What This Moisturiser Does for Your Skin
EPII HPT6 Ultra Cream 5% is a firming moisturiser for skin that has lost some of its natural bounce. It targets the look of hollow areas, softness, and reduced elasticity. The formula centres on two active ingredients, 5% HPT Complex and 2% Matrixyl Synthe'6.
HPT Complex is short for Hydroxypropyl Tetrahydropyrantriol. It works in the skin's deeper layers, where structural support lives. Matrixyl Synthe'6 works closer to the surface, targeting the look of fine lines and uneven texture.
Used together, these two ingredients are meant to support skin from more than one angle. Over time, skin can start to look firmer, smoother, and more resilient. The aim is a gradual improvement with regular use, not an instant change.
This cream sits in EPII's HPT6 range, alongside a matching serum. It was created for people who want their skincare to focus on structural support, not just surface hydration. If your skin feels less springy than it used to, this cream is built with that concern in mind. EPII designs each product around a small set of active ingredients, rather than a long, crowded list.
The Texture and How It Feels
EPII describes this moisturiser as a cushiony cream. It feels soft and light going on, not thick or sticky. Skin absorbs it quickly, so there is no long wait before you can move on with your routine.
The finish is smooth rather than greasy. Because it sinks in fast, this cream layers well under makeup. You can apply it in the morning without worrying about pilling or a heavy after-feel.
The formula is made without alcohol, which keeps the skin comfortable rather than tight or dry. This makes the cream easier to build into a daily routine.
Isododecane and dicaprylyl carbonate help give the cream its light, cushiony spread. Caprylic/capric triglyceride adds a soft, comfortable feel without weighing skin down. The result is a moisturiser that feels rich, never heavy. Propanediol also plays a part in the texture, helping the cream glide on smoothly and evenly.
The Ingredients That Nourish Your Skin
Sodium hyaluronate is a moisture-binding ingredient that helps skin hold onto water, supporting a plumper look. Panthenol, also known as pro-vitamin B5, helps soften the skin and ease feelings of tightness.
Ectoin is included to help support the skin's natural barrier, the layer that keeps moisture in and irritants out. Allantoin works alongside it to help keep the skin surface feeling smooth and comfortable. Both ingredients are common in formulas built around comfort and resilience.
Carnosine and ergothioneine are added as supporting ingredients within the formula. Adenosine is included for its role in supporting a smoother-looking complexion over time.
Glycerin is another key humectant in the formula, helping to draw moisture into the surface of your skin. Sodium hyaluronate and glycerin work together to keep skin feeling soft and hydrated throughout the day.
Every ingredient in this cream was chosen to work alongside the two lead actives, HPT Complex and Matrixyl Synthe'6. Together, they are formulated for firmer, more hydrated, more comfortable-looking skin.
Day, Night, or Both
EPII HPT6 Ultra Cream 5% suits both morning and evening use. In the morning, apply it as the last step before sunscreen, once your skin has fully absorbed any serum underneath.
At night, use it as your final step before you rest. Because it sinks in fast, it will not disturb your sleep. It also will not leave marks on your pillow.
Apply a small, appropriate amount to clean skin and pat gently to help it absorb. There is no need to rub or massage for a long time, a gentle patting motion is enough.
Consistency matters more than the time of day. Use this cream daily, morning and evening. This gives HPT Complex and Matrixyl Synthe'6 the best chance to work. A steady routine also helps you notice changes as they build over time.
Who This Moisturiser Is For
This cream is for anyone who feels their skin has lost some of its usual firmness or bounce. If your skin looks a little hollow or tired lately, this formula was built with that concern in mind.
It also suits anyone who wants a moisturiser that wears light rather than heavy. The cushiony, fast-absorbing texture makes it easy to wear under makeup or layered with other skincare.
EPII pairs this cream with the matching HPT6 Ultra Drop serum. This suits anyone who wants to build a fuller firming routine. Used on its own, the cream still offers the same two lead ingredients. It also works well as a single step.
This moisturiser focuses on structure and firmness, not just surface hydration. Give your skin the chance to feel that difference. A firmer, more resilient look starts with consistent, daily use.
