When it comes to skincare, moisturisers are often underestimated. Many people focus on serums or active treatments while overlooking the essential role of hydration in maintaining youthful, healthy skin. Yet moisturisers are more than just a finishing touch—they’re the backbone of a strong skincare routine.
At Pt78 Skin and Body, we believe moisturisers are the unsung heroes of anti-ageing skincare. Whether you turn to the scientifically advanced formulations from SkinCeuticals or the naturally derived blends from Pt78, the right moisturiser can transform your skin’s long-term health and appearance.
Why Moisturiser Is Non-Negotiable in Anti-Ageing
Hydration is one of the most fundamental aspects of skin health. Without enough moisture, skin becomes dull, fragile, and prone to irritation. Over time, dehydration accelerates fine lines, weakens the skin barrier, and amplifies the signs of ageing.
A good anti-ageing moisturiser does more than just hydrate. It:
Strengthens the skin barrier against environmental aggressors.
Provides antioxidants that neutralise free radicals.
Supports collagen and elastin production.
Smooths fine lines and wrinkles.
Helps lock in the benefits of serums and treatments.
In other words, your moisturiser is not simply a hydrator—it’s a shield, a healer, and a support system for all the other steps in your skincare regimen.
SkinCeuticals: Gold Standard Moisturisers
When dermatologists recommend moisturisers for ageing skin, SkinCeuticals consistently comes up. Their products are developed with clinical research and optimised for real-world results.
This moisturiser is a standout in anti-ageing science. It contains a precise ratio of ceramides, cholesterol, and fatty acids (2:4:2), which helps restore the skin barrier, increase elasticity, and smooth fine lines. Clinical studies show it improves hydration and radiance while supporting the skin’s natural repair processes.
Perfect for dry or compromised skin, this rich cream uses nourishing natural extracts and lipids to restore suppleness and comfort.
A nighttime moisturiser enriched with botanical extracts and alpha hydroxy acids (AHAs), gently exfoliating while hydrating to reveal smoother, brighter skin by morning.
These products represent the science-driven approach of SkinCeuticals—combining hydration with barrier repair and antioxidant protection.
Pt78: Australian Botanical Moisturisers
While SkinCeuticals provides laboratory-backed formulations, Pt78 Skin and Body brings a distinctly Australian approach. Our moisturisers are crafted with Certified Organic and Naturally Derived ingredients, harnessing the power of local botanicals to hydrate, protect, and restore the skin.
Infused with Rosehip Oil, Green Tea Extract, and Davidson Plum, this moisturiser delivers antioxidant support while deeply hydrating the skin. Hyaluronic acid boosts moisture retention, leaving the complexion plump and radiant.
Designed for oily and acne-prone skin, this lightweight formula offers hydration without heaviness. Enriched with Grape Seed Oil, Licorice Root Extract, and Quandong, it balances oil production while keeping pores clear.
Both moisturisers are vegan, cruelty-free, and made in Australia. Free from parabens, mineral oils, artificial fragrances, and microplastics, they reflect Pt78’s commitment to clean and conscious skincare.
Choosing the Right Anti-Ageing Moisturiser
Every skin type has unique needs, but here are some simple guidelines:
For dry, mature skin: Opt for rich creams like Triple Lipid Restore 2:4:2 or Pt78 Moisture+ Hydrating Moisturiser.
For oily or acne-prone skin: Lightweight options like Pt78 Matte+ Balancing Moisturiser or SkinCeuticals Metacell Renewal B3 balance hydration without clogging pores.
For overnight repair: Consider SkinCeuticals Renew Overnight Dry, which gently exfoliates while you sleep.
Remember: moisturiser should always follow your serums, locking in actives like Vitamin C, Retinol, or Hyaluronic Acid for maximum effectiveness.
Combining Moisturiser with Serums for Anti-Ageing Power
The most effective routines pair moisturisers with targeted serums. For example:
Start with SkinCeuticals C E Ferulic Vitamin C Serum in the morning, then follow with Triple Lipid Restore for hydration and barrier repair.
Use Pt78 Refine A Retinol in the evening, then apply Moisture+ Hydrating Moisturiser to calm and support the skin overnight.
Pair Hyaluronic Acid serums like SkinCeuticals Hydrating B5 with any moisturiser to ensure deep hydration.
