New from the INKEY List, Ectoin Hydro-Barrier Serum is a dual-action serum that deeply hydrates while supporting and strengthening the skin barrier.
The INKEY List Ectoin Hydro-Barrier Serum has been formulated with ingredients that work synergistically to provide deep, multi-level hydration while building a stronger, more resilient skin barrier to defend against dryness and environmental stressors (like pollution, weather, and even overuse of active ingredients)
KEY INGREDIENTS
- 2% Ectoin (Hydration + Barrier): Hero ingredient Ectoin is a natural amino acid derivative. Known as an extreme protector, Ectoin acts as a natural hydrator and skin cell stabilizer, helping to prevent dehydration, calm irritation, and reinforce barrier strength for skin that stays soft, smooth and comfortable.
- 2.5% Multi-Molecular Hyaluronic Acid: Contains 4 weights of Hyaluronic Acid to help deliver multi-level hydration within the skin’s surface
- 1% Barrier Blend: Includes three Ceramides to help protect and strengthen the skin’s barrier
Wondering what is the Skin Barrier and why is it so important? The Skin Barrier is a phrase used to describe the outermost layers of our skin that we can see and feel, known as the Stratum Corneum. A healthy skin barrier is described as selectively permeable…Put simply, this means the skin barrier keeps beneficial things in and harmful things out – this is essential for maintaining the skin’s health.
If your skin barrier is damaged, your skin will not be able to retain hydration effectively. And if your skin is dehydrated, your barrier will be compromised. That’s where this serum comes in to replenish hydration while simultaneously repairing your skin barrier for healthy, resilient skin.
With continued daily use, the INKEY List Ectoin Hydro-Barrier serum visibly improves 5 signs of a compromised skin barrier: dullness, dryness, redness, flakiness and slackness.
The INKEY List Ectoin serum can be used twice daily in your AM and PM routine. Always use as your first serum after cleansing, applying to damp skin to help lock in hydration. Follow with your favorite treatments and moisturizer to seal the benefits into skin.
This serum has a lightweight, milky texture that absorbs easily and quickly without a heavy or tacky feel. And it layers nicely under other skincare products and makeup. Take a look at the texture in my Instagram reels below…
