Stress triggers cellular inflammation, weakens the skin barrier, and disrupts its hydration balance, contributing to fine lines and loss of skin elasticity.

This moisturizer counters these effects with skin-loving ingredients. The lightweight formula gently hugs skin to instantly hydrate, strengthen the skin barrier, and calm stressed, tired skin. It deeply penetrates skin's surface to bind and lock in moisture, delivering a dewy, plump glow while keeping your skin balanced and healthy.

*Your satisfaction is our priority. We offer a 30-day money back guarantee on all products.

TRUSTED BY PROFESSIONALS

"As a dermatologist, I value formulations that are gentle enough for daily maintenance. Matter of Monday's products are clean and gentle, while also protecting against everyday environmental stressors. It’s a thoughtful, science-driven approach to skincare."

Dr. Ryan Turner, MD

Board-Certified Dermatologist

As Seen in REAL SIMPLE:

“Many people swear by retinol products when it comes to anti-aging, but Dr. Debbie Palmer says retinol can irritate the skin and exacerbate dryness in the winter.

If you suspect your retinol treatment is parching your skin, opt for a skin-renewing lotion with a gentler formula that contains loads of hydrating ingredients. Dr. Palmer recommends this Matter of Monday moisturizer, a lightweight formula infused with microalgae extract, aloe, and hyaluronic
acid to soothe and quench your skin.”

Dr. Debbie Palmer, MD

Board-Certified Dermatologist

"What makes Matter of Monday's Anti-Blue Light Brightening Serum exceptional is its dual-action formulation — it not only protects the skin from digital pollution but also supports its natural repair processes overnight. In my practice, this kind of protection against blue light is the missing link in many skincare routines — and this serum finally fills that gap."

Dr. Jame Heskett, MD

Longevity/Anti-Aging Doctor

“As a functional medicine doctor, my focus is always on preventing issues before they arise, and that includes skin health. That's why I’m proud to support Matter of Monday's skincare line. This brand is taking a proactive, root-cause approach to skincare—helping people address the real sources of skin damage. It's refreshing to see a company prioritize the health of the skin at a deeper, more sustainable level.”

Dr. Michelle Hirsch, DACM

Functional Medicine Doctor

“I've been impressed with Matter of Monday and their use of gentle yet effective ingredients. I especially like their focus on bluelight skin protection, a niche that is relevant to our evolving modern-day needs. I enjoy using these products myself and also recommend them to my patients.”

Devine Texture and Quick Absorption
I'm impressed by the texture of the moisturizer, it's so devine and elegant. It soaks into my skin right away, leaving no residue. No oily feel or stickiness like some of other products I have.

Firner and softer skin without grease
I love that the moisturizer is not heavy so I can use it during the day and not feeling greasy on my skin. I can apply makeup on top, no pilling. My skin does look firmer and softer after applying.

Hydrated glow in a bottle
This has become my go-to for soothing and hydrating my skin. It feels lightweight yet nourishing, absorbs quickly, has no scent, and doesn’t feel sticky. My skin looks calm, dewy, and refreshed. I use it both in the morning and at night.
I also love the packaging. It’s sleek and adds a nice touch to my skincare routine.
