Is it possible to help your skin remain young looking? We think the best way to keep your skin looking its best is to moisturise daily using creams that are high in antioxidants, maintain a healthy lifestyle without smoking, and to minimize sun exposure.

Hydrate and protect your skin with our non-greasy face cream formula. We use clear Zinc and Red Raspberry Seed Oil for natural sun protection and it won’t leave you looking white as a ghost after application. Using Zinc means the cream is a bit thicker than you may be used to, however, we find it spreads really easily too and sits well under makeup. Zinc acts as a physical barrier to UV rays rather than absorbing them like UV filters do. We urge you to do a little bit of a Google to learn more about UV filter chemicals so you can make a more informed choice about the sunscreen you choose to you, and why.

SPF 15 protects your skin from 94% of UV radiation and will provide protection for 4 hours for someone who would normally burn in 15 minutes. This hydrating moisturiser is perfect for every-day use. Apply cream to clean skin before sun exposure.

Because we make our products for our families, we have a strict ingredient philosophy that excludes ingredients like Parabens and Phenoxyethanol.

We show all of the ingredients we use in our products on our website, not just the pretty ones. That way you know exactly what's in each one, and can get in touch if you have any more questions.

Please be aware that the ingredients we use in our formulas may be updated occasionally and therefore vary from time to time. Please refer to the ingredient list on the product packaging for the most up-to-date and relevant list of ingredients.

Is your sunscreen reef safe?

Yes! We use Zinc Oxide with a median particle size of 0.31 microns (310 nanometres), with all particles between 0.25 and 0.35 microns. Particles larger than 100 nanometres are generally considered safe for both humans and the reef, so our sunscreen won’t be ingested by marine life or harm coral.

We also avoid chemical UV filters like Oxybenzone and Octinoxate, which are known to damage coral reefs.

Do I need to wear sunscreen every day?

We say yes please! Even on cloudy, overcast, rainy days and during winter, you should be wearing sunscreen every day for skin cancer prevention. Not wearing sunscreen every day is one of the leading causes for premature ageing too!

Is it safe for sensitive skin?

We made this formula with sensitive types in mind - no fragrance, alcohol, essential oils or synthetic preservatives. Just hydrating, gentle ingredients your skin will love.

How does SPF actually work?

Think of SPF like a sun-shield rating. SPF 15 blocks about 94% of UV rays, SPF 30 blocks around 97% and SPF 40 blocks 98%. Not a huge jump percentage-wise, but higher SPFs need more active ingredients, which can make them feel thicker on the skin.

SPF 15 will provide protection for 4 hours for someone who would normally burn in 15 minutes. SPF 30 provides protection for 8 hours of sun.

Real talk though? The amount of protection you get comes down to how much and how often you apply it. Please apply generously and reapply if you’re out and about!

What’s the difference between physical and chemical sunscreens?

There are two types of sun protection:

• Physical (a.k.a. mineral): Like Zinc Oxide and Titanium Dioxide, these sit on top of the skin and reflect UV rays away like tiny mirrors or umbrellas.
• Chemical (a.k.a. UV filters): These absorb UV rays into the skin and convert them into heat. They’re always synthetic and not always kind on sensitive skin, so we skip them.

We prefer to use Zinc Oxide, which acts as a gentle, natural shield. It’s also great for sensitive skin.

How do antioxidants work?

Happy you asked! One part of ageing is caused by “free radical damage”. Free radicals are molecules that have become short of an electron. To become stable, free radicals seek out other molecules and can take an electron from them. This can cause cell damage leading to skin ageing, among other things. Supplying antioxidants to the skin helps mop up these pesky free radicals so they leave your cells alone. The difficult part is to ensure that the antioxidants get deep enough into the skin to function. That’s why we choose the ones we use as they are known to be able to penetrate into the skin and get to work.

What ingredients do you avoid when making a moisturiser?

There's lots of things you won't find in this cream (or any of our other products) because they were all formulated for family members and close friends. This includes Paraffin and Mineral Oil which derive from petroleum, but are commonly found in commercial moisturisers like Sorbolene. We don’t think putting the stuff that goes into our cars on our skin is the healthiest thing we can do.

We also don’t use any synthetic preservatives such as Parabens and Phenoxyethanol, although they're pretty common too, including with a few brands that claim to be natural (you know who you are!). We avoid a lot of other things too, way too many to list here. We also don't use any useless, trendy ingredients like stem cells from Swiss apples or super power jellyfish DNA, just natural, effective ingredients for healthy skin.

Why does my bottle no longer have a straw?

For a better user experience, and to get the absolute most of your MooGoo ‘goo-dness out of the bottle, we’ve taken on our customer feedback and have launched a new and improved Airless pump bottle for our 75g Face Creams range, and Argireline® Serum. On first use, make sure the product top is on tight and keep pumping until you get product. So, what actually is an airless pump bottle? Unlike jars and bottles with an internal straw, an airless pump bottle works on a vacuum. As you pump the product, a disk at the bottom of the bottle slowly moves up (the vacuum effect) allowing the cream to stay in contact with the mechanism ‘airless’. If you have any further troubles, please contact our friendly customer service team for assistance.
