Why Barrier Repair Is Essential for Sensitive Skin

Why Barrier Repair Is Essential for Sensitive Skin

When your barrier is healthy, your skin feels:

✅ Calm
✅ Smooth
✅ Hydrated
✅ Resilient

For those of us with sensitive skin, barrier health is everything. It’s the foundation of a routine that works long-term—not just for short-term hydration, but for lasting comfort and strength.


How to Repair a Damaged Skin Barrier

Here’s how to give your skin the support it needs:

1. Use Barrier-Boosting Ingredients

Look for:

  • Ceramides – help rebuild the lipid matrix

  • Hyaluronic Acid – plumps and deeply hydrates

  • Centella Asiatica (Cica) – soothes irritation

  • Squalane – a non-comedogenic oil that mimics your skin’s natural sebum

💡 Vintage Noon’s Vacation Skin Overnight Mask includes Cica, ceramides, and hydrating botanicals that work while you sleep to restore balance.

2. Simplify Your Routine

Less is more. Avoid layering too many active ingredients, which can overstimulate already vulnerable skin.

3. Avoid Harsh Ingredients

Say no to:
❌ Alcohol-heavy toners
❌ Physical exfoliants (scrubs)
❌ Artificial fragrance
