What is EltaMD AM Restore Moisturizer?
EltaMD AM Restore Moisturizer is a lightweight, oil-free morning moisturizer that helps protect and replenish the skin's moisture barrier. It combines niacinamide (vitamin B3) to diminish the look of dark spots, willow bark extract for natural exfoliation and hyaluronic acid to help skin absorb and hold moisture, without oil or heavy emollients. It is fragrance-free, dye-free, non-comedogenic and safe for sensitive skin, and EltaMD lists it for normal, combination, dry, oily and sensitive skin. Apply it in the morning to cleansed skin, then follow with an EltaMD sunscreen. Available at SkinCrew in 1.7 oz ($51).
Sourced direct from EltaMD: guaranteed authentic, batch-fresh, fast US shipping.
The problem
Morning moisturizers often fall into two camps: rich creams that feel greasy under sunscreen and makeup, or light lotions that hydrate for an hour and do nothing else. Meanwhile dullness, rough texture and dark spots from years of sun exposure are most visible in daylight, and many people do not want to add another serum just to address them.
A morning moisturizer that also works on tone.
AM Restore hydrates with hyaluronic acid and glycerin in an oil-free base, then adds niacinamide to diminish the look of dark spots from sun exposure and willow bark extract to support natural exfoliation. The result, according to EltaMD, is visibly brighter, smoother skin with more even color and tone, under a texture light enough to wear beneath sunscreen every day.

EltaMD AM Restore Moisturizer: oil-free morning hydration for brighter, more even-looking skin
EltaMD AM Restore Moisturizer is the morning half of EltaMD's AM and PM Restore pair. It helps protect and replenish the skin's moisture barrier while smoothing texture and evening color and tone, using niacinamide, willow bark extract and hyaluronic acid in an oil-free base without heavy emollients. EltaMD describes the result as visibly brighter, smoother skin.
The ingredient list also includes caffeine, a vitamin C ester (ascorbyl palmitate), allantoin and vitamin E. EltaMD describes AM Restore as oil-free, fragrance-free, dye-free, hypoallergenic, non-comedogenic and safe for sensitive skin, and positions it to be followed by an EltaMD sunscreen. Available at SkinCrew, an Authorized EltaMD US Retailer, with fast US shipping.

Why AM Restore Moisturizer Stands Out
- Niacinamide for dark spots. EltaMD includes niacinamide to help diminish the look of dark spots from sun exposure without clogging pores.
- Gentle exfoliation from willow bark. Willow bark extract supports the skin's natural exfoliation, which helps smooth texture and brighten the look of skin.
- Hydration without oil. Hyaluronic acid and glycerin help skin absorb and retain moisture in an oil-free, non-comedogenic base that sits well under sunscreen.
- Safe for sensitive skin. Fragrance-free, dye-free and hypoallergenic, and listed by EltaMD for normal, combination, dry, oily and sensitive skin.

EltaMD AM Restore Moisturizer FAQ
What does EltaMD AM Restore Moisturizer do?
AM Restore helps protect and replenish the skin's moisture barrier while smoothing texture and evening tone. Niacinamide helps diminish the look of dark spots from sun exposure, willow bark extract supports natural exfoliation, and hyaluronic acid helps skin hold moisture, for visibly brighter, smoother skin.
How do I use AM Restore?
Apply AM Restore in the morning to cleansed skin, then follow with an EltaMD broad-spectrum sunscreen such as UV Clear SPF 46. At night, EltaMD's partner product is PM Restore Moisturizer.
What is the difference between AM Restore and PM Restore?
AM Restore is the lightweight, oil-free daytime moisturizer focused on hydration, tone and dark spots, designed to sit under sunscreen. PM Restore is the night moisturizer in the pair. Many people use both for a complete day and night routine.
Is AM Restore good for oily skin?
Yes. AM Restore is oil-free and non-comedogenic, and hydrates without heavy emollients. EltaMD lists it for oily and combination skin as well as normal, dry and sensitive skin, and its light texture sits comfortably under sunscreen.
Is AM Restore the same as AM Therapy?
AM Therapy was the earlier name for this EltaMD morning moisturizer, and you may still see it used in searches and on older packaging. EltaMD now sells it as AM Restore Moisturizer.
Can I use AM Restore with vitamin C or retinol?
AM Restore is a gentle, fragrance-free moisturizer, so it layers easily over most morning serums, including vitamin C. Use retinol products at night as directed, and keep AM Restore for the morning, followed by sunscreen.
Is SkinCrew an authorized EltaMD retailer in the US?
Yes. SkinCrew is an Authorized EltaMD US Retailer and sources every unit directly from EltaMD, so AM Restore Moisturizer arrives fresh, authentic and in current packaging, with fast US shipping.
