IMPERATIVE FOR ALL SKIN. Reestablishes + maintains barrier function, essential for a radiant complexion.
1oz | 30ml
KRISTINA HOLEY intended this product to be initially used for clients with weakened barrier layers, but found through client trials that every-one reported an increase in comfort in their skin, less need for heavy moisturizers, and an absence of dryness even in extreme conditions.
The key to healthy skin is water balance of the stratum corneum. This groundbreaking serum maintains barrier function in two ways.
First, it replaces NATURAL MOISTURIZING FACTOR, a collection of water soluble compounds which keep skin cells hydrated.
Secondly, it prevents loss of NMF via a liposomal sealing system that traps water molecules instead of letting them absorb into the lower layers of the epidermis.
Balances moisture levels, eliminating dry, dehydrated skin.
Corrects inflammation, including acne, dermatitis and even aging.
Relieves dermatitis-related conditions (allergic and atopic), and fortifies sensitive and rosacea-prone skin.
CERAMIDES Lipid molecules within cell membranes, they help cells form a protective layer that plumps skin and retains moisture.
PLANKTON EXTRACT restructures the skin matrix for improved barrier function.
SODIUM HYALURONATE Occurs naturally in skin, maintaining its moisture and elasticity. This large molecule can’t fully penetrate the skin’s outer layers to fill wrinkles, yet it’s a wonderful humectant, holding up to 1000x its own weight in water.
L-ARGININE Also known as L-glutamine, this amino acid is proven to play an important role in the growth of fibroblast cells.
SODIUM PCA A humectant found in human skin has high water absorbing properties, and the ability to absorb moisture from the air.
PHOSPHATIDYL SERINE Some studies show topical application slows wrinkling by inhibiting enzymes that break down collagen.
MAGNESIUM CHLORIDE May help alleviate dryness/inflammation in magnesium deficient skin by increasing elasticity and moisture.

I’ve always dealt with inflamed acne-prone skin. When I went off birth control about 4 years ago it was the worst it had ever been and I’ve been attempting to rebalance it ever since (hello Benzol peroxide treatments). I’ve been using Marie Veronique products for nearly 5 months now and am so happy with my skin and this company. I use the E.O free cleanser, balancing hypotonic, gentle retinol serum, intensive repair serum, barrier restore serum, treatment oil, and sunscreen. I’d say it took around 3 months for me to see a noticeable, improved difference, and it did get worse before it got better (likely due to stopping BP cold turkey). My skin is now supple, even, has a glow, and if I do get an occasional spot, it heals so fast. I’m sure with continued use I’ll start to see the faint scarring and marks fade more as well. Also used to always have texture on my forehead and it’s so smooth now. Highly highly recommend (just wish it didn’t cost me the same as my rent every month🤠)
I've already received compliments on my complexion after only using it for two weeks.
I have been using this for about 2 weeks. I have very sensitive skin, having periodic flares of perioral dermatitis since age 14. It got so bad in the last few years that I needed to clear it with minocycline. Subsequently I read James Hamblin’s book and quit using anything on my skin except my microfibre cloth and water. My skin had been completely clear which is lovely, but it was starting to look dry. This serum makes it look more hydrated and healthy. No reactions whatsoever. Very happy so far!
Great stuff. Absorbs well and makes my skin feel hydrated and happy.
Great serum. Have used it for many years.
