Calm, repair, and comfort — gentle barrier support for sensitive, dry, or reactive skin.

Empath Moisturizer is the soothing, fragrance-light cream that strengthens the skin's micro barrier and relieves itching, stinging, redness, and discomfort. A multi-ceramide complex (AP, EOP, NP) + phytosphingosine rebuilds and protects the barrier, while panthenol and organic extracts (blackcurrant seed, sunflower unsaponifiables, cardiospermum, rosemary, picea abies) calm inflammation and support renewal. Squalane and aloe vera hydrate deeply without heaviness, making it ideal for eczema/psoriasis-prone, sensitive, dry, or normal skin. This non-irritating formula absorbs comfortably, reduces flare-ups, and restores balance — apply twice daily for lasting relief and healthier skin.

How to Use

Apply a pea-sized amount to clean skin morning and/or evening.
Gently massage into face, neck, and any irritated or dry areas.
Use after serum (if using) and before SPF (morning).
Apply twice daily — especially generous on eczema/psoriasis-prone spots.
Patch test if skin is highly reactive.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does this moisturizer help with eczema or psoriasis? +

The ceramide complex (AP, EOP, NP) + phytosphingosine rebuilds the skin barrier to reduce transepidermal water loss and calm inflammation. Panthenol and organic extracts soothe itching/stinging/redness, while squalane hydrates without clogging — many with eczema/psoriasis see relief in flare-ups with twice-daily use.

Is this moisturizer non-irritating for sensitive skin? +

Yes — it's formulated to be ultra-gentle with no fragrance, alcohol, or harsh actives. Ceramides, panthenol, and soothing extracts calm reactivity, while the neutral texture avoids triggering flares. Ideal for sensitive or erythema-prone skin.

Will this moisturizer feel heavy or greasy? +

No — it's rich in barrier-repairing ingredients but absorbs comfortably without greasiness. The formula is emollient yet non-occlusive, making it suitable for sensitive/dry skin that still needs hydration without feeling weighed down.

Can I use this after actives like retinol or vitamin C? +

Yes — it's an excellent occlusive layer. Apply actives first, wait 1–2 minutes, then seal with Empath Moisturizer. The ceramides and panthenol help buffer irritation and lock in benefits for better tolerance.

Is this pregnancy safe? +

We always recommend consulting with your physician or OB-GYN before using any skincare during pregnancy. Empath Moisturizer is gentle with no harsh actives, but your doctor knows your specific situation best. Have that conversation and follow their guidance.

Can I use this alone or do I need a serum first? +

It works great alone for basic hydration and calming needs. For enhanced results, apply after a serum (like Clean Slate or VC) — Empath seals in actives while adding extra barrier repair and soothing.
