Product FAQ
Our Original & Rich Cocktail use rock samphire, a natural retinol alternative that supports collagen production and improves skin thickness, without the irritation, peeling, or sensitivity that can come with traditional retinol. In clinical testing, it showed a –16.5% reduction in crow’s feet over 42 days, which is amazing for a gentler ingredient. We formulated it as a retinol replacement for sensitive or barrier-compromised skin. That said, if you’re loving your current retinol, you don’t necessarily have to stop. You could either switch fully for a gentler daily approach, or continue using retinol a few nights a week and use The Rich Cocktail on alternate nights and every morning. It’s designed for daily use — morning and night — and is barrier-supportive, antioxidant-rich, and focused on long-term skin health without the downtime.
The Cocktail helps achieve youthful skin by delivering long-lasting hydration and utilizing ingredients like Astaxanthin, Rock Samphire, and Matrixyl Synthe'6™ to protect, smooth, and firm the skin, reducing signs of aging such as fine lines.
Yes, this product is suitable for those with eczema or rosacea. However, as with all skincare products, we suggest doing a patch test first if you have concerns.
Yes, The Cocktail is safe for use during pregnancy and breastfeeding, just like our Cleanser, Powder, Juice, and Nectar.
The Rich Cream is a more intensely moisturising version of our original Cocktail, with this in mind it is best suited to dry, combination and normal skin types. If your skin tends to be on the oily side, we’d recommend our original Cocktail Cream. What age? Because collagen starts to decline in our mid twenties, prevention is key. But the powerful collagen-boosting ingredients make it perfect for more mature skin as well!

I don’t think I’ve ever used a moisturiser that truly makes a visible difference to my skin - this one does! I have super dry, dehydrated skin. I’ve been using this cream AM&PM (followed by the oil at night) for about 2-3 months and my skin looks SO glowy, which is usually impossible for me!! I instantly loved it but I can now also see the long term difference clearly: my skin is way calmer, way more hydrated always (even when I wake up or at the end of the day when other moisturisers’ effects run out), consistently glowy and more even-textured. Believe the hype!

Wearing less make up it’s so good
My favourite moisturiser - I tried the original version of this and found it too drying but the rich version is perfect. I’m finding I’m wearing less makeup as my skin tone looks so much more even. I’ve been using it for about 4 weeks and already noticing a difference!

i didn't realise the cocktail could get any better
i previously have loved the original cocktail cream but have tried the rich cream and also fallen in love. I love tanning during the summer months, and the rich cream is so much more hydrating for my dry skin!! deffs recommend for anyone who is looking for a super nourishing night cream.

Instant relief
I've been using this gorgeous cocktail cream for a week and I can already see how much it is helping my sensitive skin. From day one it hydrated it and calmed it down right away. Rich texture and still not oily at all! Looking forward to longer term benefits.
