Hyaluronic acid is known for hydration, but in many cleansers or rinse-off products, its benefits are washed away during cleansing.

That's where Cationic Hyaluronic Acid (CHA) is different.

CHA carries a positive charge that helps it bind more effectively to the skin's surface, helping retain hydration even after rinsing.

It's one of the key ingredients behind our Triple Action Lotion Face Wash, designed to cleanse, hydrate, and comfort.

Moisturizer is what brings your routine together.

A simple skincare routine doesn’t need to be complicated, it just needs to be consistent and structured around your skin’s needs.

This is a simple routine you can follow daily for balanced skin care:
Cleanse → Tone (optional) → Exfoliate → Treatment → Moisturize → Sunscreen

Moisturizer plays a key role by helping reduce transepidermal water loss (TEWL), and supporting the skin after active steps like treatment and exfoliate.

When used consistently, it helps maintain moisture leading to a comfortable and balanced feeling.

Every step matters, but moisturizer is what locks it all in.

At Optaderm, we approach moisturization as a system, not a single product.

Our formulations are designed across a continuum of lipid/oil content, from 0% to 100%, to match different skin needs and conditions.

Lower oil levels support hydration-focused skin, while higher levels provide stronger barrier support for dryness or barrier imbalance.

It’s not about using more, it’s about using what your skin needs.

Not all moisturizers work the same—texture reflects function.

Gels are lightweight and focus on hydration, making them suitable when the skin needs water without added weight.

Lotions provide a balance of hydration and light lipid support, often preferred for combination or oil-prone skin.

Creams offer more structured support, helping maintain moisture and comfort—especially in drier conditions.

Oils and balms don’t add hydration directly, but help reduce moisture loss and support the skin when it feels dry or compromised.

Different skin types and environments require different levels of support.

A good moisturizer should be felt, not seen.

Hydration alone is not enough.

Hydration refers to water within the skin, while lubrication comes from lipids that help hold that water in place.

Without enough lipid support, moisture can evaporate more easily—leaving skin feeling dry or tight.

Moisturizing is not just about adding water, it’s about helping the skin hold onto it at the surface.

When both hydration and lubrication are balanced, skin feels more comfortable, smooth, and supported.

It’s not always about how much moisture you apply—but how well your skin can hold onto it.

Your skin works like a structure. Think of skin cells as bricks, and lipids as the mortar that holds everything together. This structure helps keep moisture where it belongs—within the skin.

When this balance is disrupted, the structure weakens. Moisture escapes more easily through transepidermal water loss (TEWL), and the skin can feel dry, tight, or sensitive.

Everyday factors like over-exfoliation, harsh cleansers, and environmental changes can gradually affect this balance.

Supporting the skin barrier helps restore this structure over time—by maintaining hydration and replenishing the lipids that help keep moisture in place.

This includes essential lipids like ceramides and skin-compatible oils, alongside consistent hydration, so the skin can better retain moisture and reduce TEWL over time.

Because it’s not just about adding moisture—it’s about helping your skin maintain it.
