Our experienced partner
Created by Poko and Rob, this moisturiser was inspired by Rob's personal and professional experiences. Athletic training in outdoor conditions over a number of years had taken a toll on his skin, and he has witnessed similar happen to those around him. The answer? A broad spectrum moisturising formula that simultaneously cares for dry skin while protecting from outside elements. This moisturiser is packaged in a sugarcane tube which means they're recyclable, sustainable and biodegradable. We want you to keep yourself protected from the sun while making a positive environmental impact.
UVA & UVB protection
Venuceane is an advanced ingredient used to prevent the delicate skin and cell structures from harmful sun rays. Octocrylene, an organic compound, acts as a screen against photo-ageing, thus, preventing hyperpigmentation and helping to care for dark spots, dryness, sensitive skin, and the visible signs of ageing.
A hydrating moisturiser with SPF benefits
White horehound and glycerin draw moisture back to the skin and forms a stronger skin barrier, detoxifying it from pollution. While doing so, skin is also shielded from UV rays giving you a complete package. Advances in skincare research means more people are becoming aware of the significance of using daily protection from the sun and outside pollutants, even if the sun is behind clouds.
Ingredients
Aqua (water), C12-15 alkyl benzoate, octocrylene**, titanium dioxide***, butyl methoxydibenzoylmethane, ethylhexyl salicylate, potassium cetyl phosphate, glycerin, hydrolyzed wheat protein/pvp crosspolymer, sorbitan stearate, peg-100 stearate, glyceryl stearate, magnesium aluminum silicate, thermus thermophillus ferment, xanthan gum, disodium edta, oleth-10, isodeceth-6, aluminum stearate, alumina, marrubium vulgare extract, simethicone*, ethylhexylglycerin, phenoxyethanol.
*We do not add silicones to our products however because simethicone is used in the manufacture of the titanium dioxide ingredient we purchase as an anti-foaming ingredient, we have to list it. They normally remove this before the titanium dioxide is finished but in case there is a trace left, we have included it in our ingredients list.
**Octocrylene is an essential ingredient to protect your skin from UV rays. Always perform a patch test when trying out any new skincare product. But if you have sensitive skin or skin concerns such as rosacea or eczema, try out our Regenerating Collagen Moisturiser instead which contains zinc oxide, a mineral sunscreen.
***Titanium Dioxide is an essential ingredient in sunscreens. It is a non-comedogenic ingredient. It protects against UVA and UVB rays. Note that this ingredient is banned only as a food additive and is deemed completely safe and effective ingredient in cosmetics.

Key Actives
Venuceane
An antioxidant that acts as a skin- conditioning agent to boost skin's natural defense against UV damage, increases the rate of cell renewal to help strengthen the skin's natural barrier.
White Horehound
A plant extract which protects and detoxifies the skin cells from external pollutants, strengthens the skin barrier, stimulates the skin's natural antioxidants and reduces inflammation.
Glycerin
A plant-derived humectant that works to draw moisture out of the air into the skin, keeping the skin moisturised. It works to maintain the natural moisture barrier which defends the skin from environmental damage, dryness and irritation.
Wheat Protein
High in amino acids, this protein increases skin firmness and helps to retain moisture in the skin. It prevents the skin from drying out and reduces the appearance of wrinkles.
How to Use
Apply liberally in the AM or reapply throughout the day, with or without cleansing. Spread the product evenly across your face and neck and work into the skin in circular motions, avoiding your direct eye area. Reapply straight after getting out of water.
