Dermaceutic Hyal Ceutic

Oily skin is often dehydrated skin — producing excess oil to compensate for the moisture it lacks. Hyal Ceutic's 5.5% dual-weight Hyaluronic Acid system hydrates at both the surface and deeper dermal layers simultaneously, while 10% Aloe Vera Gel soothes and 1% Jojoba Oil seals without congestion. Lightweight enough for oily and combination skin. Non-comedogenic. Fragrance free. Vegan. Safe during pregnancy.

About This Product

Is Dermaceutic Hyal Ceutic right for you?

  • Your skin is oily or combination but still feels tight or dry
  • Heavier moisturisers feel congesting or cause breakouts
  • You use retinols or AHAs and need a hydrating buffer
  • You want fragrance-free hydration safe during pregnancy
  • You are looking for a non-comedogenic moisturiser that will not block pores

How Dermaceutic Hyal Ceutic works — the science

The misconception that oily skin does not need moisture is one of the most damaging beliefs in skincare. Oily skin frequently overproduces sebum precisely because it is dehydrated — the sebaceous glands compensate for water loss by producing more oil. Adding moisture to oily skin can actually reduce oiliness over time.

Hyal Ceutic uses a 5.5% dual-weight Hyaluronic Acid system — high-molecular-weight HA sits on the skin surface and prevents transepidermal water loss, while low-molecular-weight HA penetrates deeper to hydrate at the dermal level. 10% Aloe Vera Gel provides immediate soothing for skin reactive from AHA or retinol use. 1% Jojoba Oil provides a lipid seal structurally similar to the skin's own sebum — absorbs cleanly without congestion.

What you will notice — and when

Immediately: Skin feels hydrated and comfortable without heaviness or greasiness. Week 1–2: Skin less reactive to other actives. Tightness after cleansing resolved. Week 3–4: Oiliness may begin to moderate as dehydration signal reduces. Week 6+: Improved texture and more balanced oil production.

How to use Dermaceutic Hyal Ceutic

  1. Apply morning and/or evening after cleansing and any treatment serums
  2. Apply to slightly damp skin — Hyaluronic Acid binds ambient moisture for improved results
  3. Pat gently across face and neck — do not rub
  4. Allow to absorb before applying SPF (morning) or additional treatment (evening)

Dr. Bangalee's clinical perspective

Dr. Bangalee RecommendsHyal Ceutic is my most-recommended moisturiser for patients with oily and combination skin following an active skincare programme. One of the most common causes of poor tolerance to actives is an impaired moisture barrier — Hyal Ceutic restores that barrier without adding weight or comedogenic risk. It is also the moisturiser I recommend during pregnancy for patients who want safe, effective hydration.

What our patients say

I have oily skin and avoided moisturiser for years. Dr. Bangalee convinced me to try Hyal Ceutic. Within a month, my skin is less oily AND less tight. I had no idea dehydration was causing my oil problem.This is the only moisturiser that doesn't break me out. It absorbs completely, leaves no residue, and my skin looks better since I started using it.I use this after my retinol every evening and it has completely eliminated the flakiness and irritation I used to experience.

Frequently asked questions

Will Hyal Ceutic make oily skin even oilier?No. Hyal Ceutic is lightweight, non-comedogenic, and absorbs without leaving residue. For many oily skin patients, properly hydrating the skin reduces oiliness over time because the dehydration signal driving sebum overproduction is removed.
Is it safe during pregnancy?Yes. Hyal Ceutic is fragrance-free, vegan, and safe during pregnancy and breastfeeding.
Can I use this with retinol?Absolutely — Hyal Ceutic is the ideal partner for any retinol product. Apply retinol first, allow to absorb for 10–15 minutes, then apply Hyal Ceutic as your moisturiser.
