Barrier Protecting Hydrating Stick

The absence of water in the formula significantly reduces the likelihood of microbial growth. Without water, microorganisms cannot proliferate and cause spoilage or contamination. If you have hygiene concern, we suggest you to wipe the stick before use with dry tissue.

Barrier Protecting Hydrating Stick is a versatile product that seamlessly integrates into any skincare routine. making it an ideal companion for potent actives like vitamin C, retinol, and exfoliating acids. These powerful ingredients can sometimes irritate the skin, but the Barrier Protecting Hydrating Stick helps to minimize any potential dryness or irritation by creating a soothing and protective layer on the skin's surface.

The longevity of solid formulation versus the conventional liquid formulations can vary. Solid formulations, such as bars or sticks, often have concentrated ingredients, making them last longer than their liquid counterparts. It also depends on how much you use it each time. Barrier Protecting Hydrating Stick is very hydrating. Little swipes on your cheeks, forehead, and chin, are sufficient to keep your skin moisturized throughout the day. It can last up to 6 weeks when used twice a day.

Pilling is a common issue that happens due to the interaction of different formulations, ingredients, or application methods. If you use thick serum that contains thickeners like xanthan gum before Barrier Protecting Hydrating Stick, it might not layer well because the serum will stay on top of your skin, leading to pilling. Using excessive amounts of products can also lead to pilling as the skin can't absorb all the product, causing it to ball up. To minimize pilling, minimize your skincare routine and use smaller amounts of product. Give each product a few minutes to fully absorb into your skin before applying the next one. Instead of rubbing products vigorously, gently pat or press them into your skin.

You might experience purging. Skin purging is a temporary reaction that may occur when you start using certain skincare products, causing an acceleration of the skin's natural exfoliation process. This can lead to the release of pre-existing clogs, resulting in a brief increase in breakouts before improvements become noticeable. Barrier Protecting Hydrating Stick contains linoleic acid, which can help accelerate skin cell turnover that can lead to purging and temporary dryness. We suggest you to keep using the product. Stay consistent, keep your skin hydrated, and avoid picking at the affected areas to minimize irritation. If the purging persists for an extended period or is causing significant discomfort, consult a dermatologist for personalized advice.

Barrier Protecting Hydrating Stick includes linoleic acid, which may initially accelerate skin cell turnover. This can sometimes cause temporary dryness. We recommend continued use of the product alongside weekly exfoliation to remove dead skin cells.
