The INKEY ListEctoin Hydro-Barrier Serum
Highlights
This is not just another barrier serum. Combining the power of leading barrier science with advanced hydration, NEW Ectoin Hydro-Barrier Serum is your daily non-negotiable for the ultimate healthy-looking skin. Clinically proven to deeply hydrate and strengthen the skin's barrier in 15 minutes, get ready for visibly bouncier and smoother skin in just 7 days.
A breakthrough in barrier skincare, the dual-action formula is proven to deliver hydration up to 10 surface layers deep. Hero ingredient Ectoin simultaneously boosts hydration whilst helping to build barrier strength to keep your skin functioning at its best. The addition of multi-molecular Hyaluronic Acid and a 1% barrier blend helps to restore the protective skin barrier from the outside in, enabling it to retain hydration more effectively. With continued daily use, Ectoin Hydro-Barrier Serum helps to visibly improve 5 signs of a compromised skin barrier: dryness, flakiness, dullness, redness, and slackness.
The milky, lightweight texture effortlessly sinks into the skin leaving an immediate veil of hydration. The fast-absorbing, non-tacky formula layers perfectly under other skincare and makeup. Suitable for use as part of the AM and PM routine.
Directions
Use twice daily, AM & PM. Always use as your first serum after cleansing.
Apply a pea-sized amount to face and neck and follow with preferred treatments and moisturizer to seal the benefits into skin. Always finish with SPF for your AM routine.
INKEY TIP: Apply to damp skin to help lock in hydration

Love!
I love this. I use as my first step after cleansing every morning and it has really helped sort my barrier. I was struggling with tight, dry skin before but this serum has transformed my skin.

Great Product
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this for my daughter who has oily skin and is prone to breakouts. She raves about it, saying it keeps her oiliness under control and is perfect under makeup

Hate the packaging
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Decent product . Sinks nicely into my skin and it feels smooth . I hate the industrial strength plastic bottle. Serious hard work to pump it out . It’s going to be in a landfill for thousands of years. Body shop use glass bottles and droppers and although their products are more expensive I will go back to them after I finish this .

Not sure if its working
I had a sample and loved it at first but then I bought a full-size, I've been through 2 now and I don't know if it's actually doing anything. My skin is looking good but I haven't used it for a while and its not gone bad again so not sure if it actually works
