsNtree Hyaluronic Acid Moist Cream, not on margin or stock levels. If a pairing does not exist in our catalog, we say so. If you already own a product that fills the same role, use what you have first.

If you want a lighter, oil-free texture for oily/combination skin or FA-conditional sensitivity, Isntree Hyaluronic Acid Aqua Gel Cream (same hydration line, oil-free gel-cream format, verified in stock) is the in-catalog alternative — see the trade-off breakdown below.

Choose IsNtree Hyaluronic Acid Moist Cream over the Aqua Gel Cream if you need richer barrier-repair lipid content for dry or normal skin: the multi-oil emollient base delivers replacement lipids the gel-cream's oil-free formula does not provide.

If your skin is dry, normal, or barrier-compromised: this cream's richer lipid content is the better match.

If your skin is oily, combination, or FA-conditional/acne-prone: do not upgrade to this cream — the oil-free Aqua Gel Cream alternative avoids the FA-conditional ingredient load.

If you are in humid, AC-free environments most of the day: the lighter gel-cream alternative will likely feel more comfortable.

Don't upgrade if: you have confirmed fungal-acne-prone skin and want a strict FA-safe formula; you find rich creams uncomfortable in Mauritius humidity; you are already using a similar barrier-repair cream and it's working.

If you match the dry/normal/barrier-compromised trigger and none of the "don't upgrade" conditions apply, THIS is worth choosing. If not, the gel-cream alternative is sufficient and lighter. Consistency beats complexity.

This product's PRIMARY function is: daily hydration and barrier-lipid support. You do NOT need this if you already own an open, unfinished moisturizer serving the same role — finish your current product before purchasing.

Inventory audit: Check for an already-open moisturizer with a similar humectant + emollient profile. This product's typical PAO (Period After Opening) is 6-12 months for jar/cream formats — buying new while an old one sits unused within date is unnecessary spend.

Stacking assessment: No Benefit if you already run a similarly rich barrier cream (same mechanism, no added benefit from doubling up). Marginal Benefit if you're switching from a lighter gel-cream and want more lipid replacement for a dry season.

Quick verification tips: Genuine IsNtree Hyaluronic Acid line packaging carries a consistent pastel color-coded label system across the sub-line; check the batch code is present and legible on the jar/tube base, and cross-reference against the Authenticity page for anything more.

Brand: IsNtree, headquartered in South Korea. Parent company: No conglomerate parent identified — the brand traces to a Korean skincare blog run by founder Jinwoo Kim starting around 2008, one of Korea's earliest skincare blogs, before the formal IsNtree brand launched. Hero lines: the Hyaluronic Acid hydration line (this cream, sun gel, water essence, aqua gel cream, sleeping mask, low-pH cleansing foam) and the Green Tea oil-control/soothing line.

The brand's name is a portmanteau alluding to "island," "natural," and "tree" — reflecting a stated eco-friendly, plant-based, self-sustaining-ecosystem-inspired formulation philosophy. IsNtree states a community-centric approach, citing campaigns supporting underprivileged groups, women, and people with disabilities alongside its clean-formulation stance. Whether manufacturing is in-house or contract-based was not confirmed this research pass.

Individually-attributed reviews with named skin type and platform were not found for this exact SKU in this research pass — only aggregate summaries across Amazon, iHerb, and skincare-blog sources were available, without direct fetchable review text. Rather than invent specific quotes, we report the aggregate themes plainly: reviewers commonly describe it as lightweight and fast-absorbing despite a rich-feeling texture, note the 100ml size lasting 2-3 months at twice-daily use, and describe it as suitable across dry, combination, and sensitive skin in aggregate feedback. No clearly-sourced negative theme surfaced in this pass beyond general confusion between the current 100ml formula and the older discontinued 80ml version — this is a genuine research gap, not evidence the product has no complaints.

Sustainability: Standard cosmetic-grade plastic packaging; check local recycling guidance for the specific plastic type stamped on the container before disposal. No refill program identified for this SKU.

Is this safe to use while pregnant? Yes — no retinoids, hydroquinone, salicylic acid above 2%, or chemical UV filters appear in this INCI. Always confirm with your OB-GYN before adding any new skincare product.

Is it really fungal-acne safe, like some retailers claim? Our own ingredient-level screen disagrees with that framing — several FA-conditional plant oils and esters are present. We classify it as FA-Conditional, not FA-Safe. Patch test if you're FA-prone.

Does it really contain "5 types of Hyaluronic Acid"? This exact SKU's independently retrievable INCI confirmed only 2 distinct HA-derivative names. Treat the "5 types" marketing claim with caution for this specific product.

Will it feel greasy in Mauritius heat? Community feedback and its silicone slip agent suggest no — it's described as fast-absorbing despite a rich-looking texture, though combination/oily skin may prefer a thinner layer in peak humidity.

Can I use this both morning and night? Yes — it carries no time-of-day restriction or photosensitizing ingredient.

Humectant

An ingredient (like Hyaluronic Acid) that draws and binds water to the skin surface.

Emollient

An ingredient (like shea butter or plant oils) that softens skin and fills gaps between skin cells.

Occlusive

An ingredient that forms a protective film on skin to slow water loss.

Oil-in-water emulsion

A cream structure where oil droplets are dispersed within a water-based continuous phase, giving a lighter feel than a water-in-oil formula.

FA-Conditional

An ingredient that may feed Malassezia yeast (linked to fungal acne) in some individuals but not others — worth patch testing if you're fungal-acne-prone.

INCI

International Nomenclature of Cosmetic Ingredients — the standardized list of ingredients on a product label.

Estimated 1% line

An approximate point in an INCI list below which ingredients are typically present at under 1% concentration, based on standard concentration-ordering conventions.

PAO (Period After Opening)

The recommended usage window after a product is first opened, shown on packaging as a jar icon with a number of months.

Store Policies: For the most up-to-date information, please review our Shipping Policy and Refund Policy.

Best for: Dry, normal, or sensitive skin looking for a daily, fragrance-free hydration-and-barrier-support cream that feels lighter than its rich texture suggests.

Key benefits: Confirmed barrier-supportive multi-oil emollient blend; fast-absorbing despite a rich feel, thanks to a silicone slip agent; fragrance-free with no EU-26 allergens detected; generous 100ml size.

Keep in mind: Several FA-conditional ingredients make this a caution, not a go-to, for fungal-acne-prone skin; the marketed "5 types of Hyaluronic Acid" claim could not be fully corroborated for this exact SKU; a prior 80ml formula exists with a slightly different ingredient list.

Assessment: Consult Oncologist. This formula is fragrance-free and retinoid-free, which are both favorable signs for treatment-sensitized skin, but it carries a rich multi-oil/emollient load (shea butter, three plant oils) that some oncology skincare protocols restrict during active treatment.

Consult your oncology care team before introducing any new skincare products during treatment.
