Your skin barrier is the outermost layer of the skin — a “brick wall” of cells held together by lipids: ceramides, cholesterol and fatty acids.
Signs of a damaged barrier
- Products that never stung now sting
- Tightness after cleansing
- Redness, flaking or sudden breakouts
- Skin feels dehydrated even when oily
How to repair it
Pause exfoliants and retinoids for a week, switch to a gentle cleanser like Cloud, and apply a moisturiser with skin-identical lipids. Barrier Ceramide Cream uses a 3:1:1 ratio that mirrors healthy skin.
