Strong Ceramide Protective Shield for the Skin
All skin types, especially those that are dry, irritated, and demanding, benefit from a robust, resilient skin barrier. The Barrier Cream offers this protection with an innovative, fragrance-free and alcohol-free care formula. Its advanced repair complex, enriched with hydrating ceramides and phytolipid-based Ceramide Complex CLR™, works to rebuild stressed cell structures. This intensive moisture and gentle nourishment restore strength and stability to weakened facial skin.
Barrier Cream with 5% Ceramide Complex
Ceramides, crucial for a healthy skin barrier, form an essential part of the skin’s protective lipid network. They create a strong membrane that prevents moisture loss. Ceramide Complex CLR™ begins to repair the cell structure as the skin becomes dry or sensitive. Its plant-based ceramide precursors, derived from phospho- and sphingolipids, robustly maintain the lipid barrier against external stresses.
Enhanced with hydrating ceramide NP and hyaluronic acid, this bio-compatible ceramide complex provides targeted and preventative moisturisation. Thus, The Barrier Cream not only helps restore the facial skin’s barrier function but also enhances its ability to retain moisture over time.
First-Class Gentle Intensive Care
Formulated with high-quality plant-based oils, this intensive restorative care is alcohol-free, fragrance-free, and exceptionally gentle on sensitive, demanding skin.
Rich in omega-7 fatty acids, premium organic macadamia oil aids the regeneration of the skin’s collagen, enhancing firmness. Oat kernel oil, with its natural ceramide content, soothes and nourishes dry areas, while its high antioxidant levels shield the skin from environmental damage. Babassu oil delivers additional moisturising benefits. The Barrier Cream leaves all skin types feeling stronger, firmer, and silky-soft.

- Tips
- Extra Boost of Freshness: For extremely dry and stressed skin, an additional moisturiser with a hydrolat or booster can enhance hydration. This prep step ensures your skin is ready for optimal benefits from our barrier cream. When mixed with a serum or fluid, The Barrier Cream becomes even lighter and more hydrating.
- Intensively Moisturised: To enrich the benefits of The Barrier Cream, simply add 2-3 drops of facial oil to your hands, blend, and then massage into your skin. Look in the mirror and enjoy your radiant, well-cared-for complexion. You look fabulous!
- More of the Same: For an extra nourishing treatment, apply a thick layer (3-5 mm) of The Barrier Cream to your cleansed face once a week. Leave it on for about 15 minutes, avoiding the mouth and eye areas. Afterwards, gently pat any residue into the skin or wipe away with a tissue—and relax. Enjoy the soothing, deep care.

The active ingredients
Ceramides
Ceramides are crucial components of the skin’s protective lipid network, essential for maintaining a healthy skin barrier. Ceramides NP create a moisture-retaining membrane that fortifies the skin’s cell structure, promoting resilience and repair.
Macadamia
Cold-pressed macadamia nut oil’s natural ingredients have a regenerative effect and enhance the skin’s smoothness and elasticity. It is particularly suitable for the care of dry and stressed skin.
Oat
Oat kernel oil is a high-fat oil pressed from oat kernels. It boosts the skin and hair’s defences, thus protecting them from damaging external influences and protects against dehydration.
