Before the actives, before the treatments, before the glow, there’s your skin barrier. The outermost layer of your skin that works hard to seal in moisture, defend against environmental aggressors, and keep your skin calm and resilient.
When it’s strong, your skin looks its best - hydrated, smooth, and radiant. Overdoing it with actives (yes, even your beloved retinol), scrubbing too aggressively, or using products that don’t suit your skin type can gradually weaken this crucial layer. When that happens, you might notice dry patches, dehydration, rough texture, redness, and sensitivity creeping in.
The good news: a little TLC can go a long way. Here's where to start.
Cleanse gently morning and night.
We recommend Ultra Calming Cleanser, a pH-balanced formula that effectively removes surface impurities while soothing and hydrating your skin. Remember to be cautious of your water temperature. Hot water can strip moisture and increase dryness. Use lukewarm water and gently pat your skin dry with a damp cloth.
Hydrate deeply.
After cleansing, apply 1-2 pumps of Ultra B² Hydrating Serum. Packed with three types of Hyaluronic Acid, it draws moisture from deep within your skin to quench surface dehydration.
For an extra boost, spritz Ultra Hydrating Skin Mist before serum application. Applying on damp skin enhances absorption and locks in hydration.
Seal in moisture.
Lock hydration with a moisturiser rich in ceramides and barrier-supporting ingredients. Our pick? Ultra Calming Moisturiser Cream, designed to soothe, calm, and strengthen your skin’s natural defenses. At night, switch to Ultra DNA³ Complex Recovery Night Cream, which floods skin with intense nourishment to support natural overnight renewal and barrier repair.
Protect daily.
Complete your routine with Ultra Protective Antioxidant Complex, a potent blend of antioxidants like Silymarin, Vitamin E, and Ferulic Acid to shield your skin from environmental stressors. Follow with a broad-spectrum sunscreen.
