Dew All Day Moisture Restore Cream (AU)

Nutricentials Dew All Day Moisture Restore Cream is Nu Skin's richest Nutricentials moisturiser — a barrier-repair cream that locks in hydration for up to 24 hours. In consumer testing, 92% of participants with dry skin reported significantly improved moisture levels after 2 weeks of use. The formula targets transepidermal water loss (TEWL), the primary mechanism behind dry, flaky, tight-feeling skin.

What Makes Dew All Day Different

The formula combines the Bioadaptive Botanical Complex (shared across the Nutricentials range) with a lipid-barrier repair system containing ceramides and plant-derived oils. Ceramides are the mortar between skin cells — when they're depleted (by UV exposure, harsh cleansers, or low humidity), water escapes and skin dries out. A 2011 review in the Journal of Clinical and Aesthetic Dermatology confirmed that ceramide-containing moisturisers restore barrier function more effectively than petrolatum-based occlusive creams.

The cream texture is rich but not greasy — it absorbs within 2 minutes and leaves a semi-matte finish. This matters for daytime use under sunscreen, where an overly occlusive cream can cause sunscreen to slide.

Key Ingredients

Ceramide Complex: Lipid molecules identical to those naturally found in the skin barrier — they fill the gaps between corneocytes (skin cells) to prevent water loss.

Shea Butter: A rich emollient that provides immediate comfort to dry, tight skin while supporting the barrier repair process.

Bioadaptive Botanical Complex: Adaptogens (rhodiola, maral root, chaga, Siberian ginseng) that help skin cells respond to environmental stress — relevant in Australian climates where dry indoor heating alternates with outdoor UV exposure.

How Australians Are Using Dew All Day

Dry skin in Australia is particularly common during winter in Melbourne, Canberra, and Hobart, where cold winds and indoor heating create a double assault on the moisture barrier. Dew All Day works best applied to slightly damp skin (within 60 seconds of toning) to trap additional moisture. For severely dry skin, layering Nutricentials Pumps Vitamin C + Collagen underneath provides both hydration and anti-ageing benefits.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this too heavy for summer?
In humid climates, you may find it more suitable as a night cream during summer months. In dry or air-conditioned environments, it's comfortable year-round.

Can I use it around the eyes?
The formula is gentle enough for the orbital area, but if you experience sensitivity, apply a dedicated eye cream instead.

How does it differ from Moisturize Me?
Dew All Day focuses on barrier repair with ceramides and plant oils. Moisturize Me Intense is thicker and more occlusive, designed for very dry skin that needs maximum moisture retention. Dew All Day is the better choice for dry skin that still needs to layer products (serum + moisturiser + SPF).
