Molecular Genesis Barrier Repair Moisturizer with Malassezin + Growth Factors

Moisturizer · 30 ingredients

A barrier-repair moisturizer formulated to address loss of firmness, uneven texture, and compromised skin barrier function. It centers on Malassezin, a patented ingredient targeting dark spots, alongside growth factors and copper peptides to smooth fine lines, visibly firm skin, and reduce redness. Hyaluronic acid and squalane deliver immediate hydration while a lipid concentrate works to restore essential lipids and prevent moisture loss. Best suited for those experiencing signs of aging or barrier damage, it is vegan and free from parabens, sulfates, phthalates, and mineral oils.
