    IMPERATIVE FOR ALL SKIN. Reestablishes + maintains barrier function, essential for a radiant complexion.

    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.

    Benefits

    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.

    Ingredients

    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.

      Plump & balanced skin

      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🤠)

      Baby Soft Skin

      Skin has been both dry and congested since going off retinol & BHA's (for pregnancy). Tried a different (highly celebrity endorsed...) natural brand that made my skin much worse. So glad I trusted Marie Veronique (the OG natural, science-backed skincare). Using the Barrier Restore Serum at night, and the C E Ferulic serum in the morning (using both AM & PM was much), my skin honestly feels baby soft. And I haven't had a single breakout, not even the usual menstrual acne. Relieved I've found a pregnancy safe skin care that works.

      So hyrdating!

      Amazing serum, makes my skin feel so nourished. I have struggled with break outs, but also have very dry skin, and this makes my face feel so good. Love it!

      If you have perioral dermatitis…

      You need this. I bought it based on recommendations from other reviewers and so far it has been the only thing that has really helped. I’m back on antibiotics currently (this is my second bout) but while I was waiting for an appointment with my derm this stuff kept me sane. I truly believe it helps maintain the integrity of the skin barrier, but it also reduces redness so much. This is the first and only MV product I’ve tried, now I’m curious to see how the others perform.
