Description
Cocokind's Ceramide Barrier Serum is specifically formulated with 5 types of ceramides and lipids that mimic and support skin’s natural barrier, helping skin recognize them more easily, this optimized serum nourishes and replenishes for healthy-looking skin. Ceramides, which are integral to skin barrier structure, are paired with complementary lipids, allowing them to be easily recognized and absorbed, along with ceramide precursors to promote skin’s natural ceramide production. Together they help reduce moisture loss and defend against external aggressors. Fatty acids add extra skin barrier support, while lactic acid gently renews skin helping ingredients sink in more easily. This serum helps reset and defend skin daily, making it ideal for all skin types and concerns.

Q: Can you only use this on your face?
submitted by Deirdre - 4 months ago
A: Hi! Our ceramide barrier serum was specifically formulated to provide hydration and skin barrier support on the face. However, feel free to use it on your body as well, as it also reduces trans-epidermal water loss and signs of irritation, leaving skin noticeably hydrated, supple, and more comfortable. You can also check out our ceramide body oil stick, which is specifically made for the body. This lightweight, mess-free body oil stick uses ceramides, squalene, and shea to replenish moisture and support your body’s skin barrier. It is also always a good idea to do a patch test before applying the product all over just to be safe.

Stinging and Burning
3 out of 5 stars
Han - 7 days ago, Verified purchaser
I have extremely sensitive & oily, acne prone skin, but this has so many good reviews that I had to try it. This left my skin burning and stinging every time I would apply it. At first I thought I was just had a damaged skin barrier so kept using it, but despite my face being really hydrated & having a healthy skin barrier, this continued to sting and burn. Unfortunately I had to return it. Good to note that it didn’t break me out at least!

It's my HG! I use it right before putting on tretinoin and my skin is never irritated the day after. My skin barrier is healthy after starting to use the ceramide serum
A step I will never skip again!

Have gone through a few bottles so far. After I finished first I thought it seemed to be helping my insanely dry skin skin, but decided to stop using it to save a few bucks. THAT is when I realized how much it had been helping! Bought another bottle and haven't looked back. A definite powerhouse.

I love using this serum at night with my other skincare. It feels very hydrating and leaves my skin glowy. I have very dry skin and rosacea and this definitely helps to calm and hydrate my skin. I'm very picky about the skincare I do use because many products cause my skin to get irritated and sting. This has never done that to me. The product also lasts a long time for the size and price.

MUST BUY!

I have used this since around May 2023, around two years, and it never fails me. I have it on auto-subscribe every month ( the smaller size). It is the best hydration serum on the market for the price point. Like most people, my skin has its ups and downs, from super sensitive to oily and everything in between. It has helped me through it all. I have tried others from the ordinary, farmacy, Neutrogena etc. I was hooked on it by the first-month mark. I don't buy or look at anything else. This is the best option for anyone looking to strengthen their skin barrier and soothe irritation. It does not sting even when I have a damaged skin barrier. Packaging Easily recyclable, no leaks, no cracks during travel. Texture & Application The serum has a lightweight, slightly milky consistency that absorbs quickly without feeling greasy or heavy. It layers well under moisturizer and sunscreen, making it easy to incorporate into morning and nighttime routines. It also pairs well in light and heavy makeup days. Depending on how much you use, it should last over a month, give or take. Who It's Best For This serum is ideal for dry, sensitive, or compromised skin, but even those with combination or oily skin can benefit from its lightweight hydration and soothing properties. If you struggle with a damaged barrier, this could be a great addition to your routine. Pros: Hydrating, soothing, lightweight, fragrance-free, great for sensitive skin. Cons: Might not be rich enough for very dry skin on its own. I'd HIGHLY HIGHLY recommend this serum for anyone looking to restore their skin barrier and maintain long-term skin health. It's a solid, gentle option that delivers results without unnecessary fillers or irritation.
Great for dryness

This definitely makes my skin feel good! Not sure if it's a miracle product, since my skin wasnt that bad starting off anyway. I just had a bit of dry cheeks, especially during the winter months, so this did make a difference for that! But other than that it's hard to really tell how much my skin has changed. I will say, that even just 2 drops feels like enough and a little goes a long way, which is nice since this is on the pricier side per fl oz than their other products. Definitely will be saving up to get another one once mine runs out! The texture might seem weird at first, since most "serums" are just straight liquid, and this is "thicker" and a bit more viscous? But dont worry, once you move it around it sinks right in and is very moveable :)

My face used to react to everything and anything. I could never use a "chemical" sunscreen without it burning. I started using this barrier serum and I no longer get that burning sensation from a chemical sunscreen! I never knew that my skin barrier was so damaged until this fixed it! I now use this every morning as a part of my skin care routine!
A must add!!

This will forever be in my morning line up! I love how light it is, how easily it absorbs into my skin, and how it doesn't cause for my makeup (if I apply it afterwards) to be shiny as a result of my typical routine.
