Not all moisturisers are created equal - and your skin knows it.
At Bloc Skincare, we believe that the right moisturiser isn’t just about how it feels on the skin - it’s about what’s inside. Whether you’re looking for a featherlight finish, everyday balance, or deep nourishment, the ingredients in your moisturiser should work with your skin’s biology, not just sit on top of it.
Here’s a breakdown of three essential moisturisers in the Bloc lineup - and the standout ingredients in each that help your skin stay hydrated, calm, and protected.
1. Weightless Moisturiser
Featherlight hydration, powered by actives and botanicals.
Best for oily, combination or breakout-prone skin, Weightless Moisturiser delivers hydration without heaviness. It uses a blend of lightweight emollients, humectants and calming plant extracts to refresh and rebalance skin.
Key Ingredients:
- Aloe Vera + Cucumber Extract: Naturally soothing and cooling, perfect for calming redness or sensitivity.
- Triple Hyaluronic Acid Complex (Hydrolyzed, Sodium, and Hydrolyzed Sodium Hyaluronate): Penetrates multiple layers of the skin to deeply hydrate and plump.
- Saccharomyces Ferment + Fruit Extracts (Watermelon, Apple, Lentil, Orange, Lemon, Bilberry): Provide antioxidant protection and mild enzymatic exfoliation to support radiance and skin clarity.
- Glycerin + Sodium PCA + Sodium Lactate: Powerful humectants that draw water into the skin and help maintain hydration.
- Tocopheryl Acetate (Vitamin E): An antioxidant that helps protect skin from environmental stress.
Why it works: This oil-free, gel-cream formula hydrates without clogging pores, making it ideal for those prone to congestion or shine. It leaves skin feeling smooth, calm, and refreshed.
2. Balanced Moisturiser
Nutrient-rich hydration that builds a resilient skin barrier.
Formulated for normal to combination skin - or anyone looking for daily nourishment -Balanced Moisturiser supports skin structure with barrier-repairing ceramides, smoothing peptides, and calming plant extracts. It’s slightly richer than Weightless but still absorbs beautifully.
Key Ingredients:
- Ceramide Complex (Ceramide NP, AP, EOP + Cholesterol + Phytosphingosine): Rebuilds and strengthens the skin’s natural barrier, improving moisture retention and resilience.
- Jojoba Seed Oil + Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride: Lightweight emollients that mimic skin’s natural lipids for non-greasy nourishment.
- Niacinamide (Vitamin B3): Supports skin barrier function, helps reduce redness, and refines skin texture.
- Peptides (Palmitoyl Pentapeptide-4): Helps firm and smooth skin by supporting collagen synthesis.
- Sodium Hyaluronate + Glycerin + Sodium PCA: Provide multi-layer hydration and prevent moisture loss.
-
Green Tea + Kunzea Fruit Extracts: Deliver antioxidant and anti-inflammatory support to calm and protect.
Why it works: Balanced Moisturiser is an everyday essential for keeping your skin healthy, hydrated, and fortified - especially if you want visible barrier support without a heavy feel.
3. Heavy Moisturiser
Rich, reparative and deeply nourishing.
Heavy Moisturiser is your go-to for dry, sensitive or barrier-compromised skin. With nourishing butters, barrier-repairing peptides, and calming plant actives, it’s a restorative hug for your skin - especially in cooler months or after in-clinic treatments.
Key Ingredients:
- Butyrospermum Parkii (Shea) Nut Extract + Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride: Intensely nourishing emollients that soften and seal in moisture.
- Triple Hyaluronic Acid + Glycerin: Attract water into the skin to deeply rehydrate.
- Palmitoyl Tripeptide-1 + Palmitoyl Tetrapeptide-7: Advanced peptides that support collagen production and improve skin resilience.
- Teprenone: A patented molecule known to reduce redness, sensitivity and signs of irritation.
- Caffeine + Green Tea Extract: Calm inflammation and help reduce puffiness.
- Watermelon, Apple + Lentil Extracts: Provide antioxidant support and a boost of hydration.
Why it works: Heavy Moisturiser creates a barrier-protective shield over your skin, locking in hydration while calming irritation and visibly smoothing texture.
