How To Use

Application: Dispense 1-2 pumps of the Barrier Restore Complexe into the palm of your hands. Warm the product between your palms, then gently massage over cleansed face, neck and décolleté using upward, outward motions until fully absorbed.

Frequency: Use once or twice daily, depending on your skin's needs and level of barrier compromise. For optimal results, apply consistently as part of your morning and evening skincare routine.

Timing: Apply after cleansing and any treatment serums or correctors, but before sunscreen in your morning routine. Can be used as the final step in your evening skincare regimen.

Layering: Layer over any correctors or serums you may have in your routine. The lightweight, oil-free texture allows for seamless integration into multi-step skincare protocols without pilling or interference with subsequent products.

Expert Tips: For intensive barrier repair, use twice daily consistently for optimal results. Particularly beneficial post-sunburn, post-peel, on minor burns and insect bites, or during periods of increased skin sensitivity. Can be applied to targeted areas requiring extra barrier support, such as the cheeks or around the nose where redness often appears.

FAQ

Q: Can I use this product if I have very sensitive or reactive skin?
A: Yes, the PRIORI LCA fx140 Barrier Restore Complexe is specifically formulated to be suitable for sensitive and reactive skin types. The anti-irritant complex and barrier-supporting ingredients help to calm and strengthen compromised skin. However, as with any new skincare product, we recommend conducting a patch test first and introducing it gradually into your routine. If you have extremely reactive skin or specific skin conditions, speak to our experts for personalised guidance.

Q: How does this product differ from a regular moisturiser?
A: Unlike standard moisturisers that primarily provide surface hydration, the Barrier Restore Complexe is a targeted treatment that actively repairs and strengthens the skin's barrier function. It contains a clinically-proven ratio of ceramides, cholesterol and essential fatty acids that replicate the skin's natural lipid matrix, along with PRIORI's proprietary LCA Complex for multi-layer renewal. This makes it particularly beneficial for compromised, sensitised or barrier-impaired skin that requires more than basic moisturisation.

Q: Can I use this with other active ingredients like retinol or vitamin C?
A: Yes, the Barrier Restore Complexe is designed to be layered over correctors and serums. Its barrier-supporting properties actually make it an excellent companion to active ingredients, helping to buffer potential irritation whilst enhancing overall treatment efficacy. Apply your treatment products first, then follow with the Barrier Restore Complexe to seal in benefits and provide protective barrier support.

Q: How long before I see results?
A: Many users experience immediate soothing and comfort upon application. For barrier repair and strengthening benefits, consistent use over 2-4 weeks typically yields noticeable improvements in skin texture, hydration levels and reduced sensitivity. Optimal barrier restoration may take 6-8 weeks of regular use, as this is the time required for complete epidermal turnover and lipid matrix restoration.

Q: Is this suitable for oily or acne-prone skin?
A: Absolutely. Despite its rich barrier-repair benefits, this is an oil-free formulation that won't clog pores or exacerbate breakouts. In fact, many acne-prone individuals suffer from compromised barriers due to harsh treatments, making barrier repair essential for restoring skin health. The lightweight texture absorbs readily without leaving a greasy residue, making it ideal for combination to oily skin types seeking barrier support.

Q: Can I use this immediately after professional treatments like chemical peels or laser?
A: Yes, this is an excellent post-procedure treatment. PRIORI specifically recommends using the Barrier Restore Complexe post-peel, post-sunburn, and on minor burns or bites due to its intensive barrier repair and soothing properties. However, always follow your skincare professional's specific post-treatment instructions and consult with them before introducing new products immediately following procedures.
