This is an award-winning Day Defence Cream that provides intense hydration and strengthens your skin barriers, the result is that your skin looks plump as it has moisture and also feels smooth to the touch. This cream fights free radicals and as well as providing SPF15 protection, it also protects your skin from environmental stressors. But just as importantly it absorbs quickly too.
Follows is the formulation, taken from Vive’s website:
- Formulation: CBD 0.5% – Niacinamide 3% – ZnO 1%
High-performing actives provide deep hydration and strengthen your skin. Zinc Oxide and SPF15 protect your skin from environmental stress. - Each ingredient in our Tri-Active Formula has been formulated at levels that deliver significant benefits.
- CBD works with endocannabinoid receptors on our skin to provide a balancing action and mitigate the appearance of imperfections.
- Niacinamide (Vitamin B3) works wonders for our skin: strengthening skin barriers, it provides a number of benefits to skin from better moisture retention, to minimizing wrinkles and redness, to protection from oxidative stress and sun damage.
- Zinc Oxide forms a protective layer on the skin to keep moisture in and external aggressors out.

This is so easy to use as a pea-sized amount of cream over face and neck each morning, is all that’s needed. If you have a multi-step skincare routine, it works best to use mineral SPF products as the final step before applying your make up. Of course it also makes sense to ensure that the product is fully absorbed before using cosmetics.
I’m impressed with this lovely day defence cream with SPF15 included in it. This is another new company for me and one I’ll look forwarded to hearing more from.
For those of you that love to hear more about the company itself, here it is from their website:
Made by women, for women
Marina has worked in Research & Development for 34 years. With an entire career spent studying chemistry and biology, she has extensive knowledge of the science behind skin and how to improve its health and appearance. As Marina noticed changes in how her skin was behaving – increased sensitivity, redness, dryness, and blemishes, she used her scientific knowledge to create a product that would build up the strength of her skin to make it more resilient to stress and deliver vital antioxidants and vitamins.
“I only wanted to use ingredients that I knew something about, where I understood the science: that they were helpful without adding anything extra. I have a lot of empathy for my own skin and feel the need to take care of it in the best possible way.”
No frills: just science. Vive products use best-in-class ingredients to build deep hydration and moisturisation alongside antioxidant power. Having studied the growing weight of evidence pointing to cannabidiol (CBD) providing great anti-inflammatory properties, Marina combined these powerful actives to produce our CBD Tri-Active Formula.
Our philosophy: Unstress your skin: unstress your life.
Our skin tells the story of our lives; when we are challenged with physical or emotional stress, visible signs can appear on our skin that might leave us feeling defenceless and exposed. Our products have been engineered to work with your skin, using only scientifically proven ingredients that build strength and resilience, mitigating signs of strain and protecting us from environmental harm. We believe healthy, happy skin is central to a stress-free life.
