Soothing
I use this barrier support serum at night after using an acid based serum. This does seem to help soothe my skin and lessens the harsh affect of acid treatments. I use a rich night cream on top as it is not moisturising enough if used alone. It’s ok but probably wouldn’t repurchase.

OK serum?
I love The Ordinary products (particularly the hyaluronic acid). As someone who has red and dry skin, and after reading the great reviews for this Soothing & Barrier Support Serum, I was really looking forward to trying it. However it has made no difference to the redness and if anything I've found it very drying on my skin. I much prefer the hyaluronic serum so will return to this.

Reduced redness and skin feels soothed
As someone that struggles with redness in skin after a couple of weeks I noticed this seemed much more reduced in appearance and skin felt soothed. Applies easily and good to include in skincare if using retinols to keep the balance in repairing skin

Soothing but not repairing
I liked this product, it left my skin feeling smooth and it felt soothing but unfortunately it did not help to repair my dry, sensitive patches as expected. Pros: Skin felt softer Smoothing effect on face and decollete Pink colour left a brightening effect Reduced redness on chest Good price point Cons: Slightly tacky on application Did not repair areas of concern
