## How it works

A moisturizer's core job is occlusion: forming a layer that slows the water already in skin from evaporating, while carrying its named ingredients into that top layer as it settles. MLE Skin Barrier Cream leads with Butyrospermum Parkii Butter, shea butter, a fatty-acid-rich emollient that seals in moisture and softens texture. It is joined by Squalane, a plant- or sugarcane-derived emollient that mirrors skin's own squalene to soften and seal in moisture without a greasy after-feel. Further down the list, Allantoin rounds out the formula as a comfrey-derived soothing and conditioning agent that softens rough texture. Used consistently as part of a full routine, this is where ATOPALM's formula earns its place rather than as a one-off treatment.

## How to use

1. Use the MLE Skin Barrier Cream after showering, while skin is still damp.
2. Use after cleansing or shower. Take generous amount and spread over face, neck, arms and legs.
3. It goes on over nothing and under nothing. Damp skin straight out of the shower is the state it works from.
4. Once or twice a day. Do not wait until skin has fully dried; the water on the surface is part of what the layer holds in.

## FAQ

### When should I apply MLE Skin Barrier Cream, morning, night, or both?

This is formulated for both, as the last step of a standard AM and PM routine after serum or essence. Morning use seals in hydration under SPF and makeup; night use works while skin is in its natural overnight recovery cycle. Most people get the fullest benefit using it consistently at both times rather than just one.

### How much MLE Skin Barrier Cream should I use per application?

A dime- to nickel-sized amount is enough for the whole face for most people; press it in rather than rubbing hard. Very dry skin or a cold, dry climate may need slightly more, especially at night. Using more than that mostly sits on the surface rather than absorbing any faster.

### Will MLE Skin Barrier Cream feel too heavy or greasy for oily skin?

The finish depends on the specific formula, but a moisturizer's job either way is to seal in the hydration from earlier steps rather than add oil on its own. Oily or combination skin can apply a thinner layer or focus it on drier areas of the face rather than skipping moisturizer entirely. Skipping a moisturizer step usually increases oil production rather than reducing it, since skin overcompensates for the moisture loss.

### Can MLE Skin Barrier Cream be used under makeup?

Yes, apply it as the last skincare step and give it a minute or two to settle before starting makeup, since applying foundation over a still-wet cream is what usually causes pilling. If a formula still feels tacky after a couple of minutes, a lighter layer next time will resolve that. It should not interfere with SPF or makeup once it has absorbed.
