Skin types

Your skin speaks. Learn to understand it.

Every skin is different, and what works for a friend might not work for you. Whether you're battling a lifelong problem or just noticing that your skin has been behaving differently lately, the first step is always the same: understanding what's truly happening beneath the surface.

We've prepared an overview of the seven most common skin types and problems, backed by scientific data, not impressions. For each, you'll find what research says about it, why common cosmetics aren't enough, and how we approach it.

Choose what applies to you:

• Dry skin – when skin feels tight, flakes, and classic cream only lasts a few hours
• Sensitive skin – when even products that used to be fine now burn
• Oily skin – when shine and breakouts return even after years of calm
• Atopic skin (eczema) – chronic itching and red patches, clinically proven solution
• TSW – topical steroid withdrawal – what happens when corticosteroids that once helped stop working
• Psoriasis – an autoimmune disease where nutrition and psyche also play a role
• Ichthyosis – the most common hereditary skin condition that almost no one talks about
• Rosacea – redness that has a life of its own, connected to diet and stress

Regardless of which of these applies to you, they all have one thing in common: your skin barrier needs support rather than stress. And that's exactly what we base the entire Barrier Boost line on.
