Dr Hauschka Apricot Day Cream, your questions answered
Q1. Who is the Dr Hauschka Apricot Day Cream suited for?
Normal to dry skin, particularly skin that feels tight, dull, or lacks softness. Apricot kernel oil is high in oleic acid, which nourishes and supports the skin barrier without heaviness.
Q2. Is it safe to apply close to the eye area?
Apply to the face and orbital bone. Avoid direct application to the eyelid and lash margin. Use your dedicated eye cream for the immediate periocular zone.
Q3. Is Dr Hauschka biodynamic and NATRUE certified?
Yes. NATRUE certified, using biodynamic and organic plant ingredients. No synthetic fragrance, no parabens, no mineral oil throughout the range.
Q4. When in my routine does it go?
After cleansing, toning, and any serum. Apply morning and evening as your final moisturising step.
Q5. Why is an Eyehouse optometry brand stocking a day cream?
Because periocular skin health is part of eye health. Reactions to face products frequently manifest around the eye first. Stocking clean skincare aligned with the Eyehouse EFR means our customers can source products we have reviewed.
Q6. What is the difference between the apricot day cream and the quince day cream at Dr Hauschka?
Both suit normal skin, but apricot focuses on nourishment and barrier support for skin that feels dry or tight. Quince focuses on brightening and complexion evenness for skin that looks dull or uneven. Choose based on your primary concern.
Q7. Is the Dr Hauschka Apricot Day Cream suitable for mature skin?
Yes, particularly for mature skin that has become drier with age. The oleic acid in apricot kernel oil closely resembles the skin's natural sebum, which makes it particularly compatible with mature skin that produces less of its own oil.
