The Pioneer Mattifying Moisturizer

Previously called Geranium & Thistle Rebalancing Day Cream

This Product Is: a hydrating daily facial cream

Good for: all skin types, especially combination, oily and sensitive skin

Why We Love It: Pai The Pioneer Mattifying Moisturizer is formulated to help clear and rebalance oily, T-zone skin, using only the cleanest organic ingredients. This non-greasy facial moisturizer helps to smooth and hydrate combination skin so skin may appear brighter. High levels of Essential Fatty Acids in organic Thistle and Borage oil helps to soothe skin while working to even out skin tone. The moisturizer results in a matte velvet finish, making a perfect base for make-up. This product is free from drying alcohols and beeswax.

Morning Routine: Apply to clean, dry skin on your face and neck every morning.
Evening Routine: If you skin is particularly prone to break-outs, we recommend cleansing with our detergent-free Camellia & Rose Cleanser and exfoliating Muslin Face Cloth before bed. Do not not apply a moisturizer - instead allow your skin to breathe and rebalance itself over-night.
Storage: Store in a cool dry place. Use within 6 months of opening.

Essential Oils

Essential Oils

Authentic essential oils are physically extracted by steam or expression (cold pressing) of the skin of the fruit. Essential oils have not been chemically altered (via reaction, solvent extraction) from their natural state.

Certified Organic Fragrance

Certified Organic Fragrance

A blend of essential oils (see above) derived from plants that are grown in accordance with the USDA National Organic Program.

Natural Fragrance

Natural Fragrance

Natural fragrances are mixtures of aromatic raw materials. As opposed to a whole essential oil found in a plant, these chemicals are physically isolated from natural compounds, then blended together to create a scent. If only natural isolates are used, companies can declare the scent “natural.”

Naturally-Derived Fragrance

Naturally-Derived Fragrance

Fragrance ingredients that have been extracted using solvents (alcohol, petrochemicals, vegetable oils), or extracted by fermentation, or ingredients which may have a natural component but have been significantly processed.

Synthetic Fragrance

Unfragranced/Unscented

Ingredients which are new molecules, made in a laboratory. The majority of synthetic constituent ingredients are from petroleum byproducts. Synthetic “nature-identical” ingredients fall into this category as well. Credo allows synthetic fragrances as long as there are no Dirty List components.

What's Behind "Fragrance"?

US law does not require that companies be transparent about the ingredients in fragrance/parfum. Credo believes in your right-to-know. We require all brands to categorize the fragrance in each product (see chart above), and encourage brands to fully disclose all scent ingredients.

All products are cruelty-free and formulated without ingredients on The Dirty List™️. At Credo, "clean" goes even deeper. Learn more.
