Why We Love It

Sometimes your skin needs more than just a daily moisturizer for dry skin. Situations like sun damage, stress, over exposure to extreme weather conditions, overuse of active ingredients and skin sensitivity can compromise your skin barrier. This can lead to increased dryness, discomfort, and heightened skin reactivity. Our Ultra Facial Advanced Repair Barrier Cream with Colloidal Oatmeal and Beta-Glucan works as a more intensive treatment to fortify the barrier, instantly soothe, and reduce visible redness for relieved, healthy-looking skin.

Expert Advice

“Our Ultra Facial Advanced Repair Barrier Cream was specifically developed with compromised and discomforted skin moisture barriers in mind. Our formula provides expert care, helping to repair the depleted skin moisture barrier by replenishing its lipids, reducing trans-epidermal water loss, and providing relief from both itchiness and visible redness resulting from dryness.”

Frequently Asked Questions

Answers to Your Frequently Asked Questions

WHAT SHOULD I USE A BARRIER CREAM FOR?

Our Ultra Facial Advanced Repair Barrier Cream was specifically developed with distressed and discomforted skin in mind. It provides hydration and moisture to help soothe and replenish skin that is dry and sensitized. It also helps repair skin’s moisture barrier that may have become compromised due to mechanical and physical stress, like wind burn, chaffing, or other extremely drying conditions.

WHERE SHOULD YOU APPLY A BARRIER CREAM?

You may apply a thin layer of Ultra Facial Advanced Repair Barrier Cream to the entire face or areas of the face prone to visible redness or sensitization. These areas are typically the cheeks, bridge of nose, nasolabial area and jaw line. It may also be applied frequently to dry, rough skin patches on the body to help relieve skin that feels and looks dry and tight. Ultra Facial Advanced Repair Barrier Cream can even be applied to the cuticles around your nails whenever they feel dry or appear rough.
