FACE

Eye Cream

LIP

Lip Treatment

This is a thick, glossy lip treatment with excellent broadspectrum protection against the UV rays.▶ 14:43–14:47
It's got licorice root. It has buchial. So buchial is an antioxidant. Great for the environmental aggressors of the lips. Ceramides for the moisture barrier, which is hanging on by a thread on our lips.▶ 14:49–14:54
It's got a blend of emollient, shea butter, cacao butter. Very hydrating, very protective.▶ 15:01–15:07

SKINCARE

Body

It's got a variety of compounds from cantella which again good for healing recovery niacinamide glutathione fragrance-free really gentle formula that generates a nice luxurious lather.▶ 11:56–12:01
It rinses off the skin really efficiently so that you don't have cleanser residue lingering behind that could further impair the barrier.▶ 12:29–12:33
I highly recommend that body wash.

Cleanser

This is the one that I think is probably the gentlest most soothing facial cleanser to just really comfort your face when you have an impaired barrier.▶ 2:56–3:02
It's free of fragrance it has this silky slippery texture it has yam root extract which is rich in humant that are going to help with retaining and replenishing moisture in your impaired skin barrier.▶ 3:04–3:15
It gently removes dirt debris residue from the surface of the skin gentle enough to use around delicate eyelid skin rinses off easily.▶ 3:18–3:26
It has 0.5% salicylic acid. That is on the lower end of what you often find. Don't be alarmed. That can still be very effective, but in contrast to higher percentages tends to be a lot less irritating, a lot less drying.▶ 8:20–8:32
It may not work as rapidly as higher percentages for like in acne for example, but it's one of those slow and steady wins the race as far as improving skin texture, reducing blackhead and white head formation, calming down inflammation and also hastening the clearance of hyperpigmentation.▶ 8:34–8:41
It is generally well tolerated and this product can actually be used twice a day.▶ 8:54–9:01

Face Mask

It's the Abib barrier jelly. It builds itself as a mask but really it's an amazing glycerin base skin protectant.▶ 12:51–12:59
It's a very thick, rich, clear, colorless, fragrance-free jelly of glycerin as well as lactobacillus and rice ferment.▶ 12:59–13:08
It's not greasy but it is sticky, so when you put it on just be prepared it's sticky and it takes a while for it to sink down and dry down.▶ 13:25–13:34

Moisturizer

It's very rich, it's very thick, very similar ingredient profile both of these free of fragrance.▶ 6:42–6:53
This cream is excellent in that situation because if you've ever been there you know not only is it very uncomfortable but also your neck starts to look well not as youthful as you might like when the skin becomes dry due to an impaired barrier.▶ 7:13–7:21
It's not greasy, it's not oppressively heavy but it definitely is rich. It's really good for just really coming in and stepping up to the needs of what your skin is looking for when you have sensitivity, redness, all of those manifestations of an impaired barrier.▶ 7:26–7:31
The cream is not just a thick version of the toner. No, no, no, no, no. It's actually a very lightweight gel texture.▶ 4:36–4:43
Any one of these products would be wonderful for supporting the needs of the skin barrier, calming the skin, and helping to support clearance of uneven skin tone, just brighten up and smooth skin texture.▶ 5:53–6:00
They're all very lightweight. They're not oily. They're not greasy.
I have been recommending for years and years and years, the fragrance-free one.▶ 6:46–6:51
I swear it has this instant plumping hydrating effect.▶ 6:51–6:56
And it likely has to do with the hyaluronic acid, which helps to improve the dryness, the irritation that one might experience from their very effective stabilized retinol.▶ 6:54–7:01
face moisturizer · $14.25
This is a richer gel cream but it's still very lightweight richer than the tikka gel cream that we talked about earlier.▶ 11:43–11:47
The key ingredients here are going to be that poly glutamic acid along with sodium hyaluronate the salt of hyaluronic acid. Plus the soothing and anti-inflammatory nyioinomide and licorice root▶ 11:49–11:55
This is very hydrating, very soothing. It really helps to improve overall skin texture.▶ 12:04–12:08

Serum

facial serum · natural · $15.50–$22.00
Very minimal ingredient list which you know having a lot of ingredients in a product isn't necessarily a bad thing but it's nice to have a really simple formula especially when you may be very sensitive trying to keep your routine very minimal.▶ 4:55–4:59
This is so hydrating, so soothing. It is like a hug on your face.▶ 5:54–6:01
When you have an impaired barrier, products that you put on your face they are likely to sting, to burn. This is very much quite the opposite.

