Fragrance-Free Moisturizer Canada

The best fragrance-free moisturizer in Canada for reactive, over-40 skin.

If perfume and essential oils keep picking a fight with your face, you’re in the right place. Schăf Moisturizer was built for skin that’s lived a little—skin that gets red, tight, or touchy when brands add “just a hint of scent.” Ours has no fragrance, no essential oils, and no fillers that stir the pot—just barrier-friendly hydration that doesn’t leave a film. 

For truly fragrance-free hydration, start with our Barrier-Repair Moisturizer.

• Fragrance-free & EO-free

• Non-comedogenic (won’t clog pores)

• Minimalist routine: pairs with our 3-Step System

Why fragrance-free matters more after 40

As we age, our barrier gets thinner and our tolerance for irritants drops. Synthetic fragrance and essential oils are two of the most common culprits behind flare-ups. Ditching both removes a huge source of stinging, redness, and “why is my face mad?” moments.

What we leave out (on purpose)

• Perfume and masking agents

• Essential oils (including “natural” fragrance)

• Drying alcohols and heavy occlusives that suffocate skin

• Dye, glitter, gimmicks

What’s inside (and why it works for fragrance-sensitive skin)

• Sodium Hyaluronate: hydration that doesn’t sit heavy or sticky.

• Niacinamide: supports the barrier and a more uniform look of tone—great for over-40 skin.

• Peptide complex (Palmitoyl Tripeptide-1/-5 & Palmitoyl Tetrapeptide-7): daily-driver peptides for a steadier, well-behaved surface.

• Squalane + Jojoba + Grape Seed + Sunflower: cushion without the wax; comfortable all day.

• Shea Butter: targeted comfort for drier spots.

• Aloe + Allantoin: keep things calm when your skin is… opinionated.

• CoQ10 + Vitamin E: antioxidant support for the everyday stuff (wind, heaters, life).

• Olive-derived emulsifiers: help the formula lay flat under SPF/makeup.

Who it’s for

• You react to “clean” products because they still include scent or EOs.

• Your skin feels tight after washing or gets shiny with heavy creams.

• You want a short routine that actually gets done.How to use (AM/PM)

1. Cleanse — a gentle rinse that doesn’t strip.

2. Treat (optional) — if your skin likes a serum, apply now.

3. Moisturize — ½–1 pump over face/neck; add a pea more where you’re driest.

4. AM only: finish with sunscreen.

If your skin is currently irritated, park the actives and run cleanser + Schăf Moisturizer for a week before reintroducing extras.

Results to expect

• Skin that feels comfortable all day—not tight, not greasy.

• Less “mystery redness” because there’s nothing perfumey to react to.

• Makeup sits better because the surface is calm and smooth.

FAQs

Is “unscented” the same as “fragrance-free”?
No. “Unscented” often uses masking fragrance. We are truly fragrance-free—no parfum, no essential oils, no masking agents. 

Will it clog pores?
It’s non-comedogenic and intentionally lightweight. If you’re oily in the T-zone, use a smaller amount there.

Can I use it with actives?
Yes—apply after water-based serums, before sunscreen. If your skin is feeling reactive, simplify and reintroduce slowly.
