I have been using this product for a few weeks and it has improved the look of my skin. I feel it has strengthened my barrier and I've seen less redness. I have noticed less flaking and I can use peels without my skin burning now. I received my sample on PinchMe for this honest review.

I received the Ilia Barrier Build Skin Protectant Cream as a free sample from PINCHme. This cream is so thick and luxurious! It soothes my dry skin so well. I even use it on my dry, chapped hands! A little bit goes a long way, which makes it worth the price. There's no overwhelming fragrance. It almost feels like a hydrating ointment.

I received a free sample of Barrier Build Skin Protectant Creamfrom ILIA and @ Pinchme. The redness on my checks has improved. I will continue to use the product and hope the redness vanishes completely. I wish it would work faster.

After using this product for the last 2 weeks I'm in love on how moisturizing it is. It reduces the redness on my face and it keeps my face feeling so soft. I usually get dry patches on my t zone and this product is so good, it has not caused me to have dry patches. "I received this product in exchange for my honest review from @pinchme

I received this product for free to try and I really like this product. The packaging is gorgeous, very sleek and sophisticated. It’s easy to get the product out and it has a really pleasant, very light oat fragrance to it. It absorbs quickly and completely leaving skin looking and feeling softer, smoother and hydrated. I’ve noticed after using for a few weeks that there is a huge reduction of redness and bumpiness on my cheeks and a spot on my forehead that is always red and bumpy is almost completely gone. I’ve also noticed that my skin overall is looking more hydrated and feels plumper and more moisturized when I touch it. Not as much itching and dryness as I typically experience, especially during this time of year. Cant wait to see what long term use of this cream can do and will definitely be purchasing more when this runs out.