SPF

This is a chemical sunscreen. There is no white cast. It is very rich, it is a thicker formula.▶ 9:55–10:04
It also has niacinamide, which is going to be good for supporting the needs of the barrier. It's an antioxidant, so helpful for warding off oxidative stress in the setting of UV exposure, helpful for redness.▶ 10:13–10:17
It's very rich and thick in comparison to many other Korean sunscreens that I have reviewed.▶ 10:33–10:38
I reviewed this a couple of months ago really have enjoyed it I'm on my second bottle at this point.▶ 10:45–10:53
This formula is a bit more lightweight but also very hydrating very moisturizing really good for dry skin sensitivity.▶ 11:03–11:10
It has hyaluronic acid which helps with moisture retention and it has beta glucan a humectant so really wonderful hydrating more lightweight formula.▶ 11:10–11:19
The filters in this are amazing. All right, excellent broadspectctrum UV protection.▶ 15:57–16:01
The overall formula is so nice for a sunscreen. It is a gel, but it's hydrating at the same time.▶ 16:06–16:15
It's a chemical sunscreen. It doesn't burn or sting. It's very, very, very, very easy to tolerate on eyelid skin where you need to be putting sunscreen.▶ 16:15–16:20
sunscreen · natural · $14.40–$19.00
Sunscreen that carried me through the month of August in Houston, yes, Inua SPF 50, water resistant, zero, literally zero in the name, zero white cast.
I like chemical sunscreens, that is what this is.
It's great in humidity because it'll stay on the skin a little bit better and not sweat into your eyes as quickly.
What I like about this is it has a green tint to it, which is great for color correction of redness.▶ 9:21–9:26
This also has some antioxidants in it, which are helpful for soothing the skin.▶ 9:26–9:33
This would be a great formula for anyone who likes mineral sunscreens, but does not want that chalky, thick, pasty texture that many mineral sunscreens can offer.▶ 9:33–9:37

Toner

toner · dewy · $20.99
Astragalus root extract is really the name of the game here. 91.3% to be precise.▶ 18:55–19:00
Astragalus root extract rich in hydrating compounds to help with that water retention. Also very soothing, anti-inflammatory, barrier supporting.▶ 18:58–19:08
This is a product that drives results and happy users. I have not really heard people say anything bad about this.▶ 19:10–19:18

HAIR

Conditioner

Hair Treatment

Shampoo

I'm glad SheaMoisture has not discontinued these salicylic acid shampoos.▶ 11:12–11:18
If you have scalp psoriasis or dandruff, this is great.▶ 11:16–11:24
Also, if you have a child who has ringworm in the scalp, this is not going to cure it, but it definitely is a good thing to use. It helps the medications work a little better to use a salicylic acid shampoo.▶ 11:21–11:27
Other option is selenium sulfide, which can perform in some cases for some people better than zinc pythone.▶ 14:12–14:16
So, if you've got dandruff and you've tried Head & Shoulders and you're not getting anywhere with it, try their selenium sulfide containing shampoos or try Cels and Blue, their competitor.▶ 14:18–14:21
Some people respond better to it than zinc pythone for their dandruff.▶ 14:14–14:20

nail treatment · matte · $26.99
It's truly a gamechanger for bringing back resuscitating your nails, fingernails and toenails.▶ 0:56–1:02
It is lactic acid and urea. These are phenomenal for the nail plate, the skin around the nails because they help to improve nail plate hydration and they also help to improve the normal turnover processes of the skin cells around the nail.▶ 1:05–1:13
Amazing for really resuscitating that and helping to get the nail plate to smooth out.▶ 2:20–2:24
