Skin Type: Normal, Dry, Combination, and Oily
Skincare Concerns: Dryness, Redness, and Dullness
Formulation: Lightweight Gel
Highlighted Ingredients:
- Prebiotics: Feed good bacteria.
- Probiotics: Support the skin barrier.
- Apple Amino Acids: Balance pH levels.
Ingredient Callouts: This product is vegan, gluten-free, cruelty-free, and comes in recyclable packaging.
What Else You Need to Know: Using too many skincare products causes stress to our skin and the environment. Barrier Culture Cleanser strips back your routine without stripping your skin. It balances pH levels, retains moisture, repopulates the topical microbiome, and protects the barrier for a clean, healthy complexion.
The patented technology in this cleanser is clinically shown to reduce pollution-induced skin barrier damage by 45 percent in three days (ex vivo) and improve skin moisturization by visibly reducing skin dryness and decreasing TEWL (trans-epidermal water loss) by 6.5 percent in 42 days (in vivo).
Clinical Results: After 6 weeks of using Barrier Culture Cleanser & Moisturizer exclusively, 45 respondents in a The Nue Co. independent study reported:
- 82% said their skin texture and tone was improved
- 82% reported improved skin hydration
-70% said their skin was less reactive and sensitive
