Hydration Heroes

Key Ingredients

Squalane

Lightweight Moisture

Squalane is a lightweight, skin-mimicking emollient that softens and conditions without feeling heavy or greasy on the skin.

Soothing Moisture

Panthenol

Panthenol (provitamin B5) is a humectant that hydrates and soothes, helping to condition and comfort the skin barrier.

Deep Hydration

Hyaluronic Acid

Hyaluronic acid draws moisture into the skin to plump, soften, and keep the complexion looking hydrated and supple.

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know before choosing, using, and caring for your skin with Purity products.

Explore Help Center

What skin types is this moisturizer best for?

It suits all skin types, including acne-prone skin, and is especially comforting for skin that feels dehydrated, stressed, or reactive. Squalane, coconut extract, and sodium hyaluronate help restore softness without heaviness.

Where does it fit in my routine?

Apply it over your serum, morning and evening, to lock in hydration. In the morning, follow with sunscreen; at night, it makes a soothing final step.

Is the texture heavy or lightweight?

As the name suggests, it is a lighter-weight moisturizer that absorbs comfortably, making it a good fit if richer creams feel like too much. It still helps reinforce the moisture barrier.

Can it help with a compromised or sensitized barrier?

It is formulated to support the skin's natural barrier and reduce moisture loss, which can be comforting when skin feels irritated or over-exfoliated. If you have persistent irritation, it is wise to check in with a professional.

Does it work well with the rest of the Skin Recovery System?

Yes, it is designed to pair with EltaMD's Skin Recovery line for a coordinated, barrier-supporting routine. Using the products together can enhance the calming, hydrating benefits.
