Description
Light moisturiser from ZO Skin Health. The lighter sister of Recovery Crème: the same actives, in a texture that does not feel heavy.
What it does
A cream is chosen not for its actives but for its texture: the same ingredients in a rich or a light base make for different experiences, and the one that gets used every day is the one that feels comfortable.
Here the emollient part is jojoba esters and sodium hyaluronate instead of shea and ceramides: they replenish lipids and water without leaving a film.
The polyglutamic acid, Lactococcus ferment lysate and acetyl hexapeptide-8 are the same as in the rich version.
Fragrance-free.
Who it is for
Mild dryness and redness, normal or combination skin, and any skin in summer. If they are moderate or your skin is fragile, Recovery Crème will suit you better.
Key ingredients
- Jojoba esters and sodium hyaluronate — replenish lipids and water without heaviness
- Polyglutamic acid — a fermented humectant with high water retention
- Lactococcus ferment lysate — a probiotic derivative that supports the barrier
- Acetyl hexapeptide-8 — a peptide aimed at expression lines

How to use it
On clean, dry skin, morning or night.
Retinol and exfoliating acids, never on the same night: alternate the nights—together they do not add up, they irritate. And on an open or scabbed wound, no retinol until the skin has closed: on an open wound it delays re-epithelialisation (Hung et al., 1989).
Size
50 ml.
