Ceramide Gel Moisturiser with Encapsulation Technology + Maca Root Peptides

Most ceramide moisturisers are heavy creams. This one is a gel. It cools the second it touches your skin, sinks in with no film and no shine, and leaves nothing for your SPF or makeup to fight with. Ceramide comfort, without the cream.

At the heart of the formula are Ceramide NP and upcycled maca root peptides, sealed inside tiny lipid parcels rather than stirred loose into the gel. That's encapsulation technology: it shields them from light and oxidation, and delivers them with intention rather than at random. It's the reason a gel this light can carry ingredients this rich.

Underneath, nine water-loving ingredients hold hydration in three different ways. Glycerin draws water into the surface. Saccharide isomerate binds to the skin so hydration stays put instead of evaporating off. Upcycled myo-inositol helps skin cells manage their own water balance from within, and upcycled bilberry seed oil brings the softness a plain gel can't.

The cooling isn't menthol and it isn't a fragrance. It comes from an odourless ingredient that speaks to TRPM8, the receptor in your skin that senses coolness. No sting, no minty smell, nothing to bother reactive skin. Fragrance-free, but you'll still feel it.

Made for skin that changes. Designed with mature and hormonally fluctuating skin in mind: skin that runs warm, flushes easily, feels tight one day and can't bear anything rich the next. Whether you're navigating menopause or perimenopause, or your skin is simply oily, combination or different every week, this is the lightest way to wear ceramides.

Inspiring, upcycling, uplifting: three ingredients in this bottle have already had a first life. Bilberry seeds are rescued after the berries are used for their deep purple colour, myo-inositol is recovered from a sugar-production side stream, and maca root arrives via the food industry. Three ingredients, two lives.
