PACIFICA BEAUTY VEGAN CERAMIDE BARRIER FACE CREAM 50 ml RRP £21.99

Strip your skin care regime back to basics with this highly-moistursing, ceramide-fuelled moisturiser. So calming and smoothing, you might even be tempted to take a break from your beloved acids, *gasp*. The star of the ingredients list here is Pacifica’s plant-based lipid that works to restore the protective barrier function of your skin. What’s more, when this ceramide is blended with amino acids and shea butter, you’ve got an ultra-hydrating blend on your hands… well, face. Buttery-soft and fragrance-free, this lush texture is a dream to apply as it melts into skin, smoothing as it sinks in, thanks to oat kernel flour. Niacinamide is also added to the mix to help balance oil production, while calendula soothes and calms sensitive skin. But really, this cream is one for all skin care aficionados: it hydrates, soothes, protects, and it's vegan - what’s not to love?!
