Dr Laura's Notes

Skin Type:

All Skin Types, including sensitive, acne-prone and rosacea-prone.

This is for you if…

You have sensitive or reactive skin, regular redness, or you've been overdoing the actives, and you want a moisturiser that actively repairs the barrier rather than just adding moisture on top.

A weightless, fragrance-free gel cream with ceramides, Palmitoyl Tripeptide-38 and Ergothioneine that repairs the barrier and calms redness.

PALMITOYL TRIPEPTIDE-38 (MATRIXYL SYNTHE'6): A clinically studied peptide that stimulates six skin matrix components including collagen I, III and IV, plumping fine lines and improving skin firmness.

CERAMIDE NP AND PHYTOSPHINGOSINE: Bioidentical ceramides that directly restore the skin's lipid barrier, reducing water loss and calming redness.

LACTOBACILLUS FERMENT (POSTBIOTIC): A vegan fermentation-derived ingredient that rebalances the skin microbiome, reducing the inflammation and sensitivity that follow microbiome disruption.

ERGOTHIONEINE: A naturally occurring antioxidant from mushrooms, unusually stable in formula, that protects against free radical damage from UV and pollution.

REPAIRS THE SKIN BARRIER: Ceramide NP and Phytosphingosine directly restore the lipid structure of the barrier, reducing water loss and calming reactive skin.
SOFTENS FINE LINES AND FIRMS SKIN: Palmitoyl Tripeptide-38 stimulates six skin matrix components including collagen I, III and IV, visibly plumping fine lines with consistent use.
CALMS REDNESS AND MICROBIOME IMBALANCE: Lactobacillus Ferment postbiotic rebalances the skin microbiome, reducing the redness and reactivity that follow microbiome disruption.
WEIGHTLESS FOR ALL SKIN TYPES: The fragrance-free, non-comedogenic gel texture absorbs without residue and works for acne-prone and oily skin as well as dry and sensitive.

Why It's Phare Approved

Most moisturisers add hydration on top of the skin. This one repairs the structural foundation underneath it. The Palmitoyl Tripeptide-38 (MATRIXYL synthe'6) is a clinically studied peptide that stimulates six skin matrix components including collagen I, III and IV, and the Lactobacillus Ferment postbiotic addresses the microbiome disruptions that drive rosacea, eczema and general reactivity. The gel texture means it works for oily and acne-prone skin as much as for dry and sensitive, which makes it one of the few moisturisers I'd recommend across a very wide range of patients.

1. Use morning and evening, after cleansing and any serums.
2. Apply a small amount to face and neck. The gel spreads easily and a little goes a long way.
3. Allow to absorb before applying SPF in the morning.
4. If your barrier is particularly compromised or reactive, this can be used on its own without a serum underneath until things settle.
Aqua (Water/Eau), Glycerin, Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride, Propanediol, Cetearyl Alcohol, Squalane, Cocos Nucifera (Coconut) Fruit Extract, Sodium Stearoyl Glutamate, Carbomer, Phenoxyethanol, Caprylyl Glycol, Lactobacillus Ferment, Diisostearyl Malate, Sodium Polyacrylate, Ceramide NP, Ethylhexylglycerin, Hexylene Glycol, Sodium Phytate, Citric Acid, Hydroxypropyl Cyclodextrin, Sodium Hyaluronate, Sodium Hydroxide, Phytosphingosine, Palmitoyl Tripeptide-38, Ergothioneine

The ceramide content here is one component of a more layered formula than most budget options. The Palmitoyl Tripeptide-38 is a clinically studied peptide backed by peer-reviewed research on collagen stimulation. The Lactobacillus Ferment postbiotic is a category above standard emollients in terms of microbiome science. Ergothioneine is genuinely unusual at any price point. If you're buying purely for barrier repair, a good pharmacy ceramide cream will do that job. If you want barrier repair, collagen support, microbiome balance and antioxidant protection in a single fragrance-free product, there isn't a pharmacy equivalent.
Yes. Gel describes the texture format, not the level of hydration. The Glycerin, Sodium Hyaluronate and Squalane are effective humectants and emollients, and the ceramide complex actively improves the barrier's ability to retain moisture rather than just adding surface hydration. People with very dry skin sometimes layer the Intense Replenishing Serum underneath for additional lipid nourishment. Both approaches work.
Yes. None of the ingredients are contraindicated during pregnancy or breastfeeding. Ceramides, Palmitoyl Tripeptide-38, Ergothioneine, Lactobacillus Ferment, Squalane and Sodium Hyaluronate are all considered safe. This is a good option during pregnancy when barrier sensitivity tends to increase and many active serums have to be stopped.
Yes. Apply after your actives as the final step before SPF in the morning. If you're experiencing retinoid irritation, applying this first as a light buffer before your retinoid can reduce sensitivity while your skin adjusts, then follow with the retinoid on top.
