UpCircle Moisturizing Face Cream is a deliciously deeply hydrating, fast-absorbing cream to nourish and brighten the skin. The day cream has a fresh, light and zesty scent and contains vitamin E-rich argan powder that is combined with skin-softening cocoa butter, aloe vera and blood orange.
Argan powder UpCircle gives 'waste' a second life by incorporating ingredients that would otherwise be discarded into its natural facial care. UpCircle's facial cream is made from finely ground powder of discarded argan shells, a natural byproduct of the argan oil industry and is rich in antioxidant vitamin E. Argan powder is a source of antioxidants, lipids and vitamins. The presence of this powder promotes the ease with which the day cream can be spread over the skin.
Cocoa butter Cocoa butter's emollient properties make it an excellent ingredient for deep hydration of dry, itchy skin. Cocoa butter is rich in antioxidants and essential fatty acids.
Sage oil The moisturizing and conditioning properties of sage oil help soothe dryness and irritation. It also works to reduce the appearance of pimples, large pores, and small scars.
Linseed oil Flaxseed oil helps with chronic skin conditions such as rosacea, acne, dermatitis, eczema and psoriasis. The fatty acids work to balance the skin's own oils and reduce inflammation, allowing the skin to heal.
Instructions for use Apply the face cream to clean, dry skin. Massage until the day cream is absorbed. Suitable for all skin types and for daily use. Preferably use the day cream during the day, do you also want to use a face cream at night? Then choose the night cream with hyaluronic acid and niacinamide from UpCircle.
Use the metal spatulas from UpCircle to easily scoop the face cream out of the jar, without having to use your fingers.
Beat the Microbead - Microplastics UpCircle's face cream has it 'Look for the Zero - Zero Plastic Inside' logo of Beat the Microbead.
Packaging Packaged in a glass jar with an aluminum lid. The packaging is fully recyclable. There is a plastic liner in the lid. This is to protect the aluminum lid from the essential oils in the cream. Essential oils can cause aluminum to oxidize (meaning it gets a black coating) which can spoil the product. There is currently no better alternative available. We recommend reusing the jars as much as possible. If you are throwing them away, remove the plastic liner from the lid and put it in the plastic waste.

UpCircle
UpCircle was founded in 2016 by twin brother and sister Will and Anna. The circular economy is at the heart of UpCircle’s approach. The name UpCircle refers to ‘upcycling’; the process of making something that already exists better. UpCircle’s mission is to leave the world better than it found it by transforming otherwise wasted ingredients into natural, organic beauty products.
Every product in UpCircle’s portfolio contains and rescues byproducts from other industries – specifically the food and beverage industry. The UpCircle story began with the idea of giving used coffee grounds a second life. In addition to coffee grounds, UpCircle is now also giving chai tea spices and fruit pits a new lease on life. Food ingredients can have powerful effects on the body – inside and out. This opens up the possibility of creating beauty products from food ingredients that would otherwise be thrown away, but that still have a lot to offer our skin.
UpCircle uses only the finest plant-based ingredients and never tests on animals. UpCircle products are 99% plastic-free in packaging, and for the remaining 1% they offer plastic-free refill options.
