Dr Althea 147 Barrier Cream (50ml), a rich, deep-moisturizing cream designed to restore a damaged skin barrier and provide intensive relief for sensitive, dry, or irritated skin. 
  • What is the item
    A highly concentrated barrier-repairing cream with a thick, ointment-like texture that melts into the skin. It is formulated with the "147 Complex" (representing specific ratios of soothing and nourishing ingredients) to provide a protective shield over the skin, preventing moisture loss and calming external sensitivity.
  • Benefits
    • Intensive Barrier Repair: Specifically formulated to fix a compromised or "broken" skin barrier caused by over-exfoliation or environmental stress.
    • 24-Hour Hydration: Provides long-lasting moisture that sinks deep into the dermis to alleviate internal dryness.
    • Immediate Soothing: Quickly reduces redness, stinging, and inflammation.
    • Skin Protection: Forms a breathable protective film that guards against pollutants and irritants.
    • Improves Resilience: Regular use makes the skin less reactive and more capable of holding onto moisture.
  • Who and how to use this product
    • Who: Best for dry, very dry, and hypersensitive skin types. It is also the "emergency" cream for anyone dealing with a damaged barrier or skin that feels tight and flaky.
    • How: Use as the final step of your evening routine, or in the morning if you have very dry skin.
      1. Take an appropriate amount (it is rich, so a little goes a long way).
      2. Warm it between your fingertips to soften the texture.
      3. Gently press and massage it into the face and neck.
      4. In the morning, follow with a broad-spectrum sunscreen.
  • Ingredients
    • Key ingredients:
      • Ceramide NP: Crucial lipids that fill in the "cracks" in the skin barrier to lock in moisture.
      • Panthenol (Pro-Vitamin B5): Deeply hydrates and acts as an anti-inflammatory agent.
      • Argan Kernel Oil & Shea Butter: Provide rich fatty acids to nourish and soften dry skin.
      • Guaiazulene: A component extracted from Chamomile oil that gives a natural blue tint (in some versions) and provides powerful soothing.
      • Sodium Hyaluronate: For multi-depth hydration.
    • Rest of ingredients: Water, Glycerin, Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride, Hydrogenated Lecithin, Squalane, and various botanical extracts like Paeonia Albiflora Root Extract.
  • What it best combines with
    • Dr. Althea 345 Relief Cream: You can use the 345 Cream in the morning (lighter) and the 147 Cream at night (richer) for a complete 24-hour cycle.
    • Gentle Hydrating Toners: Pairs perfectly with the Anua Heartleaf 77% Toner to calm the skin before applying this heavy moisture seal.
    • Retinol/Actives: This is an excellent "buffer" or recovery cream to use after applying strong actives to prevent the skin from drying out.
    • Sunscreen: Essential for daytime use to protect the skin barrier from UV damage.
