FAQs

1. What is the “skin barrier”? How does this serum help repair it?

The skin barrier primarily refers to the outermost layer of the skin—the stratum corneum and sebum film. It acts like a wall, locking in moisture and defending against external irritants such as pollutants and allergens. When the barrier is compromised, skin may exhibit symptoms like redness, dryness, flaking, and sensitivity. Our repair serum is enriched with Polydeoxyribonucleotide (PDRN), derived from Norwegian Atlantic salmon germ cells. It shares 98% similarity with human DNA bases. Additionally, it contains Sodium Hyaluronate, Panthenol, L-Carnosine, glycine, proline, and alanine. These are natural skin lipids that effectively repair damaged keratinocytes, structurally rebuild and strengthen compromised barriers, and restore the skin's self-protective and hydrating capabilities.

2. What skin conditions require this barrier repair serum?

It is suitable for any skin with compromised barrier function or underlying vulnerability. This includes: Sensitive or low-tolerance skin: Frequently experiencing redness, itching, and tightness Skin after over-cleansing or acid peels: Barrier-damaged skin requiring urgent soothing and rebuilding Post-medical aesthetic procedures: Such as laser or microneedling, to accelerate healing and reduce inflammation Seasonal transition-prone skin: Experiencing dryness, flaking, or discomfort during seasonal changes.

3. What is the texture of this serum? Can it be used on oily or acne-prone skin?

Our repair serum features a gentle, fast-absorbing, lightweight formula free from common irritants, helping to soothe inflammation caused by barrier damage. Therefore, it is safe for oily and acne-prone skin, helping to stabilize skin condition rather than exacerbate issues.

4. How long does it take to see improvements in skin condition after using this essence?

Barrier repair is a gradual process typically requiring several weeks. Immediate relief is noticeable from the first use, with reduced redness and tightness. Short-term improvement (1-2 weeks): Dryness and flaking will significantly decrease, with tolerance beginning to improve. Long-term effects (over 4 weeks): Consistent use significantly strengthens barrier function, restoring skin's healthy radiance, stability, and plumpness. Skin becomes less prone to allergic reactions during seasonal changes or when exposed to irritants.
