MooGoo | Ultra Hydrating Face Cream

Tired of tired-looking skin? While nothing beats drinking lots of water and good ol’ fashioned R&R (we don’t get nearly enough of those), this cream of the crop comes pretty darn close. Dry skin is one of the main causes for the signs of ageing to show up before their time – although showing up never would be great – and can make us look a lot older than we’re feeling. Think of your skin like a fresh grape. When it’s full of water and moisture, it’s plump, juicy and smooth(er). When your skin is dry, thirsty and parched, it loses volume and it’s a bit more like a raisin with lines and wrinkles.

Designed with dependable ingredients to ditch dryness, dullness and dehydration. We use highly nourishing Aloe Vera blended with 5 natural, soothing oils rich with fatty acids for hyper hydration, skin regeneration and protection from daily damage. The oils we use are selected because they’re lightweight, non-comedogenic, highly absorbent and perfect for all skin types, including the most MOO-diest. We added doses of Hyaluronic Acid and Niacinamide to revive, refresh, renew and replenish (that’s a lot of R’s) skin, and help retain (oops, one more) as much moisture as possible. With all that going on, we still saved room for some Ceramides. Just in case your life has been influencer and social media-free for the last 12 months and you don’t know what Ceramides are, here is a quick explanation. Ceramides are fats (lipids) that exist in high concentrations in the skin and help hold it together. They assist in preventing water loss and protecting the skin barrier from irritants. Over time, things like sun damage, environmental factors and natural ageing can deplete Ceramide levels in the skin, weakening the skin barrier which causes skin to become drier more easily and that’s when the sneaky signs of ageing start showing up. Topping up Ceramide levels rebuilds skin strength which helps keep more moisture in and smooths out those finicky fine lines.

So, we made this cream with moisture in mind, by providing it and retaining it, which in our opinion is your best defence against ageing. A lovely, light cream that slides on like silk and sits well under makeup (if you’re into that kind of thing) to provide a dewy base. Free from SPF for the days you don’t need it and a big glass of water to quench thirsty skin after exposure to air conditioning or space heaters that can suck your skin dry. No matter what your age in calendar years, or how many smile lines you have to show, part of taking good care of your skin means keeping it moisturised, so that’s why we herded all the hydration heavy hitters into this one crafty cream.

What percentage of Niacinamide is in this formula?

We include 3% Niacinamide in our formula because we love its many benefits. Niacinamide is great for so many things like the ability to decrease water loss from the skin, soothe inflammation, ease redness and reduce the appearance of pores, just to name a few!

My cream isn't white. Does this mean it has gone bad?

You may notice that your cream isn’t bright white or changes colour slightly over time. This is because we use natural ingredients which are often rich in colour and can change the colour of a cream after it's mixed in. Although people generally expect a cream to always be white, we choose not to use any bleaching ingredients to keep them white. So, don’t be surprised if your cream changes colour over time, it's not a bad thing and is perfectly fine to use (always check expiry dates)! The colour of your cream may also vary slightly from tube to tube, or bottle to bottle..

Why is there a hole under my 75g moisturiser bottle?

Our 75g pump top bottles are airless pumps which means they do not have a straw to supply the product to the pump top. Instead, there is a disc inside the bottle that pushes the product upwards to the top with every pump. The hole on the bottom allows air in so the disc can continue to move up as the product is dispensed, which is not possible without the hole on the bottom of the bottle.
