This intensely hydrating cream combines the regenerative power of PDRN (from salmon DNA) with the plumping moisture of Hyaluronic Acid. Designed to deeply moisturise, strengthen the skin barrier, and restore a youthful bounce, its rich yet smooth texture provides lasting comfort without heaviness—making it ideal for skin stressed by sun, air-conditioning, and environmental factors in Mauritius.

Feeling like your skin is constantly tight, dull, or dehydrated, no matter what you apply? This cream is designed to break that cycle by delivering deep, lasting moisture.

• Who it's for: Primarily for those with dry, dehydrated, or combination skin. Also excellent for mature skin or anyone with a compromised skin barrier needing comfort and repair.
• What it does: Deeply hydrates, plumps fine lines caused by dryness, strengthens the skin's moisture barrier, and promotes a smoother, more resilient complexion.
• Texture & Finish: A soft, plush cream that melts into the skin, leaving it feeling nourished and comfortable with a healthy, subtle glow.
• Key Actives: Sodium DNA (PDRN), Sodium Hyaluronate, Niacinamide, Adenosine.

1. Cleanse: Start with a clean, damp face.
2. Apply Cream: Scoop a pea-sized amount of the PDRN Cream and gently smooth it over your face and neck until absorbed.
3. Protect (AM) or Seal (PM): In the morning, always follow with sunscreen. In the evening, this is your final step.

Mindful Tip: Already have a moisturiser? Finish it first to prevent waste before introducing a new one.

For a resilient and hydrated start to your day:

1. Cleanse: Wash your face with a gentle cleanser.
2. Tone (Optional): Apply a hydrating toner or essence to damp skin for an extra layer of moisture.
3. Serum (Optional): Apply any lightweight serums (like Vitamin C or Niacinamide). Wait 60 seconds.
4. Apply PDRN Cream: Take a pea-sized amount and gently massage it into your face and neck.
5. Sunscreen: Wait 1-2 minutes, then apply a broad-spectrum sunscreen with SPF 30 or higher. This is a critical step to protect your skin.

Focus on repair and nourishment overnight:

1. Double Cleanse: Start with an oil cleanser to dissolve sunscreen and makeup, then follow with a water-based foam or gel cleanser.
2. Tone/Essence (Optional): Apply your hydrating toner or essence.
3. Treatment Serum (Optional): Apply your targeted serums (like retinoids or exfoliating acids on alternate nights). Wait for it to absorb.
4. Apply PDRN Cream: As your final step, apply a pea-sized amount to lock in moisture and support overnight skin repair.

Texture Tip: Always apply your products from the thinnest consistency (like a watery toner) to the thickest (this cream).

• Amount: A pea-sized amount is sufficient for the entire face. Use a little extra for the neck.
• Frequency: Can be used twice daily (AM and PM). If you have combination or oily skin, you may prefer to use it only at night during humid summer months.
• Method: Scoop the cream with a clean finger or spatula. Warm it slightly between your fingertips, then gently smooth it over your skin in upward and outward motions. Pat gently to aid absorption.

How to Adapt It for Your Skin:

• If you have very dry skin or are in A/C: Apply it over a hydrating toner or serum (like one with Hyaluronic Acid) to lock in extra moisture.
• If you have combination skin: You can apply a thinner layer on your T-zone and a normal amount on drier areas like your cheeks.
• If you are using strong actives (like Retinol or AHAs): This cream works beautifully as a buffer. Apply it after your active has absorbed to soothe the skin and support your barrier.

• Immediately: Skin feels instantly hydrated, soothed, and comfortable. Dry, tight sensations are relieved, and the skin has a soft, plump feel.
• Within 2-4 Weeks: With consistent use, you may notice that your skin barrier feels stronger. Skin is less prone to dehydration throughout the day, looks plumper, and fine lines caused by dryness appear softened.
• After 8+ Weeks: The cumulative benefits of PDRN and barrier-supporting ingredients become more apparent. Skin texture may appear smoother and more refined, and the overall complexion looks healthier and more resilient.

Note: Results vary based on individual skin type, consistency of use, and lifestyle factors. Daily sun protection is essential to see and maintain results.

The Myth: "Oily or combination skin doesn't need a moisturizer, especially in a humid place like Mauritius."

The Reality: This is a common mistake that can make oily skin worse. When you skip moisturiser, your skin can become dehydrated (lacking water), causing it to produce even more oil to compensate. This leads to a vicious cycle of shine and clogged pores. A lightweight, non-comedogenic moisturiser like this one provides the necessary hydration to keep your skin's oil-water levels balanced, helping to control shine in the long run.

