"I cannot believe it fixed 90% of the bumps and I haven't felt so happy about my skin and the confidence is back. Thank You for saving my skin and the "after" picture I attached was 3 days after I used the products."

“The Flawless Moisturiser Intense has become my ultimate skin saviour. Whenever my skin flares up, whether it’s red, irritated, reacting to something, or my barrier feels compromised, this cream calms and restores it every time. It’s one of the few products I completely trust, a genuine holy grail for my menopausal skin, and I’m so grateful to have it in my routine. I never want to be without it.”

We sent Flawless Moisturiser Intense to our trusted community ahead of launch to tell us their honest opinions. The feedback we received was incredible...
Next Level Hydration
"If I could give this product 6 stars I would! I have so much good to say about it, I could go on forever! I use both of Dr Sam’s other moisturisers and love them both for different times, but after having been on holiday in the sun and flying my skin is parched - as it always at this time of year, and gets easily irritated. I have used this product morning and night for nearly a month now and from the first application my skin felt calmer and nourished."

Calms Redness
"Flawless Moisturiser Intense immediately calms my reactive skin taking away the redness. Will be perfect for the winter weather."
Denise, ★★★★★
Supports your Actives
"I love that the Flawless Moisturiser Intense is rich and yet it absorbs really quickly into the skin, leaving my skin hydrated but not sticky! I’m finding it easier to use actives and even makeup goes on more smoothly."
Sobia, ★★★★★
Works with Make-up & SPF
"I loved it. It's really moisturising. Normally when products are this moisturising they start off well but then block your pores, this one just keeps giving! It doesn't block your pores. It makes my skin glow. I can use it after my Brightly serum under my makeup!! It's fantastic!"
Fiona, ★★★★★
Keeps Your Pores Clear
"I don’t think I will find a better moisturiser than this. It gives me all the hydration without blocking my pores. I also use this like an eye cream, it has totally changed the crepe looking textured skin under my eyes. My skin has never felt better while using Dr. Sam products. This will be bought on repeat along with the Jelly Cleanser, Neutralising Gel and Vitamin C NAD+"

Most Asked Questions
What is a barrier repair cream?
A barrier repair cream is a skincare product formulated to strengthen and restore the skin's natural protective barrier, promoting hydration and defending against environmental stressors.
What is NAD+?
The amazing thing about your skin is that it knows how to repair itself, but it gets harder as we age. Repair takes energy, and a critical energy molecule – that’s NAD+ – starts to tank, affecting our cell batteries.
But with Flawless Moisturiser Intense, we can start to repair the skin from the inside-out. Using a breakthrough ingredient called sunflower shoot extract (SSE), we can address that struggling battery and help recharge it, boosting levels of NAD+.
How much Flawless Moisturiser Intense should I use?
Use as little or as much as you need throughout the day.
Can I combine Flawless Moisturiser Intense with my other Dr Sam’s products?
Absolutely, it's the perfect way to prep your skin on your first actives journey, especially if it's sensitive or you’re starting a retinoid for the very first time! Find out how to best structure your Dr Sam System with our Routine Finder.
