Your daily routine, done

Formulated for all stages of motherhood

Dermatologist founded and tested

Safe for sensitive skin

As a dermatologist and a mom, I wanted to make the daily stuff easy. This set is the foundation: The Take a Sec Cleanser to melt everything away and The Go-To Moisturizer to keep your skin comfortable all day. Two products. No guessing. Just clean, hydrated skin without the overthinking.

The Take a Sec Cleanser (236ml / 8 fl oz) — Your moment of calm. A creamy, hydrating reset when you finally get to the sink.
The Go-To Moisturizer (50ml / 1.7 fl oz) — Lightweight, lasting hydration. Feels like a hug for your face when you need one most.

Let It Go: The Take a Sec Cleanser

AM or PM, apply a dime-sized amount to your wet face.
Gently massage for 20 seconds (and 10 more seconds if you have makeup on).
Rinse well and pat dry. Good clean fun? Done.

Seal It In: The Go-To Moisturizer

AM or PM after cleansing, smooth over face and neck. Hydrated, hassle-free, easy.

5-Second Answers from Dr. Aegean

You just want someone to tell you what actually works. My job is to look at the actual research and tell you what really matters, without the fear and without the confusion.

Yes. More Than Nine was thoughtfully formulated for all stages of motherhood—and developed with sensitive skin in mind. Each formula is reviewed by an independent toxicologist, made with well-studied ingredients at conservative levels, and tested for skin compatibility, including through an independently administered Repeat Insult Patch Test (RIPT) with individuals with sensitive skin. For more information, read our full Safety Statement.

Because most skin doesn’t need more—it needs consistency. This set covers the essentials: cleansing without stripping and hydration that supports your skin barrier all day. It’s the routine I’d tell almost any busy mom to start with.

Because when your skin feels off, more steps usually aren’t the answer. A gentle cleanser and reliable moisturizer can do a lot of heavy lifting—especially during seasons when your skin is changing.

Yes, this cleanser does the job in one step, no double cleanse needed. It was independently evaluated using the EpiOcular™ Eye Irritation Test, a validated non-animal method for assessing eye irritation potential. Based on results, the formula is considered a non-ocular irritant, supporting that it’s gentle enough for use around the eye area when used as directed. If stinging or discomfort occurs, discontinue use and rinse thoroughly.

Yes, this moisturizer was evaluated through independent non-comedogenic testing, a standard dermatologic assessment to determine whether a product is likely to clog pores when used as directed. In testing, the formula did not show a tendency to contribute to comedone (clogged pore) formation. As with all skincare, individual responses can vary, but this supports that it’s appropriate for acne- and breakout-prone skin.
