FAQs

What does Hydrating Lotion do?

Hydrating Lotion is Barefaced’s lightweight, peptide-rich moisturizer that delivers lasting hydration and supports the skin’s moisture barrier. Its blend of peptides, antioxidants, and hydrating ingredients helps skin look smoother, firmer, calmer, and more balanced.
Is Hydrating Lotion good for a damaged skin barrier?

Yes, Hydrating Lotion helps support the skin’s moisture barrier with ceramides and niacinamide, while hyaluronic acid and other hydrating ingredients help attract and retain moisture. Its lightweight formula helps comfort skin that feels dry or tight, including when your routine contains exfoliating acids or retinoids.
Can I use Hydrating Lotion with RetinAL Skin or Toning Pads?

Yes, Hydrating Lotion can be used with RetinAL Skin, Toning Pads, and Toning Pads II to support hydration and barrier comfort. Apply it after serums and before SPF in the morning. At night, use it after RetinAL Skin to lock in moisture and keep skin feeling comfortable.
How much Hydrating Lotion should I use, and when should I apply it?

Apply 1–2 pumps of Hydrating Lotion to your face, neck, and chest in the morning and evening. Use it after serums and before SPF in the morning, and after your retinoid or other treatment steps at night.
What makes Hydrating Lotion different from a basic moisturizer?

Hydrating Lotion goes beyond hydration with moisture-barrier support and targeted benefits for multiple visible signs of aging. Its lightweight formula combines peptides, ceramides, niacinamide, and antioxidants to help skin look smoother, firmer, and more even while keeping it hydrated and comfortable.
What skin types is Hydrating Lotion best for?

Hydrating Lotion works for all skin types, especially normal, dry, and combination skin.
It’s also ideal for those introducing actives for the first time, helping offset dryness or irritation from acids and retinoids.
Is this product considered pregnancy or nursing-friendly?

We recommend consulting your healthcare provider for any specific concerns.
