First up, Very Useful Face Cream. Our deeply nourishing facial cream that hydrates, softens, and soothes even the driest skin. This is a rich moisturiser that defends your face against dehydration, and smells pretty alright too. Formulated with a blend of powerful antioxidants, CoQ10, and the dazzling amla berry, as well as shea and mango butters, Very Useful Face Cream delivers an immediate relief from dryness for thoroughly supple, smooth, and shielded skin.
Next, Very Luxe Face Cream. This is our deeply replenishing moisturiser designed to make your skin feel firmer, smoother, plumper—with the receipts to prove it. Featuring unique ingredients like Australian kangaroo paw flower which is proven to rapidly decrease the appearance of wrinkles for smoother skin, and pink algae which helps reduce redness, roughness and pigmentation.
Finally, Very Lightweight Moisturiser—our oil-free, gel-cream dreamboat. Perfect for oily, combination, breakout-prone, and teen skin, this fast-absorbing and airy gel-cream is no lightweight (sorry) when it comes to ingredients: Ceramides reduce moisture loss and minimise the signs of dryness and dehydration, and provitamin B5 calms and soothes.

Benefits of Using a Face Moisturiser
Hydration
Moisturiser can help replenish your skin’s water content and prevent moisture loss, keeping it plump and radiant. In our Go-To formulas, we opt for ingredients like shea butter, squalane, and glycerin to both improve hydration and lock it in without feeling heavy or Too Much.
Protection
Daily moisturising shields your skin from harsh environmental stressors like pollution, air conditioning, and bad energy (no). This helps protect your skin barrier and reduces irritation or sensitivity.
Skin Texture
Regular use of a facial moisturiser leads to smoother, softer skin by reducing flakiness and improving elasticity. Your makeup will glide on better! Your skin will look better! Your skin will feel better!
Prevention
Hydrated skin is happy skin. Consistent use of a face cream helps prevent dryness as well as signs of ageing. Keeping your skin hydrated will help keep your complexion plump and juicy.
Supports Everything Else
Skincare just works better on hydrated skin. The added moisturise helps products penetrate more deeply and effectively. Plus! Hydrated skin cells are actually known to function better than dry, cranky, dehydrated cells. This means they’re better equipped to process and respond to your other skincare products more efficiently.
FAQs
How does moisturiser work?
A moisturiser works by creating a lightweight barrier on the skin’s surface to lock in moisture and protect against dehydration. Our moisturisers include a combination of humectants (to attract water), emollients (to smooth), and occlusives (to seal). This trio works together to nourish your skin and replenish your skin barrier.
How much moisturiser should I use on my face?
A pea-sized amount is usually enough for most people. But! You might want to adjust the amount based on your skin type and the season—lighter layers in warmer months, and a rich facial cream in cooler weather.
