- Nine forms of peptide on one panel, not a single token inclusion
- Coptis Japonica Root Extract on the same panel, the formula's plant extract

## How it works

The panel on this lotion names nine forms of peptide rather than one: Tripeptide-1, Copper Tripeptide-1, Palmitoyl Pentapeptide-4, Palmitoyl Tripeptide-1, Hexapeptide-9, Hexapeptide-11, Acetyl Tetrapeptide-2, Acetyl Tetrapeptide-5, Palmitoyl Tripeptide-5. Tripeptide-1 is the copper-free version of the classic three-amino-acid peptide. It is used for the look of firmness in formulas that avoid copper's blue tint. On this panel it sits alongside Coptis Japonica Root Extract, Corchorus Olitorius Leaf Extract and Daucus Carota Sativa (Carrot) Root Extract. Coptis Japonica is a traditional East Asian medicinal root, bright yellow from its berberine content. In skincare its extract is used for the look of congested, oily skin.

## How to use

1. Use the Skin Barrier Calming Lotion Barrier & Calming as the last skincare step, morning and evening, over serum.
2. Apply a moderate amount to the skin after toning and applying serum to the skin.
3. Serum first, this second, then sunscreen in the morning. On dry skin a richer cream can go over it at night.
4. Twice a day. Do not decant it into a smaller jar to travel with; an emulsion in a pump is packaged that way to keep it stable.

## FAQ

### When should I apply Skin Barrier Calming Lotion Barrier & Calming, 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 Skin Barrier Calming Lotion Barrier & Calming 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 Skin Barrier Calming Lotion Barrier & Calming 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 Skin Barrier Calming Lotion Barrier & Calming 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.

### Is Skin Barrier Calming Lotion Barrier & Calming the authentic Korean-market formula?

Yes, this is the same moisturizer ongredients sells through Korean retail, sourced specifically for Korean Pharmacy's US catalog rather than reformulated for a US shelf. and its original Korean-market batch coding intact. That is the version this brand is actually known for.
