✓ Resets Skin's 24-Hour Cycle | ✓ Replenishes Essential Lipids | ✓ For Dry, Sensitive and Mature Skin

Revision Skincare DermProtect Barrier Defense is an intensive, restorative moisturiser for skin that feels dry, tight or easily stressed. Rather than simply sitting on the surface, it replenishes the essential lipids skin relies on, helps strengthen the look and feel of the skin barrier and supports a balanced microbiome, so skin holds on to moisture for longer. If you are looking for a rich barrier cream that leaves dry, compromised-feeling skin smoother, softer and more comfortable, this is the one to reach for.

What sets it apart is timing. Revision's formula uses Lindera Strychnifolia Root Extract, an ingredient that works with skin's natural 24-hour cycle, helping it defend during the day and renew at night. Alongside it sit Hibiscus Sabdariffa Fruit Extract to boost lipid production, Bacillus Ferment to support natural renewal, and an Epidermal Lipid Blend of three ceramides, cholesterol and phytosphingosine to seal moisture in.

Why This Beats a Standard Moisturiser

Most moisturisers add water and oil and hope for the best. Revision Skincare DermProtect Barrier Defense goes further: it supports skin's own lipid production, encourages a healthy microbiome and helps optimise overall barrier health, which Revision says enhances the performance of every other product in your routine. It is the comfort layer that lets your actives do their job.

Best For

Dry to very dry skin that feels tight after cleansing
Sensitive skin and skin that reacts easily to stronger actives
Mature skin wanting a richer, nourishing night and day cream
Anyone searching for a barrier-supporting moisturiser - Revision Skincare DermProtect Barrier Defense is Revision's most intensive option

As a registered aesthetics nurse with more than two decades in specialist skincare and medical aesthetics, Becci is often asked what to use when skin simply feels uncomfortable. This is one of her go-to suggestions for clients using retinoids or exfoliating acids, because it rebuilds comfort without fighting the rest of the routine.

FAQS

Is Revision Skincare DermProtect Barrier Defense good for very dry skin? +

Yes. Revision describes it as an intensive moisturising cream for dry to very dry, sensitive and mature skin. It replenishes essential lipids and helps reduce water loss, so it suits skin that feels tight or rough even after moisturising.

What does DermProtect Barrier Defense do for the skin barrier? +

It helps reduce skin barrier disruption and supports barrier function by replenishing lipids (three ceramides, cholesterol and phytosphingosine), supporting a balanced microbiome and reducing transepidermal water loss.

What does 'resets skin's 24-hour cycle' mean? +

Skin follows a natural daily rhythm - defending against stressors by day and renewing at night. Lindera Strychnifolia Root Extract helps regulate that rhythm so skin's daytime defence and night-time renewal both work as they should.

Can I use DermProtect Barrier Defense with retinol or vitamin C? +

Yes. Apply it after your treatment products. Revision says optimising barrier health enhances the performance of all your skincare products, so it pairs well with Retinol Complete or C+ Correcting Complex 30%.

Is it suitable for sensitive skin? +

Yes - it is formulated to soothe, calm and revitalise dry or compromised-feeling skin, and Revision lists sensitive skin as a target skin type. As with any new product, patch test first if your skin is very reactive.

Can I use it morning and night? +

Yes. Apply twice daily as the last step before sunscreen in the morning and as your final step at night.

How do I get product out of the 48g jar? +

The jar has a press-down dispenser. Place two fingers either side of the opening on the top of the jar and gently press down to dispense one to two pumps.

Is Revision Skincare DermProtect Barrier Defense the best moisturiser for a damaged-feeling skin barrier? +

It is Revision's most intensive barrier moisturiser and a strong choice if your skin feels dry, tight or easily irritated. If your skin is oily or you prefer something lighter, the HA HydraSerum+ may suit you better.

Is DermProtect Barrier Defense safe to use during pregnancy or breastfeeding? +

Revision does not publish specific pregnancy guidance for this product. It contains no retinoids, but please show the full ingredient list to your midwife or GP before using it during pregnancy or while breastfeeding.
