*Self-assessed by Adilsons based on available ingredient data (no ethanol/denat.; no haram animal-derived ingredients detected). / *Brand-stated; not certified by an independent body.
A bouncy, gel-cream moisturiser that floods the skin with hydration, leaving it feeling plump, soft, and dewy. Formulated with ultra-fine Super Collagen™ water, it absorbs quickly to combat dryness and improve skin elasticity, making it an ideal daily hydrator for skin facing the Mauritian climate, especially in air-conditioned environments.
At-a-Glance (30s) (who it's for, what to expect)
If your skin feels tight, looks dull, or struggles to stay hydrated throughout the day, this cream provides an instant and lasting moisture boost.
- Skin Type: Best for Normal, Dry, Combination, and Dehydrated skin. May be too rich for very oily types in humid weather.
- Texture: A soft, bouncy gel-cream that feels refreshing and absorbs without greasiness.
- Key Benefit: Deeply moisturises, plumps the skin to reduce the look of fine dehydration lines, and creates a smooth, dewy canvas. (Brand claim—no public dataset available for independent verification.)
Quick Start (60-second routine) (essentials for beginners)
- Cleanser: Start with a clean face.
- THIS PRODUCT (Moistfull Collagen Cream): Apply a pea-sized amount to your face and neck.
- Sunscreen (AM only): Finish with SPF 30+ to protect your hydrated skin.
Note: Already own a moisturiser? Finish that first to avoid waste. This cream can substitute any standard moisturiser.
AM Routine Guide (morning order) (how to use in the morning)
Minimalist Routine (3 steps):
- Cleanser: Wash your face.
- Moistfull Collagen Cream: Apply a pea-sized amount to lock in moisture.
- Sunscreen: Apply a broad-spectrum SPF 30 or higher.
Optional Additions:
- A hydrating toner or essence before the cream can boost moisture.
- A Vitamin C serum before the cream can help with brightening and antioxidant protection.
Wait times: Allow 1-2 minutes for the cream to absorb before applying sunscreen to prevent pilling.
PM Routine Guide (evening order) (recommended for starting)
Minimalist Routine (3 steps):
- Cleanser: Double cleanse if you wore makeup or water-resistant sunscreen (oil cleanser, then a water-based foam/gel).
- Targeted Serum (Optional): Apply any treatment serum (e.g., for hydration, brightening).
- Moistfull Collagen Cream: Apply a pea-sized amount as the final step to seal in all your skincare and hydrate overnight.
Texture Rule: Always apply products from the thinnest consistency (like a toner) to the thickest (this cream).
How to Use (Beginner-friendly) (amount, frequency, and tips)
- Amount: A pea-sized amount for the face. Add a little extra for the neck.
- Frequency: Use daily, both morning (before sunscreen) and evening (as your last step).
- Method: Scoop a small amount and gently smooth over the face and neck. Pat lightly to help absorption.
If-This / Then-That:
- If your skin is very dry: Apply it over a hydrating toner or serum while your skin is still slightly damp to lock in extra moisture.
- If you have combination skin: You might need a slightly smaller amount on your T-zone and a normal amount on your cheeks.
- If you're in a humid climate: A little goes a long way. Start with a smaller amount and add more only if needed.
- Under makeup: Its smooth texture makes it a great moisturising primer. Wait 1-2 minutes for it to set before applying foundation to avoid pilling.
Safety: Avoid direct contact with eyes. For external use only. Discontinue use if irritation occurs.
What to Expect (Results Timeline) (immediate → 8+ weeks)
- Immediately: Skin feels instantly hydrated, soothed, and soft. Dry tightness is relieved.
- 2-4 Weeks: With consistent use, skin appears plumper and dewier. The skin barrier feels stronger and less prone to dehydration during the day.
- 4-8+ Weeks: The appearance of fine lines caused by dehydration may be visibly reduced. Skin texture feels smoother and more supple.
*Individual results may vary. Consistent use, especially with daily sun protection, is key.
Myth Replacement (Why this, not that) (safer, effective alternatives)
Myth: "Oily and combination skin don't need moisturiser, especially in a humid place like Mauritius."
Truth: Dehydrated skin can overproduce oil to compensate, making you even shinier. Using a lightweight, non-greasy moisturiser like this one (in an appropriate amount) helps balance the skin's water levels, which can lead to less excess oil production over time.
Skin Type Compatibility (best fits and cautions)
- Excellent for: Dry, Dehydrated, Normal, and Mature skin types that need a reliable boost of moisture.
- Good for: Combination skin, especially on drier areas or during less humid months.
- Use with Caution: Very oily and acne-prone skin types may find it a bit rich for daytime use in peak Mauritian humidity. A patch test is recommended.
Targeted Concerns (what it helps to solve)
- Dehydration and skin tightness
- Dullness and lack of glow
- Fine lines caused by dryness
- Rough or flaky skin texture
- Loss of plumpness and bounce

Full Safety & Patch Test Protocol (important precautions)
Who should use with caution: Individuals with very oily, clog-prone skin should introduce this cream carefully, especially during humid summer months.
Patch Test Protocol: Before first use, apply a pea-sized amount to a small, clean area of skin, such as behind your ear or on your inner jawline. Wait 24-48 hours to check for any signs of redness, itching, or irritation. If your skin reacts, do not use the product.

Sensory & Chemical Profile (texture, feel, and formulation)
- Texture: A bouncy, pudding-like gel-cream. It feels substantial but spreads easily without being heavy.

- Scent: A light, fresh, clean fragrance.
- Fungal Acne (Malassezia) Compatibility: Contains Glyceryl Stearate and Sorbitan Isostearate, which may be potential triggers for those with fungal acne. Patch testing is highly recommended if you are prone to this condition.
Climate Fit for Mauritius (local usage advice)
- Humid Summer: This cream works well as a night-time moisturiser. For daytime, combination and oily skin types might find it sufficient to use a very small amount or switch to a lighter gel. Dry skin types will likely enjoy its hydrating feel year-round.
- Drier Winter / Air-Conditioning: An excellent choice for both day and night. It provides the perfect amount of moisture to combat the drying effects of indoor air-conditioning without feeling heavy.

Genuine Community Experiences (unbiased, real-user feedback)
Note: These are aggregated sentiments from online communities and do not reflect the views of Adilsons. Individual results may vary.
- Positive Feedback: Many users with dry and combination skin praise this cream as a "holy grail" for hydration. A Reddit reviewer (2021) mentioned, "The texture is creamy and leaves my skin so soft. The scent is light and pleasant." Another user on Hwahae (2024) with dry skin noted it is "wonderfully hydrating, leaving the skin feeling moisturized and smooth."
- For Oily Skin: Feedback is mixed. One Reddit user with oily skin found the gel-cream version ("blue jar") more suitable. A Hwahae reviewer with oily skin noted it was a "reliable option that doesn't cause any major blemishes" but also found the jar packaging inconvenient.
- Fair Caveat: Some users, particularly those with very dry skin, feel it acts more as an occlusive to seal in moisture rather than providing deep hydration on its own. A Reddit user mentioned it "seals in whatever moisturizing products you've already used" but may not be enough on its own for very dry skin.
