Key Botanical Ingredients
Sesame Oil
Sesame oil is a nourishing botanical oil traditionally used in skincare to soften and condition the skin. It contributes rich moisturisation to the formula and helps support the skin's natural moisture barrier, making it particularly valuable in an overnight cream.
Wheatgerm Oil
Wheatgerm oil is naturally rich in vitamin E and other nourishing compounds. It is traditionally valued in skincare for its conditioning and moisturising properties and helps give the cream its rich, nourishing character.
Jojoba Oil
Jojoba oil is prized for its similarity to the skin's natural oils. It helps soften and condition the skin while providing moisturisation without an excessively heavy feel. It complements the richer oils and butters in the formula beautifully.
Cocoa Butter
A wonderfully rich plant butter, cocoa butter helps moisturise, soften and condition the skin. It helps create the luxurious texture of the cream while helping to lock in moisture and protect against the uncomfortable feeling of dryness.
Carrot Extract
Carrot extract is a valued botanical ingredient in natural skincare. It contributes nourishing and conditioning properties to the formula and complements the moisturising oils and cocoa butter.
Frankincense Oil
Frankincense has been treasured for centuries for its distinctive resinous aroma and traditional botanical uses. In skincare, frankincense is valued for its conditioning properties and is traditionally associated with supporting skin renewal and a healthy-looking complexion.
Its warm, resinous aroma also makes it a beautiful ingredient for a calming evening skincare ritual.
Cedarwood Oil
Cedarwood essential oil adds a warm, woody depth to the fragrance and is traditionally valued for its skin-conditioning properties.
Combined with lavender and frankincense, it creates the cream's distinctive calming, grounding aroma.
Vitamin E
Vitamin E (tocopherol) is an antioxidant ingredient that helps protect the formula and contributes nourishing and conditioning benefits to the skin.

What Does This Moisturiser Do?
Deeply moisturises | sesame oil, jojoba oil, wheatgerm oil and cocoa butter work together to provide rich, lasting moisturisation. The result is skin that feels softer, smoother and more comfortable.
Helps replenish dry-feeling skin | if your skin often feels tight, dry or lacking in comfort by the end of the day, a richer night cream can provide the additional nourishment it needs. This formula is designed specifically to give skin a more intensive moisturising experience than a lightweight daytime cream.
Supports a healthy-looking complexion | wheatgerm oil, carrot extract and vitamin E provide a combination of nourishing and antioxidant properties, helping support skin that looks healthy, smooth and radiant.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is it suitable for dry skin?
Yes. This cream was specifically formulated with richer, nourishing ingredients such as sesame oil, wheatgerm oil, jojoba oil and cocoa butter, making it an excellent choice for skin that feels dry, tight or lacking in moisture.
Is it suitable for mature skin?
Yes. Mature skin can benefit from rich moisturising and conditioning care. The combination of botanical oils, cocoa butter, carrot extract and vitamin E helps leave mature skin feeling softer, smoother and more supple.
Is it suitable for sensitive skin?
It can be suitable for sensitive-feeling skin, and the formula includes lavender and cedarwood, which are traditionally valued for their soothing qualities. However, everyone's skin is different, particularly sensitive skin, so we strongly recommend patch testing before use.
Can I use it every night?
Yes. It is designed to be used nightly as the final step in your evening skincare routine.
Can I use it with other skincare products?
Yes. It can be incorporated into a simple multi-step evening routine. We recommend cleansing first, followed by toner and then the Overnight Replenishing Cream.
Will it feel greasy?
It is a rich cream, so it naturally feels more nourishing than a lightweight daytime moisturiser. However, it is designed to be massaged into the skin and used as an overnight treatment, when a richer moisturising feel is often welcome.
Start with a small amount and allow it time to settle into the skin.
Can I use it if I have combination or oily skin?
Yes, as it is suitable for all skin types. However, because it is a rich cream, those with combination or oily skin may prefer to use a smaller amount or apply it to areas that tend to become dry.
What gives the cream its fragrance?
The natural fragrance comes primarily from the essential oils of lavender, frankincense and cedarwood. Together they create a calming, soothing and gently woody botanical aroma.
Is it organic?
The cream contains a minimum of 95% certified organically produced ingredients, marked with an asterisk in the ingredients list. Please refer to the complete ingredients list for the full details.
Does it contain wheat?
