What's Inside — And Why It Works
Squalane
Non-comedogenic oil seal Plant-derived. Mimics skin sebum. Suitable even for oily skin — absorbs without greasiness.
Acetyl Hexapeptide-37
Firming peptide A firming peptide that supports skin elasticity and reduces the appearance of fine lines over time. Premium-grade ingredient rarely found in skincare at this price — it's what sets this moisturizer apart.
Sodium Hyaluronate (HA)
Deep hydration draw Works with squalane: HA draws water in, squalane locks it in.
24-hr sustained moisture Clinically studied for long-lasting hydration — bonds to skin surface.
Niacinamide + Vit C + Vit E
Tone & antioxidant complex Shared with all 4 Zafra products — compounding brightness system-wide.
Standout: Acetyl Hexapeptide-37
Acetyl Hexapeptide-37 is a premium firming peptide typically found in high-end anti-aging skincare. Finding it in a $22 formula is rare — and it's one of the strongest reasons this moisturizer delivers visible improvement in skin firmness and elasticity over time.

Skincare for Skin That’s Lived.
If you're tired of big promises and products that overpromise and underdeliver — you're exactly who Zafra was built for. Simple routines. Thoughtful formulas. No miracles — just clean ingredients designed to help you feel like yourself again.
When should I apply the Hydrating Face Moisturizer in my routine?
Apply it as the final step of your morning routine, after cleansing and your serum. It's designed to seal in everything your serum just delivered — locking hydration into the skin before you start your day. In the evening, replace it with the Zafra Detox Nightwear Cream, which is formulated specifically for overnight repair.
Is this moisturizer suitable for oily skin?
Yes — and this surprises most people. The formula is built on a squalane base, which is a plant-derived oil that mimics your skin's natural sebum. It's non-comedogenic, meaning it won't clog pores, and it absorbs quickly without leaving a greasy finish. Oily skin actually responds well to lightweight, non-stripping moisturizers like this one.
What is Acetyl Hexapeptide-37 and why does it matter?
Acetyl Hexapeptide-37 is a firming peptide that supports skin elasticity and reduces the appearance of fine lines over time. It's a premium-grade ingredient typically found in high-end anti-aging skincare — finding it in a $22 formula is uncommon, and it's one of the strongest reasons this moisturizer delivers visible improvement in skin firmness with consistent use.
Can I use this moisturizer morning and evening?
You can — but for evening use we recommend pairing it with or replacing it with the Zafra Detox Nightwear Cream instead. The Night Cream is specifically formulated with overnight repair actives that work best during your skin's natural repair cycle. Using both as designed — Moisturizer in the AM, Night Cream in the PM — gives your skin the right ingredients at the right time.
Does this moisturizer contain fragrance?
Yes — it contains fragrance compounds including Hexyl Cinnamal, Limonene, Linalool, and Citronellol, which are listed in the full ingredient list. If you have highly sensitive or fragrance-reactive skin, we recommend doing a patch test on your inner arm before first full use and monitoring for any reaction over 24 hours.

Nice hydration, but scent is slightly strong The lotion leaves my skin feeling smooth and nourished throughout the afternoon. However, the light fragrance is a bit noticeable if you prefer totally scent-free products. It is a decent daily moisturizer if your skin is not overly sensitive to scents.
Great morning lotion under makeup I love using this moisturizer right before putting on my daily makeup. It keeps my face hydrated through long work hours without making my skin look shiny or oily. I am giving it four stars only because I wish the bottle had a pump top.
Solid daily moisturizer This cream gives my skin a nice, healthy glow without making me look greasy. The formula feels very smooth and helps keep my face soft through long hours in the office AC. I will definitely reorder when my current jar runs out.
Good moisturizer, but a bit light for very dry skin This moisturizer absorbs quickly and leaves zero greasy feeling on my face. It works well for warm weather, but my skin needs something heavier during dry days. It is a solid daily option if you prefer lightweight hydration.
Deep hydration that lasts all day long I have tried many face creams over the years, but this formula really stands out for daily use. The Aloe-Infused Water and Hyaluronic Acid leave my face feeling soft and comfortable right away. I apply it every morning after washing my face, and it sinks in almost instantly. It never feels heavy or greasy, even when I am out in the heat. My skin looks noticeably plumper, healthier, and smoother after just two weeks of use. The vitamins seem to help calm down my rough patches and keep my moisture barrier happy. It layers perfectly with my daily sunscreen without rolling off or clogging my pores. This has easily become a must-have step in my morning skin routine!
Very soothing on my skin The Chamomile and Niacinamide help keep my face calm and clear. It absorbs fast and leaves my skin feeling refreshed every single morning. It is one of the best daily lotions I have used!
