It may not look like it on the surface, but your skin is constantly hard at work. The toughest job of all is of the epidermis, otherwise known as the skin barrier. Much like a security guard for your skin, it’s the job of the skin barrier to prevent problems passing through and to protect what lies beneath. It’s the weakness of this physical shield that is one of the underlying causes of skin sensitivity. A thin, weak, or compromised skin barrier can allow irritants to enter the underlying layers of skin, so building up a strong barrier could be the key to reducing skin sensitivity long term.

A compromised skin barrier needs nourishment to help it bounce back. So, how can you help support your skin’s barrier function and ensure your skin retains as much moisture as possible? The short answer is oils.

Essentially, your skin needs to retain moisture in order to keep its natural ‘glow.’ Facial oils are formulated to provide both hydration and protection against water loss. Oils deliver missing lipids directly to the surface of your skin to help prevent water loss, and when it comes to nourishing skin, the more moisture the merrier. It’s not so much a case of which is the best oil to moisturize skin, but more a case of which are the best combination of oils.

Every one of the oils in our Elixir has been specially selected because of its individual benefit to the skin barrier and they all work in harmony within the formulation to help repair and strengthen it.
