UpCircle Ceramide Gel Moisturiser with Maca Root Peptides - 50ml

Cooling ceramide gel moisturiser for lasting hydration and a calm, balanced feel

This weightless gel gives your skin the comfort of ceramides without the heaviness of a cream. It pairs encapsulated Ceramide NP with peptides from upcycled maca root and bilberry seed oil for softness. It's especially useful for oily, combination, mature, and changeable skin.

Hormonal shifts can leave your skin drier, oilier, or hot and flushed from one day to the next. A cooling gel provides moisture that feels fresh without the heaviness. Massage it into your face and neck each morning and evening, after cleansing.

Why choose a ceramide gel moisturiser?

Ceramides are natural lipids that hold your skin cells together and lock in moisture. Ceramides can become less stable once exposed to air, so UpCircle encases them in tiny lipid parcels to help protect them. These parcels protect the ceramides until they reach your skin, then release them gradually over several hours.

Why you'll love this gel moisturiser:

• Instantly refreshing: An odourless cooling agent refreshes hot, flushed-feeling skin without menthol or fragrance.
• Hydration at every level: Glycerin and eight other water-loving ingredients draw moisture into your skin and help it stay there.
• Barrier-loving ceramides: Encapsulated ceramides help strengthen your skin’s natural barrier, leaving it feeling calm, comfortable and hydrated.
• Smoother, plumper-looking skin: Upcycled maca root peptides help your complexion look firmer and more supple over time.
• No shine, no pilling: The lightweight gel absorbs quickly, leaving a smooth finish that layers easily under SPF and makeup.

Is this ceramide gel right for your skin?

This is a great choice if your skin feels oily, combination, or unpredictable from week to week. It's ideal if you're going through perimenopause or menopause and your skin often feels hot or dehydrated. It also suits you if rich creams leave your skin feeling heavy or greasy. If your skin is sensitive, do a small patch test before first use.
