BARRIERSMITH™ – Cool as a Cucumber

Description

BARRIERSMITH™ is a replenishing complex of biomimetic lipids with high regards for hydration. Heal a compromised barrier and slow down transepidermal water loss (TEWL) with fortifying ceramides, cholesterol and fatty acids that mirror the skin’s outer layer. This cream will support a healthy microbiome with a pre and post-biotic blend that restores good bacteria – and your faith in skincare. Repair, reinforce, repeat, without losing momentum in your clear skin practice.

BARRIERSMITH™ means having a healthy skin barrier function. This is the first step to managing skin diseases, including acne. A strong barrier not only retains hydration and slows transepidermal water loss (TEWL) but supports your skin in tolerating products with acne-treating actives. While exfoliating products work to prevent future acne, it’s crucial to pair them with nourishing, reparative ones. Bolster your approach with anti-inflammatory, oil balancing and collagen-boosting ingredients that support your barrier to do its thing – your clear skin will thank you for it.
