How does this moisturizer restore the skin’s moisture barrier?

The ProactivMD moisturizer replenishes lost moisture with key humectants that attract and retain water at the skin surface. It also contains soothing actives to reduce the sensation of tightness and visible redness caused by dryness. Regular use supports a healthier, more balanced skin texture.

• Hyaluronic acid draws hydration into the outer skin layers for immediate plumping.
• Bisabolol calms irritation and supports barrier recovery.
• Lightweight emollients smooth texture without clogging pores.

Will this moisturizer work with acne treatments like benzoyl peroxide or topical retinoids?

Yes — the Ultra-Hydrating formula is designed to complement active acne therapies by supplying gentle moisture that helps reduce dryness and flaking. It’s non-comedogenic and formulated to avoid adding excess oil while helping skin feel comfortable between treatment applications.

• Fast-absorbing finish prevents interference with acne serums or spot treatments.
• Suitable layered beneath sunscreen in daytime routines.
• Helps minimize irritation commonly seen with potent acne actives.

What key ingredients are inside and what do they do?

The moisturizer combines proven hydrators and calming botanicals to hydrate and soothe. Ingredients were chosen to address sensitivity and dryness without adding pore-clogging oils. The result is a balanced, restorative cream suited to acne-prone complexions.

• Hyaluronic acid — provides multi-depth hydration and temporary plumping.
• Bisabolol — derived from chamomile, supports comfort and reduces visible redness.
• Green tea extract — offers antioxidant support and lightweight conditioning benefits.

How should I use this moisturizer in my daily skin routine?

Apply the moisturizer to clean skin after cleansing and any water-based serums, and before sunscreen in the morning. For evening, use after treatment serums or at the end of your regimen to lock in moisture. A pea-sized amount typically covers face and neck; adjust as needed for drier skin.

• Morning: cleanse, apply acne treatment if used, hydrate with this moisturizer, then sunscreen.
• Evening: cleanse, apply acne or repair serums, follow with moisturizer to restore overnight.
• Use daily for consistent barrier support and reduced tightness.
