Barrier care gel cream

A lightweight moisturizer that rebuilds and protects your skin's barrier

If your skin feels tight, irritated, or reactive, or your acne treatments leave you dry and flaky, your skin barrier needs support. Barrier Care Gel Cream is a weightless, acne-safe moisturizer that replaces the ceramides, lipids, and moisture your skin loses. The result is calmer, stronger, more comfortable skin.

What it does

• Strengthens and repairs a damaged or stressed skin barrier
• Locks in hydration and prevents moisture loss
• Calms visible redness and irritation
• Helps skin tolerate active treatments like benzoyl peroxide and retinoids
• Won't clog pores

Who it's for

All skin types, especially acne-prone, oily, combination, or sensitive skin that needs moisture without heaviness. It's a great choice after facials, peels, or other professional treatments, and during any acne-clearing routine.

Key ingredients

• Multi-Restore Complex™: a blend of three ceramides, essential fatty acids, and phytosterols that matches your skin's natural barrier, so it is quickly recognized and used.
• Squalane: a lightweight, skin-identical oil that softens and seals in moisture without greasiness.
• Hyaluronic acid (multiple forms): draws water into the skin at different levels for lasting hydration.
• Centella asiatica, bisabolol, and allantoin: soothing botanicals that calm redness and discomfort.

How to use

Morning and night, apply a dime-sized amount to clean face and neck as the last step of your routine, before sunscreen in the morning. If you use an acne treatment such as Face Reality Acne Med, let it dry for about a minute before applying.

Esthetician tip

Most clients notice their skin feels more comfortable within a few days of consistent use. After a few weeks, their acne treatments are usually much easier to tolerate.
