Skin Barrier Repair
A damaged skin barrier is one of the most common causes of redness, sensitivity, dehydration and breakouts.
Signs your skin barrier may be compromised
- Tight or dry skin
- Redness or irritation
- Stinging when applying skincare
- Increased breakouts
- Delayed skin healing
- Skin reacting to products that previously worked
Barrier damage often occurs from over-exfoliation, harsh cleansers or using too many active ingredients at once.
How to support skin barrier repair
The most effective way to support barrier repair is to simplify your routine and focus on hydration, calming ingredients and lipid support.
A barrier-supportive routine usually includes:
- Gentle cleansing
- Replenishing hydration within the skin
- Supporting the skin’s lipid barrier
- Avoiding excessive exfoliation or strong active ingredients
