Who Needs It?

Someone who needs to press reset on their irritated skin. More specifically:

• who washes their face more than twice a day
• who overdoes skincare by using harsh acne treatments or anti-aging products too often
• whose skin is constantly dehydrated
• who has constant redness and dry patches
• who is sensitive to many skincare products
• who has chronic stress (yes, cortisol affects the skin barrier too!)
• who is looking to get rid of hyperpigmentation
• who has aging or mature skin
• anyone who intends to maintain a healthy skin barrier function
• who has skin problems associated with a damaged skin barrier

Application Guide:

Apply one or two pumps of Great Barrier Relief before your moisturizer or in replacement of your moisturizer. No rules, really! Reach for Great Barrier Relief whenever your skin is feeling irritated and don’t forget to remove those sensitizing products from your routine.

How to #PressReset on *EXTREMELY* Irritated Skin with Great Barrier Relief.

* The following steps only apply to those who have severely damaged skin-barrier that literally every product they apply stings and irritate.

1. Drop every skincare product you’re using.
2. Take a break from cleansing, which also means no makeup or sunscreen during this period. 
   (If you need to wash your face, use lukewarm water and gently rinse. Use distilled water if you live in a place where tap water is too harsh or unfiltered! Please don't be surprised by the 'skipping sunscreen' advice! It's a very common dermatology practice to advise patients to drop everything including sunscreen when the patient is dealing with an extreme skin condition. When your skin-barrier is damaged, the permeability of the skin increases. The chemical UV filters can easily sink in and further sensitize the skin and nowadays, most conventional mineral sunscreens use nano/micro UV filters which can easily get absorbed into the skin too. And sunscreens that are formulated with other potential irritants can exacerbate the problem so we're eliminating all the potentially problematic factors to really give your skin a reset!)
3. Use Great Barrier Relief morning and night until your skin has reset and feels relieved and relaxed.
4. Start adding back your core essentials once your skin is healed: Cleanser, Moisturizer and SPF.

Key Nutrientss:

Tamanu Oil - An oil that research shows has remarkable skin-regenerative properties and was traditionally used to heal wounds and cure various skin problems and ailments. 

Safflower Oil & Rosehip Seed Oil - Two incredible plant-based oils that have amazing skin-nourishing benefits and are higher in linoleic acid than oleic acid. Why does that matter, you ask? Countless studies demonstrate that oils rich in linoleic acid help restore ... (you guessed it!) damaged skin-barriers. The infusion of these two oils results in a high linoleic acid concentration that creates a light consistency, which melts right into your skin without the greasiness.

NMF + Ceramides, Phytosterol*, Squalane - A cocktail of ingredients that is meant to mimic a healthy skin barrier. These elements are naturally found in your skin when it is not compromised and in a restful state of zen. When life gets too stressful and your skin is put on edge, these super ingredients escape from your skin and leave it vulnerable. Replenish your skin barrier with this restorative combination.

*Phytosterol is an ingredient similar to cholesterol found in plants.

Niacinamide - Also known as Vitamin B3, this ingredient is the soccer mom of the skincare world who can do it all and more. Highly effective for barrier reparation (of course), anti-aging, skin-brightening, and even acne prevention, niacinamaide is the versatile queen your skin will adore. What’s more, it’s also one of the most gentle active ingredients that delivers great skin benefits without any skin irritation, making it accessible for all skin types to give a chance.
