Creating Lightweight, Non-Greasy Skincare for Summer

In summer, rich creams and thick serums don’t cut it. Today’s consumers demand feather-light skincare that hydrates without leaving residue.

What Makes a Product “Non-Greasy”?

It absorbs quickly, doesn’t sit on the surface, and leaves no film. Think gel creams, oil-free serums, or water-based lotions.

Formulation Strategy

  • Use humectants (glycerin, HA) for hydration
  • Light emollients (squalane, caprylyl glycol) over heavy oils
  • Polymers and film formers to improve texture and absorption

Target Consumers

Perfect for oily skin, men’s skincare, humid climates, and younger demographics.

Packaging Appeal

Opt for tubes or airless pumps that reflect clean, light positioning. Use language like “fast-absorbing” and “invisible finish.”

Conclusion

Light doesn’t mean less effective. Biocylab helps brands create high-performance, heat-friendly textures customers will love.
