🧬 Key ingredients
Centella Asiatica Extract
Provides the centella aspect of the Hyalu-Cica product line. In the formula, it supports a more comfortable, balanced skin feel complemented by intense hydration.
5-layer hyaluronic acid system
SKIN1004 communicates this as a hydrating system based on hyaluronic acids of various molecular sizes. The INCI includes Sodium Hyaluronate, Hyaluronic Acid and Hydrolyzed Hyaluronic Acid, which help bind moisture and maintain a softer, plumper skin feel.
Hydrolyzed Collagen
A low molecular weight hydrolysed collagen that acts as a hydrating and skin conditioning ingredient, helping to provide a softer, smoother and more elastic skin feel.
Niacinamide
A versatile form of vitamin B3 that supports a more even, radiant skin appearance and proper skin barrier function.
Adenosine
A skincare active ingredient commonly included in formulas that support smoother, more elastic and fresher skin appearance.
Glycerin + Sorbitol
Moisture-binding ingredients that further enhance the cream’s hydrating character and help prevent dry, tight skin sensations.
📊 What did the manufacturer’s tests show?
Based on a study involving 20 adults, SKIN1004 communicates hydrating effects lasting up to 100 hours after using the Hyalu-Cica Moisture Cream.
🎯 Who is it recommended for?
It can be a particularly good choice for:
- dry skin,
- dehydrated, moisture-deficient skin,
- uncomfortable, tight skin,
- normal skin when more intensive hydration is needed,
- those seeking a more nourishing formula than gel moisturisers but lighter than rich creams,
- those wanting long-lasting hydration without a heavy or greasy finish.
🧴 How to use
Apply an appropriate amount to the face as the last hydrating step in your skincare routine, then gently pat or smooth into the skin.
If used in the morning, finish your routine with sunscreen.
💗 Why do we love it?
Because it provides intense hydration without the classic heavy, greasy cream feeling. The centella, multi-layer hyaluronic acid system and hydrolysed collagen together approach the care of drier skin from the perspective of moisture deficiency and elasticity.
It can also be a good choice when a light gel cream is not enough but a rich barrier cream would be too much.
❓ Q&A
What is the texture like?
Moderately light, elastic, creamy texture that absorbs easily and leaves an airy, hydrated finish.
Does it really contain 5 types of hyaluronic acid?
SKIN1004 communicates the formula as a “5-layer hyaluronic acid” system. The INCI lists three named forms of hyaluronic acid: Sodium Hyaluronate, Hyaluronic Acid and Hydrolyzed Hyaluronic Acid.
Does the collagen rebuild the skin’s collagen?
No. The topically applied hydrolysed collagen should primarily be understood as a hydrating and skin conditioning ingredient: it can help provide a softer, smoother and more elastic skin feel.
How is it different from the Hyalu-Cica Sleeping Pack?
The Moisture Cream is an everyday hydrating cream, while the Sleeping Pack is a light, gel-like night mask. The cream can be used morning and evening, whereas the Sleeping Pack is more of an extra night-time hydrating step.
Can it be used daily?
Yes. It can be used as both a morning and evening hydrator.
