💧 Intensively moisturising jelly cream with 10 types of hyaluronic acid, ceramides and peptides
The medicube Hyaluronic Ceramide Jelly Cream is a lightweight yet intensely moisturising jelly cream that helps to replenish the skin with moisture, support the skin barrier, and create a smoother, plumper and more radiant complexion with 10 types of hyaluronic acid, ceramides and a multi-peptide complex.
Its special, rich jelly texture absorbs quickly while leaving the skin feeling soft and hydrated without a greasy or sticky after-feel. For this reason, the formula can be an interesting moisturiser for dry and dehydrated skin as well as for combination and oily skin. Medicube recommends it for all skin types, including sensitive skin.
Alongside various molecular weights of hyaluronic acid, ceramides, peptides, niacinamide, ectoin and squalane work together to support hydration, the skin’s natural protective layer, and the appearance of more elastic, smoother skin.
💦 10 types of hyaluronic acid – multi-level hydration
One of the main pillars of the formula is a complex of 10 different hyaluronic acid and hyaluronate derivatives.
The different forms complement each other to help maintain skin hydration and reduce moisture loss. Properly hydrated skin appears plumper, smoother and more elastic, which can also lessen the appearance of fine lines emphasised by dehydration.
The INCI includes, among others, Hydrolyzed Hyaluronic Acid, Hyaluronic Acid, Sodium Hyaluronate, Potassium Hyaluronate, Sodium Hyaluronate Crosspolymer and Sodium Acetylated Hyaluronate.
🛡️ Ceramides – support for the skin barrier
Ceramides are important components of the skin’s natural lipid layer, making them particularly valuable in caring for dry, dehydrated or compromised barrier skin.
They help reduce moisture loss and support the proper function of the skin’s natural protective layer, allowing the skin to retain hydration and comfort for longer.
Interestingly, although the medicube product presentation highlights 3 ceramides, the current ingredient list includes Ceramide NP, NS, AP, AS and EOP, that is, five different ceramides.
✨ Multi-peptide complex – for a smoother, plumper complexion
The formula contains several peptides, including Copper Tripeptide-1, Dipeptide-2, Oligopeptide-1, Palmitoyl Pentapeptide-4 and Tripeptide-1.
Peptides are popular ingredients in modern anti-ageing skincare: they can help support the skin’s firmer, more elastic appearance, while together with the moisturising formula contribute to a smoother and plumper complexion.
This can be especially beneficial for dehydrated skin, skin that has lost elasticity or skin with fine lines.
💙 Niacinamide, ectoin and squalane – more than simple hydration
The composition of Hyaluronic Ceramide Jelly Cream is much more complex than the name “hyaluronic acid moisturiser” suggests.
The formula also contains niacinamide, which supports the skin barrier function and a more even, radiant complexion.
Ectoin is particularly useful on skin exposed to environmental stress or more sensitive skin due to its moisturising and skin-protective properties, while squalane helps keep the skin soft and supports its lipid layer.
The formula also contains allantoin, vitamin E and several plant-derived ingredients.
🧪 Clinical trial results
In a clinical trial published by medicube, the following results were measured with product use:
+246% – increase in skin hydration, according to the manufacturer up to a depth of 10 skin layers
+79% – smoother skin texture
+21.79% – improvement in the skin’s moisture-retaining barrier
−14.95% – reduction in redness
The clinical trial was conducted by the Global Institute of Dermatological Sciences. Results may vary individually.
MyBelle note: the “hydration to a depth of 10 layers” should be treated as a clinical claim by the manufacturer; it does not mean the cosmetic penetrates ten anatomical layers of the skin.
🌿 Who do we recommend it for?
The medicube Hyaluronic Ceramide Jelly Cream can be used on all skin types, but it may be especially suitable for:
- dry and dehydrated skin,
- dehydrated, tight skin,
- weakened skin barrier,
- uneven, rough skin texture,
- appearance of fine lines and wrinkles,
- skin that has lost elasticity,
- dull, depleted skin,
- hydration for more sensitive skin,
- or for those who want intensive hydration without a heavy, greasy cream feel.
The manufacturer also recommends it for combination and oily skin due to its easily absorbed, non-sticky jelly texture.
💧 What is the texture like?
One of the cream’s special features is its rich, translucent jelly texture, designed for intensive hydration yet absorbing quickly.
It does not leave a heavy, greasy or sticky layer on the skin, making it interesting for those who like the Korean “glass skin” look of plump, dewy skin but do not prefer thick creams.
☀️🌙 How to use
Use morning and/or evening after serums and other targeted treatments, during the moisturising step.
Morning:
Apply an appropriate amount to the face, neck and – if desired – décolletage. Gently massage or pat into the skin, then wait until fully absorbed. Follow with sunscreen and makeup.
Evening:
After serums, apply a slightly larger amount to the face and neck, then allow to absorb completely.
medicube tip: the brand also recommends it for use with the AGE-R Booster Pro device to support a plumper, more hydrated skin appearance.
💛 Why do we love it?
Because it is not simply another hyaluronic acid moisturiser.
The 10 types of hyaluronic acid + multiple ceramides + multi-peptide complex simultaneously target skin hydration, moisture retention and a plumper, smoother appearance. This is combined with niacinamide, ectoin and squalane – so in a single lightweight jelly cream, you get a moisturising, barrier-supporting and anti-ageing formulation.
We particularly like that despite the rich moisturising composition, medicube aimed for a light, fast-absorbing, non-greasy texture.
❓ Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between Hyaluronic Ceramide Jelly Cream and a traditional hyaluronic acid moisturiser?
The formula is not based solely on hyaluronic acid. In addition to various hyaluronic acid/hyaluronate forms, it contains ceramides, peptides, niacinamide, ectoin and squalane, thus focusing not only on hydration but also on supporting the skin barrier and a smoother, plumper complexion.
Is it sufficient for dry skin?
Medicube recommends it for dry skin as well, and the formula contains several moisture-binding and lipid-replenishing ingredients. However, for very dry, lipid-deficient skin, depending on individual needs, a richer or more occlusive care may be necessary.
Can it be used on oily skin?
Yes. The manufacturer recommends it for oily and combination skin. Its jelly texture absorbs quickly and is designed not to leave a greasy or sticky skin feel.
Is it suitable for sensitive skin?
Medicube lists sensitive skin among the recommended skin types. However, with new cosmetics, it is always advisable to perform a patch test on a small skin area first if you have sensitive skin.
Can it be used morning and evening?
Yes. The cream can be used in both routines after serums. In the morning, sunscreen should follow as the last skincare step.
Can it be used alongside retinol, retinal or exfoliating acids?
Yes. Due to its moisturising and barrier-supporting composition, it fits well into routines based on active ingredients. The frequency of retinoid or exfoliant use should always be adjusted according to skin tolerance.
Is Hyaluronic Ceramide Jelly Cream part of the medicube Hyaluronic Line?
Yes, I would definitely classify it under the medicube Hyaluronic Line on MyBelle, so customers can easily find it alongside the brand’s other hyaluronic acid, intensive moisturising products.
