FAQ

  • What are exosomes?

    Great question. Exosomes are nanoparticles that package biosignals for export. In other words, they act as important messengers between cells, protecting and transporting the body’s natural messages. The exosomes in Exo Baume are biomimetic—vegan, lab-made, and modeled after the skin’s own signaling system. Their "message" is derived from bitter melon prebiotics.

  • I have sensitive/reactive/eczema-prone skin—can I use this?

    Yes! Exo Baume is formulated without fragrance or harsh ingredients like retinol, and was clinically tested to be safe for sensitive skin.

  • Can I use this if I'm allergic to retinol?

    Yes! Exo Baume does not contain any retinoids. We recommend performing a patch test and checking with your healthcare provider if you have any concerns.

  • When in my routine should I use this product?

    An easy rule of thumb is to apply Exo Baume as the first step in your routine after cleansing. But if you have oily skin, you might prefer to use Exo Baume as overnight mask—in that case, use it as the last step in your routine, instead of moisturizer.

  • Is this safe to use during pregnancy and breastfeeding?

    Exo Baume has been reviewed and tested for safety on a panel of people who aren’t pregnant or breastfeeding. It does not include any ingredients known to be unsafe while pregnant or breastfeeding, but as with any new product, we recommend checking with your healthcare provider if you're concerned.

Reviews

This stuff actually holds moisture!

"This stuff actually holds moisture! It’s soothing and plumping. I like to add it after my triple lipid eye cream has fully soaked in and it adds to the under eye plumping action quite a bit! Also perfect for after treatments, peels, or bringing a damaged skin barrier back to life."

Bethany H. (5/5)

Love this exosome balm. I

"Love this exosome balm. I use it first thing after cleansing and toner. I have combo skin but it doesn’t make me break out. I noticed it’s healing my skin barrier rapidly as it sets a protective healing layer on my skin before adding other products. I dont even break out after layering retinol afterwards which is a first. The only thing I don’t like is not knowing when it’s nearly finished (as with the rest of the skinfix products). I also hope a refill option will come out soon as I’m planning to keep restocking."

Katrina C. (5/5)

To be honest, skinfix is

"To be honest, skinfix is 99% of my skincare routine now. I love this product, my skin feels soft and plump after using and my lines appear less pronounced. I love it!"

Leanne G. (5/5)

I have been using Skinfix

"I have been using Skinfix faithfully for 2+ years - the foaming cleanser, serum and triple lipid peptide cream. I decided to try the Exo + Ectoin intensive repair baume. It’s amazing! I use it at night after cleansing, and my skin already feels bouncier, after only a few weeks of use. Both the baume and serum are great, but I will be making a permanent swap to this baume - that’s how good my skin looks and feels!"

Kelly S. (5/5)

"My favourite Skonfix product. The skin ony cheeks never feel dried out and tight when using this."

Laurie (5/5)

The best moisturizer for sensitive,

"The best moisturizer for sensitive, dry, mature skin!! I 100% recommend it. I wish it wasn’t so expensive for such a little amount though. I really hope they offer more cream for the price."

Jennifer D. (5/5)

Good cream, but it bit

"Good cream, but it bit heavy on texture, suitable for dry or deep hydrated skins well, however oily skin people should use as required."

Q&A

Can this be used over Estée Lauder Night Serum?
Hi Barbara, Because Exo Baume does not contain any harsh ingredients, it should play well with others. If you're concerned about using Exo Baume with something else in your routine, we recommend performing a patch test or checking with your healthcare provider. An easy rule of thumb is to apply Exo Baume as the first step in your routine after cleansing. We hope this helps!
I currently use triple lipid + collagen serum and vitamin c in the morning. Where in the routine should the Exo product go? Should the layering be exo, serum, vitamin c, then moisturizer?
Hi Heidi, Yes—that’s a great routine! We recommend alternating the time of day you use them: vitamin C in the morning to protect and brighten, and Exo Baume at night to support skin renewal. Both formulas are packed full of high-impact ingredients, so you probably don't need to layer them to see results. But if you want to, that's safe, too!
Can i use in am if you retin a at night?
Yes! Exo Baume works well with retinoids to counteract their drying side effects, and amplify results. If you're concerned, you can always start with a patch test.
Is this formulation compatible with oily acne prone skin? If not, will you be making one for it?
Hi there, Exo Baume might feel too rich for oily skin in the daytime, but those with oily skin who want to reap the smoothing, evening, and firming benefits might love using it as an overnight treatment. It's noncomedogenic, so it shouldn't be a problem for acne-prone skin.
I use kiehls vitamin c serum in the AM but I use the triple lipid collagen serum at night. I just bought the exo repair Baum. Should I use that after the triple lipid serum and before moisturizer at night?
"An easy rule of thumb is to apply Exo Baume as the first step in your routine after cleansing. But if you have oily skin, you might prefer to use Exo Baume as overnight mask—in that case, use it as the last step in your routine. Option 1: If skin feels dry or sensitive, layer it underneath your moisturizer for a boost of hydration. Option 2: If skin feels oily, use it as an overnight treatment at the end of your skincare routine, instead of moisturizer."
Should I use this product and tretinoin or would that be over doing it / irritating?
Hi Madalyn, Exo Baume works well with retinoids to counteract their drying side effects, and amplify results. If you're concerned, you can always start with a patch test.
