Highly rated by customers for: Skin Feel, Skin Appearance, Product Texture

An active-enriched, lightweight yet deeply nourishing moisturizer with all-day comfort for dry, easily dehydrated skin that prefers an emollient, radiant finish, compared to the cushioned satin finish of the Hydra-Cream. Formulated with 30% less water than traditional creams, and contains over 4X the amount of actives (46% total formula concentration). This deeply absorbing cream provides all-day comfort while retaining a glowy nongreasy, skin-like feel.

Independent clinical studies showed statistically significant improvements in barrier function, barrier repair, density, hydration, hyperpigmentation, and global fine lines and wrinkles. Improvements are seen within 4-6 weeks of consistent use.

Features & Benefits

+ 3% Matrikynes® ECM polypeptides to help build collagen

Directions For Use

Apply to clean skin, day and/or night – face, neck, décolleté, and earlobes. For maximum repair and emolliency for extra dry, dehydrated skin, infuse the cream with our active-enriched Reparative Oil-Serum Infusion. Store in a cool dry place away from direct sunlight.

The Healing is Real

Extracted from the extracellular matrix of upcycled bone, these naturally-derived peptides have superior bioavailability compared to artificial/synthetic, and are clinically proven to support tissue regeneration by reducing inflammation, oxidation, and skin damage.

The Evidence Learn more

More Room for Actives

We’ve carefully created a formula that has 30% less water and 4.5x more actives than traditional creams to make more room for ingredients that will make a difference. All of our actives are at functional concentrations, so you know you’re getting the best bang for your buck.

VS


All Our Ingredients Are Stars

Formulated to deliver all actives at optimal functional levels within a 44% water & 10% emulsifier emulsion

3% Matrikynes® + 5% Industry Peptides

Our proprietary matrix-derived peptides, plus industry-favorite peptides, to increase collagen and elastin density

2% THD Ascorbate

Stable, oil-soluble form of vitamin C that brightens and increases collagen synthesis

3% Ceramide, Phytosphingosine, Cholesterol Blend

Enhances and restores skin barrier by locking in moisture

1% Amino Acid Blend

For visibly stronger skin

Nourishing Organic Lipids and Emollients

Shea butter, rice extract, sea buckthorn seed oil, jojoba seed oil

Organic Anti-Inflammatories and Antioxidant Skin Superfoods

Botanical oils (rosehip, pomegranate, kadaku plum, raspberry, cranberry), botanical extracts (green tea, cranberry, blueberry, blackberry, raspberry, elderberry, apple, açaí, amla), enzymatic: alpha-lipoic acid, CoQ10/ubiquinone, resveratrol


Natural vs. Artificial Peptides

Current peptides on the market are synthetic, limiting their bioavailability to our skin. Matrikynes® are naturally derived from upcycled bone, allowing for dramatic dermal bioactivity.

Pesticide Free

All botanical oils and extracts used are pesticide-free and smartly preserved to help avoid degradation of the skin’s microbiome. Each lot tested for microbiome-destroying pesticides.

Cruelty Free

We use already-available safety data to avoid testing our ingredients or formulas on animals.

Better For Our Environment

Housed in airless glass to avoid preservative overloading, reduce chemical leeching, and circumvent plastic waste.
