Collection: Damaged Barrier

A damaged skin barrier occurs when the outermost layer of the skin, the stratum corneum, is compromised, leading to increased moisture loss and irritation. Common causes include over-exfoliation, harsh skincare products, environmental stressors like pollution or UV exposure, and even certain skin conditions. Signs of a damaged barrier include redness, dryness, sensitivity, and breakouts. To repair it, focus on gentle, hydrating products with ingredients like ceramides, hyaluronic acid, and fatty acids. Avoid exfoliants and fragrances, and prioritize moisturizers that strengthen the barrier. Consistent sun protection and reducing exposure to irritants will aid in recovery, restoring balance and resilience.
