Barrier Adaptogen Toner

Peterson's Lab Thick Skin Barrier Repair Essence Water 2.0 is a multifunctional essence water specifically formulated for sensitive and compromised skin barriers. It addresses seasonal sensitivity, redness, flaking, stinging, and dullness caused by late nights or stress, helping to calm, repair, and brighten the skin for a healthier, more resilient complexion.

Key Ingredients & Formulation
✦ 2% Tranexamic Acid: A skin-conditioning agent that helps soothe the look of redness and irritation, while also promoting a more even and brighter skin tone.
✦ 20% Centella Asiatica Leaf Filtrate: Replaces purified water as the formula's base. This powerful botanical extract is known for its soothing and reparative properties, helping to calm sensitivity and enhance the skin barrier.
✦ Proprietary Water-Soluble Ceramide: An upgraded version of the brand's signature ceramide. It replenishes intercellular lipids to help repair the skin's moisture barrier, effectively "thickening" the skin's protective layer.
✦ Caper Fruit Extract: Provides smart hydration to help regulate and maintain the skin's optimal moisture balance.

Clinical Results
In a clinical study on 30 subjects with sensitive skin, after 28 days of use:
✦ Skin tolerance improved significantly by +64.91%.
✦ Cheek redness decreased by -28.33%.
✦ Cheek stratum corneum hydration increased by +56.29%.
✦ Papule (acne) count decreased by -55.56%.

Texture & Feel
The essence water has a lightweight, watery consistency that is not sticky or tacky. It absorbs quickly into the skin, providing a fresh, cooling sensation, making it suitable for daily use and layering.

How to Use
Use morning and night after cleansing. Apply a moderate amount to the face and neck, patting gently until absorbed. For intensive soothing, soak a cotton pad and apply as a compress on irritated areas for 5-10 minutes.
