Customer Reviews
Ectoin® is a well-studied stress-protection molecule used in skincare. S.H.I.E.L.D. includes Ectoin® at 1%, the concentration supported by our supplier efficacy data, so Ectoin® can play a meaningful role in the formulation rather than simply appear on the ingredient list.
S.H.I.E.L.D. is formulated as a lightweight, non-greasy gel-cream and includes ingredients such as niacinamide and Zinc PCA, commonly used in routines for blemish-prone skin. Individual responses can vary, so patch testing S.H.I.E.L.D. before first use is recommended.
Yes. S.H.I.E.L.D. is designed for use wherever skin needs hydration, comfort and barrier support.
Yes. S.H.I.E.L.D. does not contain retinoids or exfoliating acids and can be incorporated into routines containing vitamin C, retinoids or exfoliating acids.
AM: Cleanse → treatment/serum → S.H.I.E.L.D. → sunscreen
PM: Cleanse → treatment/serum → S.H.I.E.L.D.
For prescription retinoids or stronger exfoliating treatments, follow the directions provided with the treatment or by your dermatologist.
Yes. S.H.I.E.L.D. provides hydration and barrier support in a lightweight gel-cream texture designed to absorb comfortably without a heavy, greasy finish. S.H.I.E.L.D. can be used by dry, normal, combination and oily skin types.
Eczema-prone skin can be highly individual. S.H.I.E.L.D. contains barrier-supporting lipids, humectants and soothing ingredients, but S.H.I.E.L.D. also contains fragrance and is not intended to treat eczema. If you have active eczema, frequent flare-ups or highly reactive skin, consult your dermatologist before using S.H.I.E.L.D.
Acne-prone skin can still benefit from hydration and barrier support. S.H.I.E.L.D. delivers both in a lightweight gel-cream texture and includes niacinamide and Zinc PCA. Because acne-prone skin varies from person to person, patch testing S.H.I.E.L.D. is recommended when introducing S.H.I.E.L.D. into your routine.
S.H.I.E.L.D. contains a low level of IFRA-compliant fragrance to make the application experience more enjoyable without overpowering the formulation.
Use S.H.I.E.L.D. morning and evening after cleansing and serums, or whenever skin needs additional hydration and barrier support.
Yes. S.H.I.E.L.D. is formulated without animal-derived ingredients and is not tested on animals.
Use S.H.I.E.L.D. within 12 months of opening. Store S.H.I.E.L.D. in a cool, dry place away from direct heat and sunlight, and keep the packaging clean between uses.
Yes. We recommend patch testing S.H.I.E.L.D. before first use, particularly if your skin is sensitive or reactive.
No. S.H.I.E.L.D. is designed as a lightweight gel-cream that spreads easily and absorbs without a heavy, greasy finish, making S.H.I.E.L.D. comfortable for everyday layering.
