FAQs

CAN I USE OMEGA WATER CREAM DAILY? Yes. Use it AM and PM, every day.

CAN I LAYER IT WITH OTHER ACTIVES? Yes. Omega Water Cream plays well with all actives such as Retinol & AHAs. Layer freely.

CAN I USE IT WITH OTHER NIACINAMIDE PRODUCTS? You can—but start slow and patch test first to avoid overdoing it.

I USE CERAMIDE NIGHT TREATMENT. DO I NEED THIS TOO? They’re different. Use them together or alternate for full barrier support.

WHO IS THIS BEST FOR? Anyone. All skin types benefit—especially if hydration and barrier health are the goal.

WHAT IS BETAINE? A moisture-balancing molecule that helps skin hold onto hydration.

WHERE DOES BETAINE COME FROM? It’s derived from sugar beets.

WHAT ARE CERAMIDES? Lipids that strengthen your skin barrier and keep it resilient.

WHAT ARE OMEGA FATTY ACIDS? Essential nutrients that lock in hydration and reinforce your skin’s surface.

HOW MUCH NIACINAMIDE IS IN IT? 5%—a gold-standard concentration for oil control and tone improvement.

WHAT’S THE PH LEVEL? 5.0—skin-friendly and barrier-respecting.

HYDRATING VS MOISTURISING—WHAT’S THE DIFFERENCE? Hydrating = water. Moisturising = oil. Dehydrated skin lacks water. Dry skin lacks oil. You may need both.

WHAT IS A WATER CREAM? A water-based, oil-free moisturizer with a gel texture. Delivers hydration without heaviness.

DEHYDRATED SKIN VS DRY SKIN—WHAT’S THE DIFFERENCE? Dehydrated skin lacks water—looks dull, feels tight. Dry skin lacks oil—feels rough or flaky. Not the same thing.

WHEN WILL I SEE RESULTS? Give it up to 6 weeks. Skin needs time to turn over. Be consistent—don’t overuse.

IS IT VEGAN? Yes. Certified by The Vegan Society. No animal derivatives.

DOES IT CONTAIN ALCOHOL OR FRAGRANCE? No alcohol. No fragrance. No nonsense.

IS THIS SAFE FOR THOSE WHO ARE PREGNANT OR BREASTFEEDING? Yes. Safe to use throughout pregnancy and breastfeeding. Your guide to pregnancy safe skincare >

Reviews Summary

Customers say this cream offers a lightweight, fast-absorbing formula that leaves skin feeling hydrated. Many reviews highlight its non-sticky texture and suitability for daily use, especially during warmer months. While most find it provides good moisture without feeling heavy, some note it may be too light for very dry skin. The cream works well under makeup and gives skin a fresh appearance. Frequent comments address its versatility for different skin types, though a few users mention it can feel greasy. Most praise its gentle formula, with many becoming repeat purchasers.

Good hydrating moisturiser
I bought this as I’d run out of my £60+ normal one. I wanted to see if it rated as well as a more expensive type. This is hydrating to use, making my skin feel soft & supple. You don’t need a lot, it doesn’t pill either which is good! I’m pleased so far. But want to use it for a couple of months to see if it’s worth a complete swap.
