Dealing with skin that feels tired, sensitive, or is showing the first signs of fine lines from sun and stress? This lightweight cream offers a concentrated blend of soothing and firming ingredients to repair your skin barrier and improve elasticity without feeling heavy in the Mauritian climate.
At-a-Glance (30s) (who it's for, what to expect)
- Who it's for: Suitable for all skin types, especially those with sensitive, combination, or aging-concerned skin who want to improve firmness and repair damage.
- What it does: Strengthens the skin barrier, soothes irritation with Centella Asiatica, and improves the appearance of fine lines and elasticity with a 5-Peptide Complex.
- Texture & Scent: A soft, whipped cream that melts into the skin. It is fragrance-free with no noticeable scent.
- Key Benefits: Reduces redness, boosts elasticity, deeply nourishes, and helps smooth fine lines.
Quick Start (60-second routine) (essentials for beginners)
- Cleanser โ Wash your face with a gentle cleanser.
- THIS PRODUCT โ Apply a pea-sized amount to your face and neck.
- Sunscreen (AM) / Moisturiser (PM) โ This cream serves as your moisturiser. Follow with sunscreen in the morning.
Note: Already own a similar cream? Finish that first to avoid waste (substitute, donโt stack).
AM Routine Guide (morning order) (how to use in the morning)
Minimalist (3-4 steps):
- Cleanser: Start with a gentle face wash.
- Hydrating Toner/Essence (Optional): Adds a layer of hydration and helps subsequent products absorb better.
- THIS PRODUCT: Apply a pea-sized amount as your daily moisturiser.
- Sunscreen SPF 30+: The most crucial step to protect your skin and the results of the peptides.
Wait times: Allow 30โ60 seconds between watery layers and 1โ2 minutes after this cream before applying sunscreen to prevent pilling.
PM Routine Guide (evening order) (recommended for starting)
Minimalist (3 steps):
- Cleanser: Double-cleanse if you wore makeup or water-resistant sunscreen (use an oil cleanser, then a water-based cleanser).
- THIS PRODUCT: Apply a pea-sized amount as your night cream to repair skin overnight.
- (Optional) Facial Oil: If your skin is very dry, you can lock everything in with a few drops of a non-comedogenic facial oil.
Optional Additions: You can use a targeted serum (like a retinoid or exfoliant) before this cream, but be sure to alternate actives. See the Weekly Planner for guidance.
How to Use (Beginner-friendly) (amount, frequency, and tips)
Daily Use โ AM/PM:
- Amount: A pea-size amount for the face; add a little more for the neck.
- Apply to: Face and neck, avoiding the immediate eye area.
- Method: Gently spread across the skin and lightly tap to aid absorption.
- Frequency: Can be used once or twice daily. Start with PM use if you have very oily skin, and increase to AM and PM if needed.
If-This / Then-That:
- Very oily T-zone? Use a thinner layer in the morning. Your sunscreen might provide enough moisture for the day.
- Dry from air-con? Apply a slightly more generous layer at night. Consider layering it over a hydrating toner.
- Under makeup? Wait 1-2 minutes for the cream to fully absorb before applying SPF and primer. This helps prevent pilling.
- Using strong actives? This cream is excellent to use after a retinoid or on nights off from chemical exfoliants to support your skin barrier.
Safety: Avoid applying to broken or irritated skin. Stop use if a rash or burning sensation occurs. For teens, focus on a basic routine of cleanser, moisturiser, and SPF; advanced peptides are not typically necessary unless addressing specific concerns under guidance.
Weekly Planner (Example & Alternating Actives) (how to schedule use)
This cream is a gentle, daily-use product focused on repair and hydration. Hereโs how to fit it in with other active ingredients:
- As a Daily Moisturiser (if you don't use other strong actives): Use AM and PM every day as the final step before sunscreen.
-
When Alternating with Actives (Example PM Routine):
- Mon: Retinoid (then this cream after)
- Tue: THIS PRODUCT (Soothing/Repair Night)
- Wed: Exfoliant (AHA/BHA) (then this cream after)
- Thu: Retinoid (then this cream after)
- Fri: THIS PRODUCT (Soothing/Repair Night)
- Sat: THIS PRODUCT (Soothing/Repair Night)
- Sun: Retinoid (then this cream after)
Rule of Thumb: Use only one strong active (retinoid or exfoliant) per night. This cream is perfect for "off nights" to help your skin recover and build resilience.
What to Expect (Results Timeline) (immediate โ 8+ weeks)
- Immediately: Skin feels soothed, hydrated, and soft with a non-greasy finish. Any immediate redness may appear calmer.
- 2โ4 weeks: Skin barrier feels stronger. You may notice less sensitivity and improved hydration levels throughout the day. Skin texture begins to feel smoother.
-
4โ8+ weeks: With consistent use, the appearance of fine lines may be softened. Skin should feel firmer and more elastic. The brand's clinical test on a similar formula showed a 29.46% reduction in the appearance of wrinkles after 1 month.
Brand claimโno public dataset available for independent verification.
Myth Replacement (Why this, not that) (safer, effective alternatives)
- Why use a peptide & cica cream, not a harsh physical scrub for anti-aging? Harsh scrubs can cause micro-tears and inflammation, which accelerates aging and can lead to dark spots (PIH). This cream strengthens the skin's foundation with peptides and calms inflammation with Centella, promoting healthier, more resilient skin without causing damage.
Compatibility Guide (layering) (what to pair it with)
- โ Works Well With: Niacinamide, Hyaluronic Acid, Vitamin C, Sunscreen, and most hydrating ingredients. It's an excellent buffer for retinoids (apply after your retinoid has absorbed).
- โ ๏ธ Use Carefully With: Strong, low-pH chemical exfoliants (like high-concentration glycolic acid). If you apply this cream immediately after, you might feel a slight tingle. It's best to wait 5-10 minutes after applying acids before using this cream to allow your skin's pH to normalize.
- โ Avoid On: Do not apply to broken or freshly wounded skin.
Skin Type Compatibility (best fits and cautions)
- Oily/Combination: Excellent as a night cream. May be too rich for daytime use in peak humidity, unless your skin is dehydrated.
- Normal/Dry: A perfect daily moisturiser for both AM and PM. Provides lasting hydration without feeling heavy.
- Sensitive/Acne-Prone: Very suitable. The Centella complex soothes irritation, and the formula is free of common irritants like artificial fragrance and drying alcohol. Its barrier-strengthening properties help reduce sensitivity over time.
Targeted Concerns (what it helps to solve)
- Fine lines and wrinkles
- Loss of firmness and elasticity
- Damaged or sensitive skin barrier
- Redness and irritation
- Dehydration

