Cool ingredients+

24% Biomimetic lipids: In a synergistic lipid blend, ceramides, vegan cholesterol and free fatty acids form a protective layer to support skin barrier function, hydration and resilience.  Ethyl-linoleic acid, an essential fatty acid that acne-prone skin tends to be deficient in, regulates sebum production by stopping enzymes from converting testosterone into DHT. Phytosphingosine carries anti-microbial qualities, defusing inflammatory situations as part of the skin's natural defense system.

 

4% Pre and post-biotic microbiome complex: Promotes good bacteria, restoring the balance – and your faith in skincare. 

 

4.5% Natural Moisturizing Factor (NMF) complex: Plant-derived squalane and a blend of 11 amino acids. The former locks in hydration without clogging pores. The latter maintains moisture, increasing the skin’s water content and elasticity. Both crush TEWL (transepidermal water loss), so your skin’s never thirsty. 

 

2% Red clover extract

This bloom shrinks the appearance of enlarged pores and balances oil by inhibiting 5-alpha reductase; a cheeky enzyme that turns testosterone into DHT, causing increased sebum production.

Acne Edge+

Having healthy skin barrier function 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.

How to use+

Use daily, morning and night. After your serums, melt a dime-sized dollop into your face. Chase with an SPF in the AM and zzz’s in the PM.

Life saving for sensitive skin

Can’t say enough good things about this cream. It’s rich but not oily, super hydrating and ideal for sensitive skin. I’ve been waiting for something like this to come to market forever, have tried so many different products across the price spectrum and nothing comes close. Stocking up my household on barriersmith!

A great hydrating moisturizer

One of the best moisturizers ever. Super hydrating — even in the middle of winter. I also like the texture a lot. Not sticky but silky and lovely!

New favorite moisturizer!

This moisturizer is pure magic for damaged skin. Unlike other rich creams that just sit on top, Barriersmith sinks right in and actually repairs your barrier - I saw a dramatic improvement in my skin's sensitivity and hydration within two weeks. The fact that it's fragrance-free and doesn't clog pores makes it a holy grail product for my acne-prone skin.

After destroying my skin barrier with too many products, Barriersmith was a total game-changer. The soft texture absorbs beautifully without feeling greasy, and within three weeks my skin went from sensitive and reactive to calm. Worth every penny for anyone dealing with barrier damage.