This moisturising cream is designed to be a supportive final step in most skincare routines.

• ✅ Works Well With:
  • Hydrators: Hyaluronic Acid, Snail Mucin, and Beta-Glucan. Apply them before this cream to maximise hydration.
  • Actives: Vitamin C (AM), Niacinamide, Retinoids (PM), and gentle exfoliants (AHAs/BHAs on alternate nights). This cream is excellent for buffering potential irritation from strong actives.
  • Sunscreens: Layers well under most sunscreens without pilling, providing a hydrated base.
• ⚠️ Use With Caution:
  • Facial Oils: Apply facial oils *after* this cream has fully absorbed. Applying oil before may hinder the cream's absorption.

• 💧 Dry & Dehydrated Skin: Excellent. Provides deep, lasting moisture and helps repair the lipid barrier to prevent water loss.
• ↔️ Combination Skin: Very good. Can be used all over, or concentrated on drier cheek areas while using a lighter gel on the T-zone if needed.
• ⏳ Mature Skin: Excellent. Helps to plump dehydration-related fine lines and supports skin elasticity and firmness.
• 😊 Sensitive Skin: Very good. The formula is focused on hydration and repair, making it suitable for skin that is easily irritated or has a compromised barrier.
• ✨ Normal Skin: Good. A reliable daily moisturiser, especially for nighttime or during drier winter months in Mauritius.
• ❗ Oily & Acne-Prone Skin: Use with caution. While hydrating, its creamy texture might feel too rich for very oily skin types, especially during humid summer days. It may be better suited as a night cream. Patch testing is recommended.

• Dehydration & Dryness: Delivers intense moisture to relieve tightness, flakiness, and a parched feeling.
• Compromised Skin Barrier: Helps to repair and strengthen the skin's protective barrier, making it more resilient against environmental stressors.
• Fine Lines & Wrinkles: Plumps the skin with hydration, visibly softening the appearance of fine lines caused by dryness.
• Dullness & Lack of Vitality: Restores moisture and supports skin regeneration for a healthier, more vibrant complexion.
• Loss of Firmness & Elasticity: Supports the skin's structure for a bouncier, more youthful feel.

Pregnancy & Breastfeeding: This formula contains ingredients generally considered safe for use during pregnancy and breastfeeding. However, it is always best to consult with your doctor before introducing new skincare products during this time.

• Texture: A rich, plush cream with a smooth, almost gel-like slip. It feels substantial but not heavy or greasy.
• Finish: Absorbs well, leaving a hydrated, comfortable finish with a soft, healthy-looking glow. It does not feel sticky or oily.
• pH: Not publicly disclosed by the brand, but expected to be in the skin-friendly range of pH 5.0 - 6.5.
• Fungal Acne (Malassezia) Suitability: Contains Sorbitan Oleate, which can be a potential trigger for some individuals prone to fungal acne. Patch testing on an affected area is advised.

• Issue: The cream feels a bit heavy for my skin.
  Solution: You might be using too much. Reduce the amount to less than a pea-size. You can also reserve it for your nighttime routine only, or for days when your skin feels particularly dry.
• Issue: My skin doesn't feel hydrated enough.
  Solution: Ensure you are applying the cream to slightly damp skin to lock in moisture. For very dry skin, layer it over a watery hydrating toner or essence first.
• Issue: The product is pilling (rolling up into little balls).
  Solution: Pilling usually happens from applying too much product or not waiting long enough between layers. Use a smaller amount and wait at least 1-2 minutes for your serum to absorb before applying this cream.

• For Humid Summers: This cream can serve as an excellent night cream for most skin types to repair daytime sun exposure and moisture loss. For very oily skin, it might feel rich; consider using it only on drier areas or after a day at the beach.
• For Drier Winters: An ideal daily moisturiser for both AM and PM to combat the drier air and prevent dehydration.
• For Air-Conditioned Environments: If you spend long hours in A/C, this cream is perfect for preventing the extreme dryness and tightness that conditioned air can cause. Use it in the morning before sunscreen to create a protective moisture barrier.

Is PDRN from fish safe for skincare?

Yes. The PDRN used in cosmetics is highly purified to be compatible with human skin. It functions as a skin conditioning agent that supports regeneration and has a long history of use in clinical settings for tissue repair.

Can I use this cream if I have oily skin?

While it's designed for intense moisture, you can still use it. For oily skin, we recommend using it as a night cream or only on days your skin feels dehydrated. Start with a very small amount and see how your skin responds.

What is the difference between this and a regular Hyaluronic Acid cream?
