  • SOOTHING AND NOURISHING

    Very soothing and nourishing balm that protects and soothes my easily irritated skin. Have been using this ever since i accidentally damaged my moisture barrier some time back. Mixes well with my serum as well, highly recommended

  • A DREAM

    I use this dreamy bouncy hydrating cream at night alongside my retinol I find this helps me not over do it on the retinol and calms down the skin peeling and redness by giving my skin barrier that extra protection as come on we have all over done it on the acids before! Again if that is the issue you are having this cream is for you!

FAQ

All your questions about the Molecular Barrier Recovery Cream Balm

ALLIES TIP

Use this cream-balm to focus on overnight skin repair and recovery. For superior pore refinement, microbiome and barrier recovery, combine it with our Prebiotics & Niacinamide Pore Refining Booster. For a night of additional intensive skin recovery and to help promote your skin’s natural regeneration process, mix it with our CE15 Bakuchiol Firming Oil.

What is the difference between this product and the Peptides & Antioxidants Firming Daily Treatment?

The Peptides & Antioxidants Firming Daily Treatment is a firming and brightening moisturizer, which is great for dull, fatigued, and maturing skin looking for a youthful glow. With daily use, the production of skin collagen is boosted, cellular health of the skin is prolonged and visible radiance and firmness can be seen. Daily Treatment is suited for all skin types, especially prematurely aging skin. The Molecular Barrier Recovery Cream Balm is soothing and repairing. Perfect for sensitised, dry, and reactive skin, this powerful formula is made with a fusion of instantly acting and long-term reparative ingredients and acts as an all-in-one First Aid kit for your skin. It’s ideal to use before and after non-invasive procedures such as laser treatments, micro-needling, and chemical peels (kindly consult with your dermatologist or physician while using pre- and post-procedure skincare products). You can also use both products in your skincare routine as a power couple to achieve soothed, firm, and rejuvenated skin. We’d recommend using the Peptides & Antioxidants Firming Daily Treatment in your AM routine for glowing and protected skin throughout the day. Then, use the Molecular Barrier Recovery Cream Balm in your PM routine for overnight recovery and hydration.

      PRODUCT INFORMATION

      Our Molecular Barrier Recovery Cream Balm is the first formula we’ve made with such a unique composition, combining the power of a balm with the melty texture of a cream that absorbs in seconds into your skin.

      Compromised skin craves instant comfort, accelerated skin regeneration, and uniformity. This powerful formula is made with a fusion of instantly acting and long-term reparative active ingredients that acts like an all-in-one First Aid kit for your skin. It’s ideal to use before and after non-invasive procedures such as laser treatments, micro-needling, and chemical peels.* This formula also introduces a novel active ingredient: MossCellTec™ in a 2% concentration, it is the first-ever biotechnologically produced moss, which has been studied to enhance and support skin resilience.

      The "Molecular Barrier Recovery Cream Balm" has a beautiful silky texture that seamlessly absorbs after application. It is one of the first products I reach for when my skin barrier is compromised. I find it has an immediate soothing effect, and with repeated use, effectively supports my skin barrier as it recovers from an insult. The Allies of Skin "Molecular Barrier Recovery Cream Balm" contains many of my favorite ingredients that help support skin barrier function including oat protein, niacinamide, ceramides, and panthenol, among several others. This combination is an effective way to soothe a compromised skin barrier.

      In addition to post-procedural treatment, I would recommend the Bandage Balm formula to patients who use prescription acne products or prescription Retinoids. The Molecular Barrier Recovery Cream Balm can be used in combination with acne-targeted prescription products since it's ideal for soothing flareups and addressing dryness, especially when prescriptions are first introduced to your skin.

      Much more than a moisturizer! It nourishes and soothes my mature and sensitive skin. Beautiful formulation and texture, it adsorbs quickly without greasing or clogging pores and it pair so well with my Retinal 0,1% & Peptides Advanced Repair Night Cream. Highly recommended!
