Why is this different?
The NMF complex is a mixture of amino acids and other derivatives that sustain hydration in the stratum corneum (uppermost layer of skin). Acting as a non-comedogenic moisturiser (humectant mixture), it retains moisture while strengthening the skin barrier. The amount of NMF in the Stratum corneum determines how much water it can hold at a particular humidity level. Panthenol, a non-oily skin hydrator, prevents transepidermal water loss & also soothes skin and works well for oily/acne-prone skin.
Our oil free face moisturiser for oily skin is uniquely designed to provide hydration without making the skin greasy. Here’s why it stands out:
- Non-greasy & Lightweight: Unlike traditional creams, this formula absorbs quickly without leaving a sticky residue.
- Deep Moisturisation: Contains amino acids from the skin’s Natural Moisturizing Factor (NMF) that nourish the stratum corneum and provide deep hydration.
- Non-Comedogenic Formula: Won’t clog pores, making it the best face moisturiser for oily skin and acne-prone skin.
- Soothing & Repairing: Panthenol calms irritation and supports skin healing.
- Fragrance-Free & Dermatologist-Tested: Suitable even for sensitive skin types.
- Long-Lasting Hydration: Provides 72-hour moisture without a greasy feel.
Why is this beginner friendly?
OIL CONTROL FACE WASH
- 0.5% Salicylic acid: Effectively cleanses the skin without causing irritation or redness.
- Moisturizing: 1% Niacinamide reduces redness and moisturizes the skin.
CLEARING SERUM
- 2% Alpha Arbutin: Alpha arbutin boosts the efficacy of Niacinamide for effective results.
- Optimum Niacinamide Concentration: 5% niacinamide targets uneven skin tone, dark spots & pigmentation without irritating.
- Hydrating: Sodium PCA present in this serum soothes and hydrates skin.
How Does it Work on the Skin?
OIL CONTROL FACE WASH
- 0.5% Salicylic acid is a lipophilic acid that can easily penetrate through the skin and unclog the pores. This helps to control oil, clear pores off of excess sebum, dirt & dead cells and exfoliate the top layer of the skin revealing softer, more even skin and hence improving skin texture.
- 1% Niacinamide improves skin’s texture, controls oils, restores skin barrier, and also moisturizes skin.
CLEARING SERUM
- 5% Niacinamide reduces hyperpigmentation, dark spots, & freckles by inhibiting melanosome transfer
- 2% Alpha Arbutin in combination works on tan and brightens the skin by suppressing melanin production and protecting the skin from UV radiation.
OIL FREE MOISTURIZER
- Hydration: The 3% NMF Complex, rich in amino acids and minerals, mimics the skin’s natural moisturising factors to keep the skin deeply hydrated and nourished.
- Skin Barrier Strengthening: Panthenol (Vitamin B5) works to repair and protect the skin barrier, preventing moisture loss.
- Acne & Breakout Prevention: The best oil free moisturiser for face ensures clogged pores and breakouts are minimised.
- Reduces Redness & Inflammation: With soothing properties, it helps calm irritated skin.
- Prevents Dryness Flare-ups: Balances hydration to prevent skin from overproducing oil.