Full Safety & Patch Test Protocol (important precautions)
Who should use this: Ideal for individuals looking to address early signs of aging, improve skin firmness, and strengthen a sensitive or compromised skin barrier.
Who should use with caution: While formulated for sensitive skin, those with known allergies to specific botanical extracts should review the ingredient list.
Pregnancy & Breastfeeding: Contains peptides and botanical extracts generally considered safe for topical use. However, as there is insufficient published data on some specific peptide combinations during pregnancy, we recommend consulting with a clinician before use.
Patch Test Protocol:
- Apply a pea-sized amount to a clean, small area of skin, such as your inner arm or behind your ear.
- Wait 24 hours to observe for any signs of redness, itching, or irritation.
- If no reaction occurs, repeat the test for a second day.

- Texture: A soft, whipped cream that feels substantial yet lightweight.
- Finish: Spreads easily and absorbs without a greasy or sticky residue, leaving a soft, hydrated finish.
- pH: Not publicly disclosed by the brand.
- Fungal Acne (Malassezia) Compatibility: Contains some ingredients like Glyceryl Stearate and Shea Butter which may be potential triggers for those with severe fungal acne. Individual responses may vary; patch testing is advised.
Troubleshooting Guide (fix common issues) (quick solutions)
-
Issue: Pilling under makeup or sunscreen.
Fix: You may be using too much product or not waiting long enough. Use a smaller, pea-sized amount and wait a full 1-2 minutes for it to absorb before applying your next layer. -
Issue: Skin feels a bit too dewy/oily after application.
Fix: This cream is nourishing. Try using it only in your PM routine, or use a smaller amount in the AM. In Mauritius' humidity, it might be best as a night cream for oily skin types. -
Issue: Not seeing results for fine lines after 2 weeks.
Fix: Peptides and collagen-supporting ingredients work on a cellular level. Visible results for skin firmness and fine lines typically take at least 4-8 weeks of consistent, twice-daily use. Ensure you are also using sunscreen daily to prevent new damage.
Climate Fit for Mauritius (local usage advice)
- Humid Summer: For oily and combination skin, this works best as a night cream. For dry skin, it can be a comfortable day and night moisturiser. Its ability to soothe and repair is excellent for skin stressed by sun exposure.
- Drier Winter/Indoors (AC): An excellent choice for all skin types, day and night. The formula provides ample moisture to combat the drying effects of air conditioning without feeling heavy.

Frequently Asked Questions (your questions, answered)
Can I use this cream if I have acne?
Yes, it's a great option. Its Centella complex is anti-inflammatory and can help soothe breakouts, while the peptides work to repair the skin. It's also non-comedogenic for most people.
Is this cream heavy enough for very dry skin?
It provides good nourishment, but if your skin is extremely dry, you might want to layer a facial oil on top at night or choose a richer alternative like the Dr.Althea 345 Relief Cream.
Can I use this with Vitamin C or Retinol?
Yes. It pairs beautifully. Use your Vitamin C serum in the morning before this cream. At night, apply your retinol serum first, let it absorb for a few minutes, and then apply this cream on top to moisturise and buffer any potential irritation.
