Korean skincare has always believed in healthy skin first. Barrier Care brings us back to that philosophy.
Does your skin feel drier, more sensitive or duller after summer? Back to your skin basics. Autumn is the perfect time to support and strengthen your skin barrier and prepare it for the new season. We do this through education, routine inspiration and a promotion.
Healthy skin starts with the basics: a strong and well-functioning skin barrier. This is exactly what Korean skincare has focused on for many years. Within the Korean skincare philosophy, skincare is not only about correcting concerns, but above all about supporting and maintaining healthy skin.
A healthy skin barrier contributes to several important functions
Protection from external
influences
Reduction of moisture loss
Support for
skin balance
Support for
the microbiome
With Barrier Care - Back to your skin basics, we go back to the essentials of skincare. We explore what the skin barrier is, how to recognise the signs of skin that is out of balance and which ingredients and routines can help support your skin.
Korean skincare truly focuses on: Barrier first!
Prevention, hydration and maintaining a healthy skin barrier form the foundation of almost every routine. This is reflected in the products and ingredients. Many Korean formulas contain skin-friendly ingredients that support the skin barrier, such as ceramides, rice extract, panthenol, beta-glucan, Centella asiatica, squalane and hydrating ingredients such as glycerin and hyaluronic acid.
Many Korean products combine active ingredients with hydrating, soothing and skin barrier-supporting ingredients. This means that they not only target a specific skin concern, but also give the skin the support it needs to remain comfortable and balanced.

Frequently asked questions about Barrier Care
How long does it take for your skin barrier to recover?+
How quickly your skin barrier returns to balance varies from person to person. Give your skin time and keep your routine simple, hydrating and gentle during this period.
Which ingredients work well within Barrier Care?+
Think of ingredients such as ceramides, panthenol, beta-glucan, Centella asiatica, squalane, glycerin and hyaluronic acid. Which ingredients work best depends on what your skin needs at that moment.
Can oily skin also have a compromised skin barrier?+
Oily or combination skin can also be dehydrated, sensitive or out of balance. Barrier Care is therefore not about one specific skin type, but about supporting a healthy skin barrier.
