Dry, sensitive skin and I’ve had to swap moisturizers every winter for ten years. Rich version sits on me like a second skin — no heaviness, no occlusive feel, just plump. Three jars deep and counting.

I bought Light for my combo skin and I’m in love. The gel-cream finish disappears in seconds and my SPF goes on like silk on top. Six weeks of nightly use and my barrier feels stronger than it has in years.

Pregnancy-safe was my #1 requirement and this checked every box. Squalane and peptides without any iffy ingredients. Cushion-soft is exactly the right word — feels like a sigh of relief at the end of the day.

Genuinely great moisturizer with a nice quiet scent. Texture and absorption are perfect for my mature skin. Half-star for jar packaging — gorgeous but I’d love a refill pod. Otherwise this is becoming my daily.
From the dailies edit
Azelaic + rice ferment jelly cleanser. Gentle daily wash that leaves the skin barrier intact.
Sugarcane-derived emulsifying balm. Melts SPF and mascara in one pass — never stripping, never tacky.
Peptide-rich whipped moisturizer for combo and oily skin. Finishes like satin, never tacky.
Heavyweight overnight balm for dry, compromised, or post-active skin. The barrier reset, in a jar.

I’ve used it morning and night for three months. It absorbs in 30 seconds, sits perfectly under SPF, and my skin actually looks plumper. Worth the $82.

I tried Rich first and it was too occlusive for my T-zone. Swapped to Light and it’s perfect — no breakouts, no greasy finish, glow stays till evening.

Most peptide creams pill under sunscreen. This one doesn’t. Skin feels firmer after about six weeks. Texture is genuinely cushion-y, no fragrance, no sting.

From our derm panel
“A peptide moisturizer that actually layers cleanly under SPF is rarer than you’d think. The Cushion Cream’s emollient base is dialed in — it’s the daily I suggest to patients on retinoids who need barrier support without occlusion.”
