The Ordinary Soothing & Barrier Support Serum Is Pretty Expensive

The Ordinary Soothing & Barrier Support Serum ($17) is pretty expensive. I see you, Deciem! The prices on some of your newest releases have been climbing higher and higher lately. What would Brandon think? That being said, you’re still a fairly priced skincare brand so, we’ll see about excusing the sudden price increase!
The Ordinary Soothing & Barrier Support Serum is coming soon and you may want to check it out if you’re skin is in need of a little TLC. What the heck is a skin barrier anyway? It’s the first layer of your skin, the outermost one. It basically acts as a defense system to keep harmful things out and most times it’ll remain intact if you take good care of it. However, you can compromise it in a variety of ways. Cold temperatures will make it dry or even red, over-exfoliating (especially with chemicals) can actually break down that layer of skin and leave you feeling sensitive, and of course, staying out in the sun without sunscreen can cause issues as well. Sometimes that outer layer of skin needs a little helping hand.
On September 14th you’ll be able to treat your skin to the new The Ordinary Soothing & Barrier Support Serum that claims that helps to reduce the irritations and increase hydration while soothing and reducing redness. This bright pink serum acts to strengthen the skin barrier with multiple vitamins, lipids, and phytotechnologies.

It contains the following key ingredients:
Vitamin B12:
Helps support skin barrier by reducing dryness and the look of redness, while also imparting the serum’s characteristic pink hue.
