CACTUS CERAMIDE FORTIFYING MILK TONER Equalrxn Skin

Preservation and protection are just as important, if not more important, than repairing the skin barrier. 

In a world where brands compete for unnecessarily highly concentrated products, we must take precautions to preserve and strengthen our barrier health.  

Formulated with 10% barrier-centric hydrators, cactus extract, ceramide NP, and 0.5% bisabolol, Cactus Ceramide Fortifying Milk forms a protective second barrier, sealing hydration from within as well as protecting the skin from stressors. This milky toning essence fortifies a more resilient skin barrier, promoting a plump, soft, and dewy complexion.

PRESERVES AND PROTECTS  Prioritizing the proactive maintenance of skin barrier health is more important than resorting to repairs, as the latter implies that the barrier is already impaired.

CALMS + HYDRATES + REINFORCE  Cactus Ceramide Fortifying Milk takes a proactive stance in preserving skin barrier integrity by utilizing a three-pronged approach: calming with 0.5% bisabolol, enriching with cactus extract for hydration, and reinforcing with ceramide NP for support.

10% BARRIER-CENTRIC HYDRATORS  Caring about the skin barrier, they’ve used hydration known to impact the skin barrier, such as ectoin, D-panthenol, and beta-glucan in this formulation.

CREATING A “SECOND SKIN” The milky essence creates a cushion that reduces moisture loss while also helping to minimize the potential irritation that may arise from the use of skin treatments, including acids and retinoids.

The benefits of lactobionic acid are further enhanced with oat milk and snow mushroom polysaccharide to repair, reduce redness, and plump up the skin to reduce the appearance of pores and fine lines, it’s truly an all-in-one serum.
