  • How to use Dr. Althea 147 Barrier Cream 50ml

    1. Complete Treatment Steps: Ensure your skin has completed the cleansing, toning, and serum steps of your routine. The barrier cream should be applied as the final moisturizing step to lock in all previous treatments.
    2. Dispense the Cream: Squeeze a dime-sized amount (approximately 1-1.5cm) of the cream onto your clean fingertips. For very dry skin or harsh weather conditions, a slightly larger amount may be needed.
    3. Warm and Spread: Gently rub your fingertips together to slightly warm the cream. This preparation helps to soften the texture, making it easier to spread and promoting absorption, a key step in Korean skincare.
    4. Initial Application: Dot the cream evenly across your face—forehead, cheeks, nose, and chin. Start with smaller dots and distribute the product before adding more, if necessary.
    5. Massage and Absorb: Using light, upward, and outward circular motions, gently massage the cream into the skin. Pay special attention to areas prone to dryness or barrier damage, such as the cheeks and around the mouth.
    6. Neck and Décolletage: Extend the application down to your neck and upper chest (décolletage), using the same gentle, upward stroking motions.
    7. Pat to Finish: Lightly pat your entire face and neck with your palms for about 30 seconds. This tapping encourages final absorption and ensures the barrier ingredients are fully settled onto the skin's surface.
    8. Final Step: In a morning routine, follow immediately with a broad-spectrum sunscreen. In an evening routine, this step concludes your skincare regimen.

  • Integrating Dr. Althea 147 Barrier Cream 50ml into Your Skincare Flow

    • Final Layer: Always use the 147 Barrier Cream as the very last step in your moisturizing routine (before sunscreen) to seal in all prior serums and essences.
    • AM & PM Use: This cream is suitable for both morning and evening application. Its non-greasy finish works well under makeup during the day, and its intensive barrier function provides overnight repair.
    • After Actives: It is an essential follow-up after using potentially irritating active ingredients like retinoids or high-concentration AHAs/BHAs, as it helps calm irritation and reinforce the skin barrier.
    • Seasonal Swap: Great for use during winter months or when traveling to dry climates, as its rich yet non-clogging formula provides crucial protection against environmental stressors and moisture loss.
    • Spot Treatment: For areas with extreme dryness, flaking, or redness (e.g., around the nose or mouth), apply an extra, small, localized layer and gently press it into the skin for intensive barrier support.

Certifications & Awards

Developed by the Korean derma-cosmetic brand Dr. Althea, the 147 Barrier Cream is formulated with a patented blend of three types of ceramides (Ceramide NP, AP, EOP) and nourishing oils to mimic the skin's natural lipid structure. It is manufactured under stringent KGMP (Korean Good Manufacturing Practice) standards and has passed rigorous skin irritation tests, making it a trusted choice for sensitive and compromised skin barriers.

Sustainability / Ethical Sourcing Information

Dr. Althea is committed to creating high-efficacy, low-irritant skincare formulas that adhere to ethical standards. The 147 Barrier Cream formula is cruelty-free and does not contain synthetic colorants, parabens, or sulfates. The brand emphasizes the use of plant-derived ingredients and aims for transparent sourcing, while the packaging is designed to be sturdy and practical to minimize product waste and maintain formula stability.

Scent, texture and feel of Dr. Althea 147 Barrier Cream 50ml

  • Scent: The cream is virtually scent-free. It is formulated without added artificial fragrances, containing only a very faint, natural, almost undetectable aroma derived from its raw ingredients, making it an excellent choice for users sensitive to strong smells.
  • Texture: It has a rich, creamy, and densely concentrated balm-like texture when initially dispensed. Despite its richness, it is specifically designed to melt easily upon contact with the skin's warmth.
  • Feel: It provides an immediate cushioning and comforting sensation upon application. It absorbs surprisingly well for a barrier cream, leaving a protective, non-sticky, velvet-smooth finish that locks in moisture without feeling heavy or suffocating on the skin.

    Most common questions about Dr. Althea 147 Barrier Cream 50ml

    What does the number "147" in the product name refer to?
    The '147' in the name signifies the core concept of the formula: the perfect, balanced ratio of three essential lipids—Ceramide, Cholesterol, and Fatty Acid—which are necessary to effectively repair and strengthen the skin barrier. This specific ratio, optimized by Dr. Althea, ensures maximum efficacy in restoring skin health.

    Is this cream too heavy for oily or acne-prone skin?
    While it is an intensive barrier cream, it is formulated to be non-comedogenic and is rich in ingredients that support a healthy barrier, which is essential even for acne-prone skin. It offers deep moisture without the common heavy ingredients that often clog pores. We recommend starting with a small amount and only using it at night if your skin is extremely oily, or focusing application on dry areas.

    Can I use this cream if I have extremely sensitive or eczema-prone skin?
    Yes, this cream is specifically designed with sensitive and compromised skin in mind. Its focus on repairing the skin's natural moisture barrier using a high concentration of ceramides helps to reduce dryness, flakiness, and sensitivity caused by external irritants. Always perform a patch test first if your skin is reacting to other products.

    Why is reinforcing the skin barrier so important?
    The skin barrier is the outermost protective layer that prevents moisture from escaping (dehydration) and stops harmful external factors (pollutants, bacteria, allergens) from entering. A compromised barrier leads to dryness, redness, sensitivity, and accelerated aging. This cream provides the essential components needed to rebuild and fortify that vital protective shield.

    Does this cream contain any ingredients that might trigger fungal acne (Malassezia folliculitis)?
    The Dr. Althea 147 Barrier Cream is generally formulated to be very low-risk for triggering fungal acne. It avoids common fatty acids and esters known to feed Malassezia, making it a safer option for individuals who struggle with this specific skin condition while needing intensive barrier repair.
