Modere Day Lotion: the combination skin moisturiser — balanced, protective, energising
Disodium ATP — cellular energy for skin
ATP (adenosine triphosphate) is the energy currency of every cell in the human body. Applying disodium ATP topically delivers cellular fuel directly to skin cells — supporting the energy-dependent repair and regeneration processes that keep skin looking healthy and youthful.
Zinc oxide — natural mineral sun protection
Zinc oxide is a physical sunscreen mineral that sits on the skin surface and reflects UV rays rather than absorbing them — providing immediate broad-spectrum UVA and UVB protection without the chemical absorption concerns of synthetic sunscreen filters.
Pea extract — unique skin-energy botanical
Pisum sativum (pea) extract provides naturally occurring vitamins and minerals from one of the most nutrient-dense plant sources — a unique addition that distinguishes this formula from standard combination skin moisturisers.
Why combination skin is the most challenging skin type — and why most moisturisers make it worse
Combination skin — the most common skin type among New Zealand adults — presents a genuine challenge. The T-zone (forehead, nose, chin) overproduces sebum, creating shine and enlarged pores. The cheek areas are often dry or normal. Most moisturisers are formulated for either dry or oily skin, meaning they either over-hydrate the T-zone (making shine worse) or under-hydrate the cheeks (leaving them tight and flaky). The combination skin moisturiser requires a specifically balanced formulation.
The ideal combination skin moisturiser is lightweight and non-comedogenic (doesn’t block pores) to avoid worsening T-zone congestion, while providing enough hydration and emolliency for dry cheek areas. Modere Day Lotion is specifically formulated for this balance — jojoba’s sebum-mimicking properties regulate rather than block, avocado provides dry-area richness without heaviness, and the overall lightweight texture prevents T-zone congestion.
Formulated without 2,500+ potentially harmful ingredients — no parabens, no phthalates, no PEGs, no synthetic colorants. Cruelty-free, vegan-friendly (unless noted).
Ingredients in Modere Day Lotion NZ | Combination Skin SPF Moisturiser 50ml
Clean label — every ingredient earns its place.
| Ingredient | Role | What it brings |
|---|---|---|
| Zinc oxide Physical mineral sunscreen | Broad-spectrum UV protection | Physical (not chemical) sunscreen that sits on the skin surface and reflects UVA and UVB rays. Broad-spectrum protection without chemical sunscreen filter absorption concerns. Also has mild sebum-absorbing properties. |
| Jojoba seed oil Simmondsia chinensis | Sebum-regulating oil | Technically a liquid wax that closely mirrors the composition of human sebum. Signals oil glands to reduce excess sebum production via negative feedback — making it the ideal oil for oily and combination skin. |
| Avocado oil Persea gratissima | Rich dry-area nourishment | Rich in oleic acid and fat-soluble vitamins — provides the richer nourishment that dry cheek areas need without the heaviness that would worsen the T-zone. |
| Pea extract Pisum sativum | Skin-energising botanicals | Nutrient-dense pea extract providing naturally occurring vitamins and minerals — a distinctive inclusion providing cellular vitality support. |
| Disodium ATP Adenosine triphosphate | Cellular energy molecule | ATP is the molecule that powers every cellular process. Topical disodium ATP delivers cellular fuel to skin — supporting the energy-dependent processes of skin repair, barrier maintenance and collagen synthesis. |
| Meadowfoam seed oil Limnanthes alba | Lightweight moisture retention | One of the most stable plant oils with a unique triglyceride profile that mirrors skin’s own moisture barrier — lightweight yet effective moisture retention without greasiness. |
| Glycerin + panthenol | Hydration and barrier | Humectant and vitamin B5 combination for moisture retention and skin barrier support — particularly important for the dry areas of combination skin. |
How Modere Day Lotion NZ | Combination Skin SPF Moisturiser 50ml works
Zinc oxide provides immediate UV protection
Applied in the morning, zinc oxide’s physical UV-reflecting particles are immediately active — no waiting period required unlike chemical sunscreens.
Jojoba regulates sebum via negative feedback
Jojoba’s sebum-like composition signals skin’s oil glands that sebum is already present — moderating production in the T-zone and preventing the midday shine that over-moisturisation causes.
Disodium ATP energises cellular repair
Topically applied ATP is taken up by skin cells — supplementing the cellular energy supply for repair and regeneration processes that require ATP.
Avocado and meadowfoam nourish dry areas
The richer fatty acid profile of avocado provides what dry cheek areas need, while meadowfoam’s moisture-retaining properties prevent TEWL throughout the day.

Is Modere Day Lotion NZ | Combination Skin SPF Moisturiser 50ml right for you?

- Anyone who finds standard moisturisers either too heavy or too light

Pro tips
Apply SPF50+ on top for full outdoor protection
The zinc oxide provides base UV protection — on days with significant sun exposure, add a dedicated SPF50+ sunscreen over the Day Lotion.
Apply serum first
Antioxidant Gel or CellProof Serum before Day Lotion — active serums penetrate better without the Day Lotion’s protective barrier in the way.
Blot T-zone with tissue after 10 minutes
If T-zone shine develops during the day, a clean tissue blot removes surface oil without removing the moisturiser from dry areas.
