Face Serum for Barrier Repair and Lasting Hydration of Mature Skin

Healthy, radiant skin begins with a strong barrier. The outermost layer of the skin, known as the stratum corneum, is your body’s first line of defense against the outside world. It regulates water retention, shields against irritants, and keeps skin resilient. When this barrier is compromised, moisture escapes more easily, leading to dryness, uneven texture, and increased sensitivity.

As we age, the skin’s natural barrier becomes less efficient. Mature skin often struggles with dryness and patchiness because its ability to hold onto water weakens. This makes barrier protection especially important in skincare routines designed for longevity and resilience. Supporting the barrier is not simply cosmetic, it is foundational to maintaining skin health over time.

How the Skin Barrier Functions

The stratum corneum works like a highly organized wall. The “bricks” are flattened skin cells, while the “mortar” that holds them together is a mix of lipids (oils): fatty acids, cholesterol, and natural moisturizing factors (NMFs). These components work together to seal in hydration while preventing environmental stressors from breaking through.

When this lipid balance is disrupted, the wall loses integrity. The result is skin that looks dull, feels tight, or shows visible signs of irritation. Replenishing and supporting those natural oils is key to restoring a strong and flexible barrier.

How Yes Age Face Serum Supports the Barrier

Our face serum is designed to work in harmony with your skin’s natural defenses. Jojoba oil plays a central role because its structure closely resembles the oils naturally produced by human skin. By mimicking these lipids, jojoba helps fortify the stratum corneum, strengthening the skin’s inherent ability to stay hydrated and resilient.

Our face serum also contains a couple other Power Ingredients, including:

Rosehip Oil

 A natural source of vitamin C that helps brighten the complexion while providing antioxidant protection. Vitamin C also plays a role in maintaining skin tone and supporting the natural repair processes.

Pomegranate Oil

Rich in punicic acid and antioxidants, this oil helps encourage collagen production, supporting firmness and elasticity in aging skin.

Together, these and other ingredients create a serum that not only moisturizes but actively reinforces the skin’s protective systems.

How to Use Yes Age Face Serum

For best results, apply the face serum after cleansing and toning. It is specifically formulated to work synergistically with the Yes Age Cleansing Oil and Hydrating Toner, creating a complete routine that supports both cleansing and hydration. However, it can also be used on its own or layered with other products of your choice.

We recommend smoothing a few drops onto clean skin twice daily, allowing it to absorb before applying makeup or additional treatments. Used daily, the serum helps maintain a strong barrier, reduces moisture loss, and leaves the skin feeling supple and protected.
