FAQ
I have sensitive/reactive/eczema-prone skin–can I use Barrier Balancing Water Cream?
Barrier Balancing Water Cream has been reviewed for safety on a panel of people who don't have eczema. But because we know that skin with a weakened moisture barrier can feel extra sensitive, it's fragrance-free, safe for sensitive skin, and non-comedogenic. Of the 32 people in our clinical trial, 91% said their skin felt less reactive and more resilient after one week
Can I layer Barrier Balancing Water Cream with acne treatments/acids?
Great question! Barrier Balancing Water Cream is dermatologist-approved, acne-safe, and designed to support your skin barrier with essential, soothing hydration. In other words: it's the perfect complement to acne treatments or acids (like retinol or tretinoin)
Can I wear this under makeup?
Yes–while Barrier Balancing Water Cream wasn't designed as a primer, 97% of testers in our clinical trial said it layered into their routine without pilling
Is there currently a refill/will there be a refill?
Barrier Balancing Water Cream was designed to be refillable (just like our Triple Lipid-Peptide Cream and Skin Barrier Restoring Gel Cream), and while it isn't launching with one, we plan to make refill pods available soon
