## How it works

A barrier cream is the final leave on step and is built to stay on the surface rather than absorb away. Humectants sit high on this list and lipids lower, so the finish is comfortable rather than heavy. The film that remains is what slows water leaving the skin, which is why applying it over slightly damp skin makes a real difference. A watery gel finishes absorbing in minutes and cannot hold that position on dry skin. Judge it on whether the cheeks still feel comfortable four or five hours later.

## How to use

1. Use it as the final leave on step, after any toner or serum has settled.
2. Press a small amount over the face with flat hands rather than rubbing it in.
3. Carry the same amount onto the neck, which is the area most routines leave out.
4. Do not apply it to fully dry skin, since a film works better over a slightly damp surface.

## FAQ

### What is IUNIK Beta-Glucan 3X Barrier Cream?

It is an everyday barrier moisturiser from IUNIK, used as the final leave on step of a routine. Humectants sit high on the ingredient list and lipids lower, so the finish is comfortable rather than heavy. It suits dry or sensitive skin.

### Which ingredients does it contain?

The manufacturer list names Panthenol fifth, with Niacinamide, Butyrospermum Parkii Butter, Beta-Glucan, Ectoin, Adenosine, Ceramide NP, Phytosphingosine and Tocopherol also present. We read that from the list for this product rather than from another item in the range.

### Is it rich enough for very dry skin?

For most dry skin, yes, particularly with a hydrating toner underneath. In deep winter you may want an overnight mask over the top. Two thin layers of this is usually a better first adjustment than switching to a heavier cream.

### Can I use it under sunscreen?

Yes. Press it in, wait until the surface is dry to the touch, then apply sunscreen as the last morning step. Pilling under sunscreen is nearly always a matter of layering too quickly rather than a fault in the cream.

### Is it suitable for sensitive skin?

It is positioned for exactly that, and the ingredient list is built around humectants and lipids rather than actives. Patch test on the jaw for two nights first anyway. Introduce it on its own rather than alongside another new product.
