The non-greasy formula is suitable for all skin types, including sensitive, and it taps into the power of six forms of hyaluronic acid to intensely hydrate the skin. The potent gel-cream moisturizer also makes the most of [brightening niacinamide](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hydrating-sorbet-cream) to balance out the production of oil, while rose myrtle fruit extract lends its antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, antioxidant and antimicrobial benefits. Other carefully selected ingredients help to support cell turnover, soothing and calming, so that dark spots are diminished and the overall complexion is enhanced with a single product. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.4/10 - Popularity: 41% | Activity: 49% | Freshness: 11% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Gen Z - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/fashion) > [Cosmetics](https://www.trendhunter.com/cosmetics) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Multi-functional Skincare Products:** Opportunity for brands to create more multi-purpose products like Smood's Problem Solver Gel Cream Moisturizer. - **Antibacterial Skincare:** Opportunity for brands to incorporate antibacterial ingredients, like rose myrtle fruit extract, into their skincare products for acne-fighting benefits. - **Hyaluronic Acid Skincare:** Opportunity for brands to utilize multiple forms of hyaluronic acid for intense hydration in their skincare products. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Beauty and Personal Care:** Brands in the beauty and personal care industry can incorporate the trends of multi-functional skincare, antibacterial skincare, and hyaluronic acid skincare into their product lines. - **Pharmaceuticals:** There is potential for pharmaceutical companies to develop more effective acne-fighting products like Smood's Problem Solver Gel Cream Moisturizer. - **Medical Cosmetics:** Medical cosmetic companies can explore the usage of rose myrtle fruit extract and other specialized ingredients for skincare with acne-fighting properties. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Complexion-Improving Lightweight Moisturizers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/brightening-gel-cream.md) - [Clarifying Gel Moisturizers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/clarifying-gel-moisturizer.md) - [Calming Gel Moisturizers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/drgs-red-blemish-clear-soothing-cream.md) - [Botanical Retinol Gel Creams](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/botanical-retinol.md) - [Encapsulated Niacinamide Moisturizers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lightweight-gelcream.md) - [Gel-Cream Collagen Moisturizers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/collagen-moisturizer.md) - [Daily Acne-Targeting Skincare Products](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/acne-awareness-month.md) - [Rebalancing Acne-Fighting Creams](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/uriage-hysac-3rgul.md) - [Hydrating Hybrid Creams](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/moisturizer-with-hyaluronic-acid.md)
