PRIORI LCA fx140 Barrier Restore Complex – The oil-free barrier repair moisturiser that strengthens and restores weakened skin whilst delivering 24-hour lightweight hydration.

If your skin barrier has been compromised – whether from over-exfoliation, environmental stress, post-procedure sensitivity, or simply reactive skin that struggles to retain moisture – this silky-smooth emulsion delivers targeted repair without heaviness or greasiness. PRIORI's proprietary 2% LCA Complex combines pH-correct lactic acid with vitamins A, C, E and Pro-vitamin A to simultaneously renew and protect, whilst ceramides and essential fatty acids rebuild the skin's natural defences.

What sets this apart from standard moisturisers is its adaptive approach – the formula works intuitively to address your skin's specific needs, focusing on barrier restoration and soothing irritation rather than simply sitting on the surface.

FAQS

What does "barrier restore" actually mean – and how do I know if I need it? +

Your skin barrier is the outermost layer of skin that locks in moisture and keeps irritants out. When it's compromised, you'll notice signs like persistent dryness, redness, sensitivity, tightness after cleansing, or products stinging that never used to.

Common culprits include over-exfoliating, using too many actives at once, harsh weather, or post-procedure recovery. This moisturiser uses ceramides, cholesterol, and essential fatty acids – the same lipids naturally found in healthy skin – to rebuild that protective layer.

Is this moisturiser suitable for oily or acne-prone skin? +

Yes – the oil-free formula makes it ideal for oily and acne-prone skin types. It provides barrier-strengthening hydration without clogging pores or adding greasiness.

The lightweight texture absorbs quickly and won't leave a heavy residue, making it comfortable for those who typically avoid moisturisers due to congestion concerns.

Can I use this after a chemical peel or professional treatment? +

Absolutely – this is one of its best uses. The anti-irritant complex helps calm post-procedure inflammation while ceramides support the healing process.

Apply 1-2 times daily to help:

Reduce redness and irritation
Support faster recovery
Prevent moisture loss during the healing period

It's also suitable after microneedling, laser treatments, and similar procedures – though always follow your practitioner's specific aftercare advice.

What results can I expect and when? +

Most users notice their skin feeling calmer and more comfortable within the first week. Improved moisture retention and reduced sensitivity typically become apparent after 2-3 weeks of consistent use.

For significant barrier repair (particularly if you've been over-exfoliating or experiencing chronic sensitivity), give it 4-6 weeks to see cumulative improvements in skin resilience and texture.

Can I layer this with my other skincare products? +

Yes – this works well within a multi-step routine. Apply after water-based serums (vitamin C, niacinamide, hyaluronic acid) and before SPF in the morning.

In the evening, it can be used over retinol products, though if your skin is particularly irritated, you may want to skip actives temporarily and use this alone to support recovery.

How long will one bottle last? +

The 50ml bottle typically lasts 2-3 months with twice-daily use on face, neck, and décolletage. Because the formula is concentrated, you only need 1-2 pumps per application – a little goes a long way.
