Product details
Barrier + hydration
A rich ceramide cream with cholesterol and fatty acids that locks in moisture and calms dry, sensitive skin.
COSRX’s barrier moisturizer pairs five ceramides with cholesterol and fatty acids, the same kinds of lipids that hold a healthy skin barrier together. Squalane, panthenol and hyaluronic acid add softness and long-lasting hydration, so dry, irritated or damaged skin feels comfortable again.
