Concern

Skin Barrier

The skin barrier is the outer protective layer that helps retain moisture while defending the skin from irritants and environmental exposure. When it becomes compromised, the skin may feel dry, sensitive, uncomfortable or unusually reactive.

SKIN BARRIER

The Causes

 

The skin barrier can become weakened when it loses moisture or is repeatedly exposed to irritating products and environmental stress. This may reduce the skin’s ability to protect itself and remain calm and balanced.

Over Exfoliation

Frequent use of acids, scrubs or strong active ingredients can strip the skin and increase sensitivity.

Aging, Weaker Skin

As the skin ages, natural oil, moisture and structural support gradually decline, making the barrier thinner, drier and more vulnerable to irritation.

Environmental Stress

Dry weather, heating, air conditioning, hot water and sun exposure can reduce moisture and weaken the barrier.
