How does this gel improve hydration and skin texture?

The formula blends hyaluronic acid and collagen peptides to support the skin’s moisture network and surface elasticity. Its lightweight gel base allows rapid absorption so the skin feels hydrated without heaviness or residue. Regular use may help the complexion look smoother and more resilient.

• Hyaluronic acid for immediate and lasting moisture
• Hydrolyzed collagen to support skin’s firmness appearance
• Fast-absorbing gel texture for non-greasy finish

What role does astaxanthin play in this daytime moisturizer?

Astaxanthin is included as a potent antioxidant to help the skin defend against daily environmental stressors. DHC’s formulation uses astaxanthin alongside other supportive ingredients to promote an even-looking tone and to help reduce the visible effects of oxidative stress on skin appearance. It's formulated without fragrance or artificial colorants for minimal irritation risk.

• Powerful antioxidant support from astaxanthin
• Works with royal jelly and collagen for multifunctional care
• Fragrance- and colorant-free for sensitive-friendly wear

How quickly will it absorb and can I apply makeup over it?

The gel is formulated to absorb rapidly, leaving a smooth, slightly dewy canvas that won’t pill under makeup. Because it’s lightweight, it layers well under sunscreen and foundation without feeling heavy. Allow a brief moment after application for optimal blending of makeup products.

• Quick absorption keeps skin non-greasy
• Compatible with sunscreen and cosmetic layering
• Leaves a toned, hydrated base for makeup

What ingredients should I notice on the label?

• Astaxanthin – antioxidant support
