The ISNTREE Hyaluronic Acid Moist Cream answers both halves at once, running ten molecular weights of Hyaluronic Acid against a barrier complex of Ceramide NP at 0.5%, Squalane and Shea Butter. ISNTREE has built its Seoul range since 2014 on putting one active at a high concentration at the centre of each formula, and this cream is the fullest expression of that idea.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eKey Benefits\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTen molecular weights of Hyaluronic Acid spread hydration through the layers:\u003c\/strong\u003e Hyaluronic Acid binds water, and the size of the molecule decides where it does it, with the large fractions holding water as a film at the surface and the smaller ones carrying it into the layers below. Ten weights across that range means the hydration is distributed rather than stacked on top.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAt 0.5%, Ceramide NP rebuilds the structure that lets water escape:\u003c\/strong\u003e Ceramide NP is identical to a lipid your skin already makes, and it slots back into the barrier to cut moisture loss at source. That is the difference between a cream that hydrates for an afternoon and one that changes how dry your skin is in a fortnight.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWhere the ceramide rebuilds, Squalane and Shea Butter seal:\u003c\/strong\u003e Squalane is close to the skin's own oil and sinks in without shine, while Shea Butter forms the richer, sealing layer over the top. Between them they hold down the water the Hyaluronic Acid has drawn in, which is why the improvement accumulates instead of resetting every morning.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTexture \u0026amp; Finish\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is a proper cream, thick in the jar and unhurried on the skin, staying faintly cushioned rather than vanishing on contact.

It uses ten types of Hyaluronic Acid where the Aqua Gel Cream uses five, and it adds Ceramide NP at 0.5%, Squalane and Shea Butter for a barrier repair and moisture-retention profile the gel does not carry. Choose the Aqua Gel Cream for oily and combination skin, and the Moist Cream for dry, very dry and mature skin.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: Is it true that Hyaluronic Acid can dry your skin out in cold weather?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA: Hyaluronic Acid binds water, and if there is little moisture in the air around it and nothing sealing it in, some of that water leaves the skin again. That is a formulation problem rather than an ingredient problem, and it is precisely what the Ceramide NP, Squalane and Shea Butter in this cream exist to solve. Hyaluronic Acid with a lipid layer over it behaves entirely differently from Hyaluronic Acid on its own.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: Does this work as a night cream, in the morning, or both?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA: Both. The richer texture makes it a natural night cream, where the longer absorption time suits it. In the morning it is the moisturiser step after your serum, with sunscreen going over the top as the final layer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe interesting number on this cream is not the ten Hyaluronic Acids printed on the front but the 0.5% ceramide behind them, because that is the one deciding whether any of the water stays.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"sn-explore-more\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eExplore more\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBrowse our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/dry-skin\"\u003edry skin\u003c\/a\u003e edit, or see more from \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/isntree\"\u003eISNTREE\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n","brand":"ISNTREE","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":59229192388942,"sku":"ISNS01-CR","price":14.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0798\/5057\/0062\/files\/ISNS01-CR.png?v=1778671451","url":"https:\/\/skinnomid.com\/products\/isntree-hyaluronic-acid-moist-cream","provider":"Skin-Nomad","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
