Does your skin burn when you moisturize?
Why your skin barrier is cracking, and how to fix it tonight
If even your mildest cream suddenly stings, that is not random, your skin barrier is overloaded. Three simple steps bring it back to calm tonight.
The problem
Sound familiar?
Sudden burning
Your skin stings, turns red, or burns with products you used to tolerate just fine.
Like parchment paper
After a peel, retinol, or too much sun, your face suddenly feels paper-thin and irritated.
Even your mildest cream
Causes an uncomfortable sting where nothing used to bother you.
The result
An acute skin barrier burnout, too many actives, not enough recovery.
The mistake almost everyone makes
Trying yet another cream, or hoping it clears up on its own, is the biggest mistake right now. Testing more products only weakens what is left of your barrier. Your skin does not need more experiments. It needs rest and targeted help, three steps, no guesswork.
What actually helps your skin right now
- 100% sting-free: Lifts make-up and dirt like a magnet, no rubbing, tugging, or red eyes.
- 0% soap & fragrance: Preserves your skin's natural protective film instead of stripping it during cleansing.
- Lasts ~90 uses: A few drops on a cotton pad are enough for your whole face.
- 93% less discomfort: In studies, participants felt noticeably calmer skin within 7 days.
- Zinc-copper first aid: Acts like an invisible protective patch on burning, red, or rough patches.
- Targeted power: Just a pea-sized amount is enough to treat an irritated area precisely.
- 24-hour hydration: Locks water deep into the skin so it doesn't feel tight again after 10 minutes.
- The "protective cocoon": Keeps moisture from evaporating overnight and blocks out cold or heated air.
- No pilling: A gentle, balm-like texture leaves skin silky and calm by morning.

What our customers say
My skin barrier was completely ruined from over-using actives, everything I applied burned and my face turned red. I was skeptical about trying yet another product. Within a few days my skin calmed down and the tight feeling was gone.

Questions
What order do I put the three products on?
First Sensibio H2O to cleanse, no rubbing. Then Cicalfate+ just on the irritated spots, a pea-sized amount. Finally Hydrance Rich all over your face, a hazelnut-sized amount. The card in the set shows you exactly how.
Do I need to pause the rest of my skincare routine?
Yes, ideally for a few days. Acids, retinol and vitamin C irritate your skin further during this phase. Fewer steps give it the calm it needs right now.
Is the set suitable for very sensitive skin too?
Yes, all three products are made for sensitive skin. If your symptoms last a while or you have a diagnosed skin condition, also talk to a dermatologist.
Can I buy the products separately?
Sure. Bought separately, all three come to €69.70; in the set you pay just €59.90.
Are these genuine, original products?
Yes. You get only original goods sourced directly from authorized EU pharmacy distribution, no detours, no counterfeits.
