Product to Improve Skin Barrier Function

The Importance of a Healthy Skin Barrier

The skin barrier is the outermost layer of our skin known as the epidermis / stratum corneum. It is a protective envelope and our first line of defense to prevent transepidermal water loss (TEWL) and protect against toxins and external aggressors that can damage our skin and cause infections and inflammation. It's as simple as the skin on fruits and vegetables, once it's damaged bacteria and toxins can enter and potentially harm the inside of the fruit. 

A Compromised Skin Barrier Can Cause

- Dryness, flaking, dehydration
- Redness, sensitivity 
- Dull complexion
- Breakouts and inflammation

Choosing Products to Protect the Skin Barrier

This ingredient has been shown to boost skin’s moisture content, reduce inflammation and help prevent moisture loss. 

Vitamin B-5 (Panthenol) is an excellent humectant that helps retain moisture. Its molecular structure allows it to attract moisture from the atmosphere and bind to water molecule while also soothing redness and inflammation.

It helps produce ceramides to improve hydration and reduce TEWL, increase collagen production, inhibit excess sebum production, help improve discolorations, in addition to anti-inflammatory and antioxidant benefits. 

Antioxidant Moisturizer

An integral ingredient in this moisturizer is Crocus Chrysanthus Bulb Extract. In clinical studies this ingredient has been shown to rejuvenate the skin matrix thanks to its growth factor-like activity to preserve and protect the skin. 

Rose Foaming Cream Cleanser
