The lightweight, fast-absorbing AQUASENSE emulsion is designed for normal and dry skin that needs lasting daily hydration and extra comfort. Its 24-hour moisturising concept helps maintain an optimal moisture level, while SPF 8 and lipid-rich ingredients complement everyday protection from environmental stress. The texture is suitable for morning and evening use without feeling heavy.
Key benefits of the moisturising face emulsion
- 24 h hydration: developed to help maintain moisture for longer.
- 3% sea chamomile extract: helps maintain cellular moisture balance and reduce discomfort caused by dehydration.
- 2% lactic acid: helps gently exfoliate dead cells, smooth the skin surface and support hydration.
- Shea butter and sweet almond oil: provide emollient lipids and help form a protective lipid layer against wind, cold and urban environmental stress.
- SPF 8: includes UV filters as an addition to daily facial care.
- Lightweight texture: absorbs quickly and is suitable for everyday use without a heavy or greasy feel.
Active ingredients and their role
Tripleurospermum maritima, or sea chamomile extract, is one of AQUASENSE’s characteristic botanical ingredients. It is used at 3% in this formula to help maintain optimal hydration and skin comfort. 2% lactic acid combines gentle exfoliating action with a moisturising function, helping the skin surface look smoother and more radiant with regular care.
Shea butter and sweet almond oil add emollient fatty acids and help reduce the feeling of dryness. The formula also contains glycerin, aloe extract and a vitamin E derivative, creating a gentle daily moisturising base.
Who is it for?
Especially suitable for normal and dry skin and during periods of exposure to cold, wind or dry air. A practical daily choice for those who want a light texture, long-lasting hydration and low-level SPF protection in one product.
How to use
Morning home care
- Cleanse the face, neck and décolletage with AQUASENSE cleansing milk, then tone with AQUASENSE toner.
- If you use a serum, apply it after toner and allow it to absorb. Then spread a small amount of emulsion evenly over the face, neck and décolletage using gentle upward movements.
- Use as the final daily moisturising step for normal and dry skin. If higher UV protection is needed during the day, apply a separate facial sunscreen on top.
Evening home care
- Remove make-up and daily impurities with AQUASENSE cleansing milk; for long-wear eye and lip make-up, BI PHASE biphasic make-up remover may be used first.
- After cleansing, use AQUASENSE toner, followed by serum if part of your routine, and finish with the emulsion.
- If the skin is very dry or needs richer night care, choose AQUASENSE renewing cream instead of the emulsion as the final evening step.
Professional use
In the salon, AQUASENSE emulsion can be used as the final moisturising step after facial cleansing and toning. Cleanse first with AQUASENSE cleansing milk, tone with AQUASENSE toner, then apply the emulsion to the face, neck and décolletage after the selected serum or treatment. It is especially suitable for normal and dry skin and in periods of exposure to wind, cold or a dry climate.
Combining with other Gerard’s products
For dehydrated combination skin or skin prone to shine, choose AQUASENSE sorbet cream for a lighter finishing texture. If loss of tone and pronounced dryness are the main concerns, add SOYSOY JALURACTIVE firming face serum with hyaluronic acid after toning and follow with a suitable AQUASENSE cream.

Product story
AQUASENSE is Gerard’s moisturising care system developed for normal, dry and markedly dehydrated skin. The line is built around maintaining water balance: botanical and marine-derived active ingredients are combined with comfortable textures to help the skin retain moisture for longer and maintain a fresh, smooth and even appearance. Since 1970, Gerard’s has based its cosmetic approach on combining the properties of naturally derived raw materials with modern cosmetic technologies.
The AQUASENSE care ritual is designed step by step: gentle cleansing, toning, then a moisturising or renewing product suited to the current skin condition. This approach gives each product a clear role in the daily routine and makes the line easy to combine. The aim is not to create a heavy feeling on the skin, but to maintain comfort, suppleness and a healthy-looking radiance throughout the day.
