Bora Barrier Repair Cream

Ehh, it works but has side effect

I have problem with dry patches, surprisingly this works but it has side effect, idk if someone have same problem, it kept giving me new pimples when I apply on same area as for dry patches, and it’s thick, I was not expecting that. It’s good but I don’t like side effect, just letting you know about that, :/

Great for my dry skin. I’ve tried everything (la mer, Clinique, Estée Lauder, Cetaphil, etc) and this is by far the best moisturizer I’ve used

It is thick, and some time its clumpy so only get a bit out. Other than that, it is moisterizing.

Super thick and hard to spread, NOT hydrating

I genuinely don’t understand how this lotion has so many positive reviews. It’s extremely thick, hard to spread, and just sits on my skin without absorbing properly. The next morning, if I skip washing my face and apply a different moisturizer, the leftover residue from this lotion causes terrible pilling — and the other moisturizer never pills on its own. This product is a huge disappointment, and I would not recommend it to anyone.

dry skin hero

I've used this for almost a month now and it has really helped my extremely dry skin

My safe cream

This is my save face cream!!!! It literally recovered my skin barrier!!!!!! It’s so thick and every time I apply it it’s safe and comfortable a little goes very long way this is my third refill

A very big disappointment!

My skin has been very dry since winter began and I have a variety of other Drunk Elephant products so after reading the write up on this product I decided to go ahead. Unfortunately it made my skin breakout worse than I have experienced in my life!! My face is red, sore and full of acne spots all over my cheeks and chin. So much so that I had to stop using it completely.

Stays on all night!

I replaced Estée Lauder’s Revitalizing Night Cream with this Bora Barrier. Works just as good & is far less expensive. 1 pump & pat lightly all over face & neck after my serum & eye cream. I can feel it slimy when I wash AM

This is a no go for me

This Bora cream is awful. I have used Protini for several years. It keeps my skin soft and perfect. But this cream made my skin SO dry and flaky. It also clogged my pores. I will stick with the Protini.

Extremely helpful with dryness that accompanies using retinoids. I have been on tretinoin for 5 years. I switched from protini to this for the winter months. Game changer.

Rolls on your skin

It’s TERRIBLE!! First, I tried it in the morning but my foundation (same products I’d been using) rolled every time I’d apply. I switched to using this at night but if I slightly rub my face it still rolls. It’s basically unusable unless you don’t mind having chunks of product on your face.

If you have extremely dry, irritated skin…..

Telling people I have severely dry skin is an understatement. I have tried so many creams and none seem to be enough for me. Especially in the dry, Alberta winter and as my skin starts to age. I am so happy I splurged for this product. I use it morning and night and it instantly feels amazing. My skin is still on the mend after about 6 weeks of use but I do feel this product has put me on the right path to healthy, hydrated skin. I hope they eventually offer this in the larger format for a better value as this is a pricey product.
