Active Moisturizer

50ml / 1.7oz

A moisturizer-serum hybrid combining rich hydrating factors, protective antioxidants, and skin-renewing acids to reinvigorate skin in a single step. Designed with normal, combination and oily skin in mind.

THREE BENEFITS, ONE TOOL

Hydrate: A restorative complex of replenishing actives led by Glycerin and Hyaluronic Acid moisturize and nourish skin.

Protect: A fortifying mix of complementary antioxidants anchored by Niacinamide, Vitamin C and Bakuchiol, combat free radicals, improve barrier strength, and reduce signs of aging.

Renew: A gentle combination of Glycolic and Salicylic Acids reduce dead skin buildup, remove impurities, and refine skin appearance.

A scientifically sound approach to formula development and ingredient selection, prioritizing actives with proven benefits, sourced in their effective state, and tested against the strictest standards.

NIACINAMIDE: AKA Vitamin B3, a multi-beneficial ingredient that fights acne, soothes inflammation, increases barrier strength, and improves skin texture.

GLYCOLIC ACID: An Alpha Hydroxy Acid (“AHA”), behaves as a water-soluble exfoliant, renewing the skin's surface while promoting the production of moisture-retaining skin structures.

TETRAHEXYLDECYL ASCORBATE: A potent form of the antioxidant Vitamin C, neutralizes free radicals, increases collagen production, and brightens skin.

SALICYLIC ACID: A Beta Hydroxy Acid (“BHA”), behaves as an oil-soluble, pore-cleansing exfoliant, reduces blackheads, prevents acne, and soothes inflammation.

GLYCERIN: One of the body’s Natural Moisturizing Factors, protects the skin barrier, boosts and extends skin hydration, and prevents water loss.

BAKUCHIOL: Unofficially known as a “plant-based retinoid”, works as an anti-aging antioxidant, increasing skin firmness while reducing wrinkles and photodamage.

CAFFEINE: A protective antioxidant, reduces free radical formation, soothes and reduces redness, and improves skin tightness and firmness.

HYALURONIC ACID: One of the body’s Natural Moisturizing Factors, behaves like a sponge to boost hydration, prevent water loss, and pump water-soluble actives across the skin barrier.

DEVELOPMENT NOTES: Less but better. A product reflecting our desire to reduce the complexity of our skincare routines, without reducing the benefits of an active approach to skin. A daily solution delivering the benefits of a moisturizer as well as a gentle dose of the key actives we’d applied in concentrated form. An active product to anchor the routine. An Active Moisturizer.

DETAILS & USAGE: Experience: Awakening, Hydrating, Smoothing, and Softening Application: Day and night, gently massage an almond-sized amount onto your face and neck. A product that plays as well with others as it does by itself, we recommend applying to recently cleansed, dry or damp skin following any less viscous.

Margin creates active ingredient rich skincare solutions designed to elevate your edges, or more simply, effective luxury.

Using packaging as a canvas and working with artists who inspire them, the brand showcases works as artist-editioned sleeves which are updated periodically, never to be repeated.
