Professional moisturisers are created with one key focus: to support and enhance your skin’s barrier function, cell communication, and repair processes. Rather than masking dehydration, they actively correct the underlying imbalances that cause it — from lipid deficiencies and environmental damage to inflammation and ageing.
Look for:
Ceramides: Essential for rebuilding the skin barrier.
Peptides: Signal your skin to repair and rejuvenate.
Antioxidants: Defend against environmental stressors.
Growth factors: Support healing and skin regeneration.
