A deeply moisturizing treatment that corrects dryness, tightness and visible flaking, and rebuilds the skin's moisture barrier. Made for the night off between active ingredients.

Most barrier products work like a bandage, sealing the surface with occlusives. Renée Rouleau's Barrier3 technology adds two more mechanisms, fatty acids and omega-rich plant oils, which penetrate and restore the skin's lipid profile from underneath rather than only sitting on top of it.

KEY BENEFITS

• Instantly smooths dry, flaking skin caused by exfoliating acids, benzoyl peroxide, retinol and prescription retinoids
• Three methods of barrier repair working together: fatty acids, omega-rich plant oils and occlusives
• Reduces the appearance of redness and relieves irritation
• Lessens visible dryness and itchiness caused by eczema on face or body
• Calms skin after professional peels and laser treatments

TWO WAYS TO USE IT

• Overnight. Apply an even layer in place of moisturizer, leave on overnight, rinse in the morning.
• Fifteen-minute reset. Apply a generous layer to clean, dry skin, leave 15 minutes, rinse with warm water.

Use once a week, or more often as needed.

BEST FOR anyone using retinoids or acids who needs a recovery night, and for compromised, flaking barriers.

• Instantly smooths dry, flaking skin caused by acids, benzoyl peroxide and retinoids
• Barrier3 technology uses three mechanisms, not just an occlusive seal
• Fatty acids and omega-rich plant oils restore the lipid profile from underneath
• Reduces the appearance of redness and relieves irritation
• Eases visible dryness and itchiness from eczema on face or body
• Works overnight in place of moisturizer, or as a fifteen-minute reset

Renée Rouleau built her line on a premise the industry ignored for decades: skin is not simply dry, normal or oily. She formulates for nine distinct skin types across 55 products, so a routine matches the skin it is actually on rather than a broad category.

The approach combines cold-pressed botanical extracts with biologically active ingredients, at high concentrations and effective levels, in lightweight formulas that do not clog pores. Known irritants are avoided by policy, including mineral oil and petrolatum, SD and denatured alcohol, sulfates, isopropyl myristate and palmitate, synthetic dyes, phthalates, and the seed and shell powders and plastic beads common in facial scrubs.

Renée and her team are licensed estheticians who work with skin every day in their own spas. Nothing in the line is tested on animals. Celebrity users include Sofia Vergara, Demi Lovato and Lili Reinhart.
