Barrier Renewal Complex

This advanced formula works to visibly minimize the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles while significantly improving skin texture, tone, and pore size.

A selected blend of ceramides and other essential lipids helps strengthen the barrier and restore its natural hydration system. Enzymes and vitamins minimize the appearance of redness and promote skin cell turnover. Within 21 days, skin appears softer, smoother, healthier, and more youthful. EltaMD Barrier Renewal Complex is fragrance-free, paraben-free, sensitivity-free, and noncomedogenic.
