Barrier Balance Cream Cleanser

A creamy, barrier-supporting cleanser made for skin in its 30s, 40s & beyond

1 reviews

Barrier Balance Cream Cleanser was made for that stage when skin starts to feel drier, tighter and a little less resilient. This cushiony formula washes away daily buildup while helping replenish the moisture and barrier lipids skin naturally loses with age. While most cleansers focus on what they take off, Balance Cream Cleanser gives extra support to changing skin, leaving it feeling clean, hydrated and nourished after each use.

Best Cleanser!!

"I’m obsessed with this cleanser. The texture of my skin has drastically improved and I honestly haven’t had any breakouts since I started using it. I love the consistency. It has such a smooth, luxurious texture, lathers really well, and makes my skin feel so clean without drying it out. I seriously don’t want to use another cleanser ever again!"
