Ceramides for stronger, calmer, and more hydrated skin
The Skin Barrier Ginkgo Gel Cream formula was designed with a clear objective: to restore and strengthen the skin barrier to maintain hydrated, balanced skin that is resilient to external aggressions. At the heart of this formula are ceramides combined with an anti-pollution complex.
Ceramides are lipids found naturally in the skin, making up to 50% of its composition. If we imagine the skin's structure as a mosaic, where each piece fits together perfectly, we can better understand their function. In this context, ceramides act as the " glue " that holds cells together, ensuring a cohesive, smooth, and uniform surface. Their role is crucial in preventing tissue dryness, thus preserving an intact and healthy skin barrier.
In our formula, we combine two complementary types of ceramides: Ceramide III , which strengthens and repairs the skin's structure, preventing water loss and protecting against irritants, and Glucosyl Ceramide , which not only acts as a ceramide but also functions as a precursor, releasing ceramides into the skin. This makes it an effective moisturizer, noticeably improving skin hydration and elasticity.
This synergy enhances the skin's ability to stay hydrated, supple, and protected throughout the day.
Additionally, the anti-pollution complex present in Skin Barrier Ginkgo Gel Cream helps to effectively counteract the environmental impact thanks to the combined action of mechanical protection through film-forming agents, the neutralization of reactive species, and the biological cellular protection provided by ginkgo biloba.
The result is a highly effective and skin-friendly formula that deeply hydrates, soothes, protects, and visibly strengthens the skin barrier from the first application.
For those whose skin feels tight, dehydrated, or prone to sensitivity, and who are looking for a light yet effective moisturizer that helps strengthen the skin barrier and restore comfort.
The Skin Barrier Ginkgo Gel Cream formula is designed to protect against water loss, soothe reactivity and improve the skin's natural resilience .
It is also ideal if you are looking for a melting gel texture that is instantly absorbed without leaving a greasy residue , providing an immediate cooling effect and long-lasting hydration that leaves the skin elastic and revitalized from the first application.
Skin Barrier Ginkgo Gel Cream has been formulated with soothing active ingredients such as ginkgo biloba and bisabolol, and has been dermatologically tested to ensure tolerance and effectiveness even on the most delicate skin .
Its light and refreshing melting gel texture glides smoothly over the skin, leaving a pleasant sensation of juiciness and allowing for a pleasant application massage that promotes the absorption of the active ingredients without harming or sensitizing.
This consistency is ideal for normal to dry skin, even the most reactive, as it provides immediate hydration that can be felt from the first use , relieving tightness and strengthening the skin barrier.
After days of continued use, the skin looks more balanced, elastic and protected , with a feeling of prolonged comfort and a visibly healthier and juicier appearance.
HOW TO USE IT
Skin Barrier Ginkgo Gel Cream can be used daily, morning and night, after cleansing, without the risk of overloading the skin. Its formula is designed to provide continuous hydration and reinforcement of the skin barrier, even for sensitive or reactive skin.
Apply a small amount to clean, dry skin, gently spreading it with your fingertips using upward movements from the center of your face to the sides. You can take a few seconds to massage the cream, especially into the most dehydrated or tight areas, thus promoting the absorption of the active ingredients and improving superficial microcirculation.
Use it as the last step in your facial routine before sunscreen , after a serum or specific treatment, to seal in hydration and create a protective barrier against everyday external aggressions.

If your skin is normal to dry, no problem. If you have combination skin, we recommend using it at night, and if after a few days of testing, you find your skin adapts well to it, you can also include it in your morning routine.
Yes, and if you're wondering which comes first, moisturizer or sunscreen, the answer is moisturizer. The only thing to keep in mind is that we recommend waiting about 15 minutes before applying your sunscreen.
Normal to dry skin types can use it both in winter and summer. Ginkgo Gel Cream hydrates and nourishes without overloading, allowing your skin to breathe and always in balance with its microbiome. If you have combination skin, we recommend starting by using it only once a day (ideally at night) and observing how your skin responds before including it in your morning routine.
It's clear that well-hydrated skin helps prevent makeup from caking and lasts longer. Its dewy finish, quick penetration, and soothing action make Ginkgo Gel Cream the perfect foundation for easy makeup application. See for yourself.
