Skin barrier care for sensitive skin
Your skin barrier is the outer layer that keeps water in and irritants out. In India it gets stressed by strong sun, pollution, hard water, dry North Indian winters and too many actives at once. When it is unhappy, skin feels tight, stings with products and marks look darker. Barrier care is about doing less, more gently.
What's inside
- Radiant Skin Serum: azelaic acid with hyaluronic acid in a light, water-based serum; dermatologically tested.
- Vitamin C Serum 12%: with 1% polyglutamic acid for hydration while it brightens.
- Post Peel Moisturizer: niacinamide, shea butter, hyaluronic acid and oat kernel extract, made as professional peel aftercare.
Barrier-friendly habits
Use lukewarm water, a gentle cleanser such as the Gentle Glycolic Cleanser a few times a week, a moisturiser every day and SPF 50 every morning. Introduce one active at a time. Read Skin Barrier 101 and our winter skincare routine for India.
Frequently asked questions
How do I know if my skin barrier is damaged?
Tightness, stinging with products you used to tolerate, flaking and redness are common signs.
How long does it take for the skin barrier to feel better?
Often a few weeks of a simplified routine: gentle cleanser, moisturiser and sunscreen, with fewer actives.
Can I use actives while repairing my barrier?
Pause strong acids. Gentle ingredients such as hyaluronic acid and niacinamide are usually fine.
