Save 15%Applied after a retinoid or acid, this reduces the dryness and tightness that cause most people to abandon an active routine in the first month. It draws moisture into the skin and needs a moisturiser layered over it to hold that moisture in place.
Who it is for
Anyone using retinoids or acids who needs more comfort in the routine. Anyone with dry or dehydrated skin generally.
How to use
Apply to slightly damp skin, morning or evening, before your moisturiser. Can be layered under a retinoid if your skin is reactive, applying the hydrating step first to buffer the active slightly.
What to expect
Immediate comfort and reduced tightness. Ongoing barrier support with regular use.

Evidence level
Good evidenceHyaluronic acid and panthenol both have reasonable evidence for hydration and barrier support. The category is well supported, though the effect sits with hydration rather than a specific corrective claim.
