What does it do for you?

Bring some much-needed balance back to your skin with our new and improved Seaweed Oil-Control Gel Cream.  

 The formula you love is back, better, and ready to give oily and combination skin some TLC. Our lightweight gel-cream isn’t just fast-absorbing (no sticky residue here) but works hard to keep shine at bay and restore vital hydration to skin for 48 hours.

Now enriched with 96% natural-origin ingredients, our gel cream is powered by two new actives: royal sugar kelp from Brittany, France and a plant-derived prebiotic. Our sustainably sourced* royal sugar kelp helps to balance oiliness and dryness by regulating sebum levels, while our prebiotic manages the good and bad bacteria on the skin’s surface. The result? A happy, healthy and hydrated complexion. But it’s not all changed around here, we’re sticking with the signature fragrance you know and love.

Our packaging has had an update too. Your favourite moisturiser now comes in a 100% recycled glass jar that’s topped with an aluminium lid – perfect for reusing or recycling**, what’s not to love?

* We’ve always been fans of seaweed and its skin-loving benefits. But it’s not just good for your fabulous face. Did you know, our seaweed active, royal sugar kelp is sustainably sourced from Brittany, France, using wild-harvesting and low extraction methods? In other words, it’s a renewable resource that’s also beneficial to our precious ocean ecosystems.

Reviews

Cool, light and doesn't make me break out

"I decided to give this a try because I've tried everything else in the drugstore and everything feels too heavy all my face. Not to mention the fact that I can easily suffer from adult acne if the incorrect moisturizers put on my face. The sales clerk kindly gave me a sampler so that I could try and make sure that I didn't break out before purchasing the full product. I like how it smells and how it feels. So far, I have been lucky as it is controlling my combination skin without making me break out."
