What’s in it?

It has key ingredients like Hyaluronic Acid, Maris Aqua (also known as Sea Water) and Vitamin B3 (also known Niacinamide).

Sea Water, has been used for centuries to treat cuts, acne and dermatitis. It contains minerals such as magnesium, calcium, sodium and potassium. If you are deficient in a mineral you’ll notice that your skin will be more dry, dull, irritate and blotchy. Incorporating products that include Sea Water on these ailments, will work towards strengthening the outer layer of your skin.

Dr Adam Sheridan, spokesperson for Australasian College of Dermatologists says “Salt water can help to clean pores, balance oil and sebum production and kill bacteria that can contribute to acne vulgaris and rosacea. It also has a slight exfoliating effect, which increases the turnover of the outer skin layers.”

Niacinamide, is relatively new to the skincare market and is slowing becoming a ‘holy grail’ ingredient in moisturisers. It’s been known to reduce hyperpigmentation, minimise the signs of ageing and improve the epidermal barrier.

Dermatologist, Dr Natasha Cook says “Niacinamide increases the production of one of the most important lipids, ceramides, which strengthens your skin and prevents water loss. Your skin will be stronger, better hydrated and healthier, as well as less sensitive through B3 useage. It’s also especially good for rosacea sufferers.”

How do I get the most out of it?

A little goes a long way when it comes to the cream, you only need to use a pea-sized amount every evening to get the best results. Follow this guide to get even more from it: 

1) On your jaw, work from your chin towards your earlobes

2) When it comes to your cheeks, smooth the moisturiser from your nose towards your temples.

3) Then on your forehead, massage the moisturiser in smoothing movements from the centre of your face outwards.

4) Finally, massage in circular motions from your eyebrows to your nose. Delicately dab with your fingertips around your eyes, making sure not to get any in your eyes
