A NOTE
Recently, we've been asked for a richer, more reparative moisturizer, and I kept thinking of how skin might feel after a laser treatment or a ski trip or how skin with age-related dryness always feels.
Meet Bora Barrier Repair Cream, a heavy hitter for chronically dry skin, a compromised barrier, and mature skin that can't retain moisture on its own. It’s loaded with lipids, minerals, ceramides, and antioxidant compounds, so it delivers deep, absorbable moisture that lasts 24 hours, reducing redness and firming skin while returning it to a healthy, bouncy, and youthful state.
We believe in second chances:
I’m recyclable!
Wait! Don’t Throw Me Away—I’m Refillable!
