Repairs Skin Barrier & Locks in Moisture ā Lightweight & Non-Greasy
A lightweight 10% Ceramide moisturiser that rebuilds the skin barrier and locks in moisture after active ingredient use. Non-comedogenic and suitable for all skin types including oily ā essential as the final evening step.
"No greasy feeling at all. My skin stays hydrated and comfortable all day." ā Huma
Skin Type: Dry, dehydrated, sensitive or barrier-compromised skin. Best suited to those who find lighter gel moisturisers insufficient.
Targets: Dryness, flakiness, tightness, and deeper barrier repair needs ā particularly during winter months or in air-conditioned environments.
Suited to: Ages 16+.
Cream vs Gel: This richer, more occlusive cream is best for dry skin and stronger overnight barrier repair. If your skin is oily or combination, the Ceramide Gel Moisturiser offers the same core actives in a lighter, faster-absorbing texture.
Consult your doctor before use if: you are pregnant or breastfeeding, as a general precaution.
SkinFactor's 10% Ceramide Cream Moisturiser is the richer, more occlusive counterpart to our Ceramide Gel Moisturiser ā built for dry, dehydrated skin and for anyone who needs deeper overnight barrier repair than a lightweight gel can provide. Alongside Ceramide NP, this formula delivers Hyaluronic Acid, Niacinamide, Snail Secretion Filtrate, Centella Asiatica, Aloe Vera and Green Tea Extract in a cream base that sits on the skin longer, sealing in moisture and actives more completely.
Why a cream base for dry skin:
A cream formula's higher oil content creates a stronger occlusive layer than a gel ā slowing water loss from the skin surface more effectively overnight. For genuinely dry, flaky or tight skin, or for anyone using multiple active ingredients that stress the barrier (Retinol, Salicylic Acid, Glycolic Acid), this heavier texture provides the sustained barrier support that a lighter gel formula isn't designed to deliver.
Why five supporting actives beyond Ceramide:
Ceramide NP rebuilds the lipid structure that holds skin cells together. Hyaluronic Acid draws additional water into the skin for plump hydration. Niacinamide strengthens the barrier further while supporting even tone. Snail Secretion Filtrate supports skin repair and recovery, particularly valuable for compromised or reactive skin. Centella Asiatica and Green Tea Extract calm inflammation and provide antioxidant protection, while Aloe Vera adds an additional layer of soothing hydration.
Built for Pakistani skin conditions:
Pakistan's hard water, air conditioning and heat all accelerate barrier breakdown and moisture loss ā and dry or dehydrated skin types feel this most acutely. A genuinely occlusive cream, rather than a lightweight lotion, is often the difference between managing dryness and actually resolving it.
Cream or Gel ā which one do you need:
Choose this Cream Moisturiser if your skin is dry, tight, flaky, or you need stronger overnight barrier repair ā particularly in Pakistan's dry winter months or in heavily air-conditioned environments. Choose the Ceramide Gel Moisturiser if your skin is oily, combination, or you prefer a lighter, faster-absorbing daytime texture. Both share the same core barrier-repair actives ā the difference is texture and occlusion level, matched to what your skin actually needs.
As part of a complete routine:
Use as the final step of your evening routine, after any treatment serum ā particularly valuable after Retinol or Salicylic Acid Serum, where the richer texture provides stronger barrier support through the night.
Who it is for:
Dry, dehydrated, sensitive or barrier-compromised skin, and anyone using active ingredients who needs stronger overnight repair than a lightweight gel provides. Suitable from age 16 and above.
STEP 1
Cleanse and apply any treatment serum first ā this cream is always the final step, sealing in whatever treatment came before it.
STEP 2
Take a generous amount and massage into face and neck until absorbed. This is a richer texture than a gel ā a little more product than you'd use with a lighter moisturiser is appropriate for dry skin.
STEP 3
In the morning, finish with SPF 50 Sunscreen.
When to Use: Morning and evening, though many with dry skin find this cream most valuable as the evening step, when deeper overnight repair matters most.
Especially valuable after:
Common mistake to avoid: Using a lightweight gel moisturiser when your skin is genuinely dry or flaking. A gel's lower occlusion level often isn't enough to resolve real dryness ā this cream's richer texture is built specifically for that gap.
A richer, more occlusive formula built specifically for dry and barrier-compromised skin that needs stronger overnight repair.
The richer texture provides stronger occlusion than a lightweight gel.
Consistent nightly use rebuilds compromised skin.
Snail Secretion Filtrate and Centella support recovery.
