BENEFITS

Oil Control Regulates sebum production at the source — reducing shine and keeping skin balanced throughout the day.

Deep Hydration Delivers lasting moisture without oil or heaviness. Skin stays hydrated without the greasy feel that blocks pores.

Pore Care Zinc PCA helps minimise the appearance of enlarged pores and reduces congestion in oil-prone skin.

Antioxidant Defence Organic watercress extract protects skin from daily environmental damage that accelerates premature ageing and dullness.

Skin Balancing Natural moisturising factors — rhamnose, glucose, and glucuronic acid — mirror skin’s own hydration system, keeping oily skin in balance without disrupting its natural barrier.

Collagen Support — zinc PCA maintains skin firmness and supports natural collagen synthesis over time.

Calming Effect — aloe barbadensis base and betaine reduce redness and reactivity in congested or stressed skin.

MADE FOR

For oily skin, combination skin, and normal skin prone to shine or congestion. Suitable for all ages — from teenage skin managing excess oil to adult skin that feels balanced in winter but oily in summer. If your skin feels greasy by midday, looks shiny in the T-zone, or struggles to find a moisturiser that hydrates without adding weight, this gel-cream is formulated for you.

OUR ESTHETICIAN'S TIP

Zinc PCA works best with consistent daily use — sebum regulation is cumulative and most noticeable after 3 to 4 weeks. If your skin tends to be oily in summer and drier in winter, this gel-cream works year-round — in colder months layer a few drops of a lightweight face oil on top for added nourishment without disrupting oil balance. Avoid applying to freshly exfoliated skin on the same evening as an AHA treatment — allow actives to work separately.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this moisturiser suitable for oily skin?

Yes, Zinc+ Oil-Control Gel-Cream is specifically formulated for oily skin. The oil-free gel texture absorbs completely without leaving residue, and zinc PCA regulates sebum production at the source rather than just mattifying the surface. Suitable for oily, combination, and normal skin prone to shine.

Zinc PCA regulates sebum production, reduces surface shine, and has documented anti-inflammatory activity that helps calm congested and breakout-prone skin. It also supports natural collagen synthesis, making it effective for oily skin that still wants to address early signs of ageing without a heavy cream.

Yes. The gel-cream texture absorbs fully within minutes and creates a smooth, non-greasy base suitable for makeup application. It does not pill under foundation and does not add shine — making it a practical daily moisturiser for oily skin that wears makeup.

No. Zinc+ Oil-Control Gel-Cream contains zero comedogenic oils. The formula is built on aloe barbadensis leaf juice with no mineral oil, no silicones, no oils and no pore-blocking ingredients. It is specifically designed for skin that congests easily.

The formula contains natural fragrance derived from essential oils, limonene, linalool, geraniol, and citral, certified under COSMOS Natural standard. It contains no synthetic fragrance. For skin with fragrance sensitivity, patch test before use.

Sebum regulation with zinc PCA is cumulative. Most users notice reduced shine within the first week of consistent use. Visible improvement in pore appearance and breakout frequency is typically noticeable after 3 to 4 weeks of daily use morning and evening.

Yes. Apply your serum first, allow it to absorb fully, then apply this gel-cream as the final moisturising step. The lightweight gel texture seals in actives without interfering with their performance. Suitable for use in both morning and evening routines.

Yes. The formula is COSMOS Natural certified by Ecocert. The base is organic aloe barbadensis leaf juice, glycerin is made using organic ingredients, and the watercress extract is from organic farming. No parabens, no silicones, no SLS, no synthetic preservatives, no mineral oil.
