Zinc+ Oil-Control Face Gel is a 100% oil-free daily gel for men with oily, combination, and normal skin that produces excess shine and needs hydration without adding weight or congestion. Built without silicones or synthetic polymers, it absorbs in seconds and leaves nothing on the skin except results.

Zinc PCA regulates sebum production by inhibiting the enzyme responsible for excess oil in oily skin, while simultaneously delivering hydration through PCA, the skin’s own natural moisturising factor. Rhamnose, a clinically studied plant-derived active, stimulates collagen synthesis — in a published double-blind study, 1% Rhamnose applied twice daily showed significant improvement in skin firmness after 28 days. Glucuronic Acid supports the skin’s own hyaluronic acid production rather than just delivering it topically. Watercress extract adds concentrated antioxidant protection against daily environmental damage.

No silicones. No mineral oil. No synthetic fragrance. No harsh preservatives. 100% oil-free.

Best for: Oily, combination, and normal male skin needing sebum control, hydration, and anti-aging results without heaviness

Who it may not suit: Very dry male skin, use Hydra+ Active Face Cream instead. Fragrance-sensitive skin.

Certified COSMOS Natural by ECOCERT, meeting strict international standards for natural-origin skincare and ingredient safety.

BENEFITS

Sebum Control Zinc PCA inhibits 5-alpha reductase, the enzyme responsible for excess sebum production in oily skin. Reduces shine and surface oiliness without stripping or drying the skin, which only triggers more sebum production in response.

Oil-Free Hydration PCA, the hydration component of Zinc PCA, is the skin’s own natural moisturising factor. Combined with Sodium Hyaluronate and Glucuronic Acid, the gel delivers genuine hydration without a single drop of oil — skin feels hydrated and controlled at the same time.

Collagen Support Rhamnose, a clinically studied plant monosaccharide, stimulates collagen and fibronectin synthesis in the skin. Published clinical data shows significant improvement in skin firmness after 28 days of twice-daily use. An anti-ageing active in an oil-control gel — something most men’s skincare completely ignores.

Anti-Ageing Zinc supports collagen synthesis as a cofactor in the skin’s repair pathways. Rhamnose stimulates new collagen production. Together they address firmness and elasticity loss that affects oily skin as it ages — concerns that standard oil-control products leave entirely unaddressed.

Antioxidant Defence — watercress extract delivers vitamins C and E directly to skin, neutralising the daily free radical damage that accelerates ageing in unprotected male skin.

Barrier Support — Glucuronic Acid supports the skin’s own hyaluronic acid biosynthesis pathway, maintaining barrier integrity without adding oil or weight.

Suitable for Oily Skin Year Round — oil-free formula that works in summer heat, humid climates, and after sport without pilling, breaking down, or increasing shine.

MADE FOR

Zinc+ Oil-Control Face Gel is for men with oily or combination skin who want their face to look clean, fresh, and controlled without the heaviness of a cream. Oily skin is not well-hydrated skin, it is skin that has lost its moisture balance and overproduces sebum to compensate. This gel addresses both sides: it regulates excess oil and restores genuine hydration at the same time. Effective at any age from younger men managing shine to mature men with oily skin who still need collagen and anti-ageing support.

OUR ESTHETICIAN'S TIP

Oily skin is not well-hydrated skin, it is dehydrated skin overproducing sebum to compensate for moisture loss. Zinc PCA addresses both sides of this simultaneously: it reduces excess sebum while restoring the skin’s natural moisture balance.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will Zinc+ Oil-Control Face Gel dry out my skin?

No. Zinc PCA controls excess sebum without stripping. The PCA component is the skin’s own natural moisturising factor — it restores water balance while the zinc regulates oil. Glucuronic Acid and Sodium Hyaluronate add further oil-free hydration. Skin feels controlled and hydrated, not tight or dry.

Apply Botanical Brightening Serum first at Step 3 — it targets uneven tone, dark spots, and rough texture that oily skin commonly develops. Then apply Zinc+ Oil-Control Face Gel at Step 5 to control sebum and lock everything in. Follow with SPF in the morning. Two products, complete coverage, no shine.

Yes. The oil-free gel formula absorbs fully and does not break down with sweat or humidity. It is suitable for active men and works in warm and humid climates where cream moisturisers feel heavy and slide off.

Most collagen creams apply collagen topically — collagen molecules are too large to penetrate skin so the effect is surface only. Rhamnose stimulates the skin’s own collagen production from within. Published clinical data shows statistically significant improvement in skin firmness and fine lines after 28 days of twice-daily use at 1% concentration.

Yes. The formula is lightweight enough for twice-daily use. In the morning follow with SPF. In the evening use as the final step after cleansing and Botanical Brightening Serum.

Yes. COSMOS Natural certified by ECOCERT. No synthetic fragrance, silicones, mineral oil, parabens, or harsh preservatives. 100% oil-free formula.

Hydra+ Active Face Cream is a richer cream for normal to dry male skin needing deep hydration and post-shave calming. Zinc+ Oil-Control Face Gel is oil-free and designed for oily and combination skin needing sebum regulation, collagen support, and lightweight hydration without heaviness or shine. If you are unsure which suits you — dry and tight after cleansing means Hydra+, oily and shiny within hours means Zinc+.
