Minimalist Face Moisturizer for Dry Skin — 1.7 oz, Marula Oil 5% & Triple Hyaluronic, Fragrance-Free

Minimalist Face Moisturizer is a rich, fragrance-free cream combining 5% Marula Oil and a triple hyaluronic complex to deeply hydrate and nourish dry skin.

This concentrated 1.7 oz (50 g) facial moisturizer is formulated for dry to normal skin types and designed to restore softness, reduce flakiness, and support the skin’s lipid barrier. The formula pairs pharmaceutical-grade Marula Oil (sourced from Givaudan, Switzerland) with Hyaluronic Acid, Saccharide Isomerate, and Glycerin to lock moisture into multiple layers of the skin. Vitamins F and E help replenish skin lipids for improved resilience, while the clean formulation—free of fragrance, parabens, silicones, and sulfates—keeps the product gentle and non-comedogenic.

How does Marula Oil 5% help dry skin feel softer?

Marula Oil is rich in fatty acids, especially Omega-9, and antioxidants that replenish lipids lost through dryness. At 5% concentration, it creates an emollient layer that smooths rough patches and reduces visible flakiness without leaving a heavy greasy residue.

• Provides concentrated Omega-9 fatty acids for lipid replenishment
• Antioxidants support skin’s natural repair mechanisms
• Light, oil-based texture absorbs to soften rough, flaky areas

Will this keep skin hydrated throughout the day and night?

The moisturizer uses a triple hydration complex—Hyaluronic Acid, Saccharide Isomerate, and Glycerin—to attract and retain moisture at several layers of the epidermis. Clinical testing reported long-lasting hydration results, helping skin stay supple for extended periods when applied AM and PM.

• Hyaluronic Acid draws moisture into surface layers
• Saccharide Isomerate provides sustained moisture-binding at deeper layers
• Glycerin reinforces surface hydration and skin feel

Is this safe for sensitive or mature skin?

The formula is fragrance-free, non-comedogenic, and balanced to a skin-friendly pH of 5–6, minimizing irritation risk for sensitive and mature skin. Vitamins F and E support barrier repair without harsh additives, making it suitable for those prioritizing gentle, restorative care.

• Fragrance-free and free from parabens, silicones, and sulfates
• pH 5–6 to respect the skin’s natural acid mantle
• Vitamin blend helps reinforce the lipid barrier for mature or stressed skin

How should I incorporate this into my skincare routine?

Apply after cleansing, toning, and any serums while skin is slightly damp to maximize absorption. Massage a pea-to-nickel-sized amount into the face and neck until fully absorbed and follow with SPF in the morning. Use twice daily for consistent hydration and barrier support.

• Use AM and PM after serums and before sunscreen (AM)
• Massage into face and neck until absorbed; avoid rubbing harshly
• Suitable as the last hydrating step in multi-step routines

Who is this for: This moisturizer is ideal for people with dry, normal, or sensitive skin seeking a clean, effective hydrator that combines nourishing plant oil with multi-layer hydration. It suits those who prefer fragrance-free, clinically informed skincare and want a compact 1.7 oz option for daily use or travel without compromising on barrier-repair ingredients.
