Balancer | Hydro Active

DR. GRANDEL Hydro Active Balancer is a new generation facial cream designed to intelligently balance mixed and oily skin. Its lightweight and fresh texture deeply hydrates the driest areas of the face while helping to control excess sebum in the T-zone, leaving the skin comfortable, matte, and visibly harmonized throughout the day.

Perfect balance between hydration and shine control

Formulated within the professional Hydro Active line, Balancer has been conceived as a 24-hour care specifically designed for oily and mixed (oily and dry) skin that seeks a clean, fresh feeling without sacrificing effective hydration. Its combination of marine actives, lightweight oils, and an intelligent sebum-regulating complex provides a smooth, even, and elegant finish, ideal for both minimalist routines and more sophisticated skincare rituals.

• Intensely hydrates without overloading, keeping the skin flexible and comfortable.
• Mattifies shiny areas, especially the forehead, nose, and chin.
• Helps prevent dehydration in the cheeks and drier areas of the face.
• Light texture, quick absorption, perfect for daily use and as a makeup base.
• Suitable for unisex use; its freshness and sensory appeal make it particularly appreciated in men's skincare.

Key actives and cosmetic technology

HYDRO ACTIVE Balancer combines a careful selection of ingredients that work in synergy to restore skin balance:

• Babassu Oil: silky oil obtained from the fruit of the babassu nut, with a melting texture and a subtle refreshing effect on the skin. It nourishes, protects, and promotes the natural balance of the skin barrier without a greasy feeling.
• Intelligent Sebum Balancer: “smart” encapsulation system based on polysaccharides, hydrolyzed wheat protein, and lipids, which contains zinc gluconate as a sebum-regulating active. This complex releases the ingredient where the skin shows the highest sebum production, helping to reduce shine and refine the appearance of the T-zone.
• Algae Seawater Complex: combination of oligosaccharides from brown algae (Laminaria digitata), amino acids from microalgae (Chlorella vulgaris), and seawater. Provides intensive hydration, reinforces the skin's natural hydration factors, and exerts a remineralizing effect. The skin's ability to retain water is visibly improved, providing a softer touch and a more even surface.

Sensory experience: lightness, freshness, and immediate comfort

The texture of Balancer is creamy-light, modern, and very pleasant to the touch. It spreads easily, absorbs quickly, and leaves a feeling of fresh, clean, and comfortable skin, without any trace of stickiness or occlusive film. Its fresh, discreet, and elegant fragrance turns application into a refreshing daily gesture, especially appreciated in mixed and oily skin and in masculine routines that shy away from heavy creams.

Indications and skin type

DR. GRANDEL Hydro Active Balancer is indicated for:

• Mixed skin (oily and dry) that combines shine in the T-zone and drier areas.
• Oily skin that needs sebum control without sacrificing hydration.

How to use
