Anua Barrier Reboot Intensive Cream 100ml
Deep Hydration & Barrier Care for Dry, Sensitive Skin
Give dry, sensitive and moisture-depleted skin intensive daily care with the Anua Barrier Reboot Intensive Cream 100ml.
This rich Korean moisturizer was co-developed with dermatologists and is designed to provide long-lasting hydration while supporting the skin's natural moisture barrier. Anua's formula combines Ceramide Activators, Ceramide NP, Panthenol, Squalane, Cholesterol and Madecassoside for comprehensive barrier-focused skincare.
120-Hour Hydration
Anua states that its Airysilk™ Technology creates a breathable protective layer that delivers deep-rooted moisture and is clinically proven to sustain hydration for up to 120 hours.
Ceramide-Activating Formula
The formula contains ingredients including phytosphingosine, cholesterol, sphingolipids, glycolipids and Ceramide NP. Anua's Ceramide Activator concept is designed to support the skin's own ceramide production and help promote a stronger, more resilient-looking barrier over time.
Rich But Breathable
Although this is the richer Intensive Cream version of the Barrier Reboot line, Anua describes its texture as dense yet not heavy. The cream melts on contact and leaves a breathable finish without a white cast or residue.
Ideal For Dry & Sensitive Skin
The cream is especially well suited to skin that feels:
- Dry
- Tight
- Dehydrated
- Rough
- Sensitive
- Moisture-depleted
- In need of richer barrier care
It is also identified by Anua as non-comedogenic and suitable for breakout-prone skin.
