How to use it
For dryness:
So the Naturium Barrier Bounce Advanced Skin Hydrator is a bit of a multi-tasker. You can use it as a serum step if you want to improve barrier support and target dryness. For this you can layer it over lighter serums and under your moisturiser.
For extra glow:
If you’re a fan of the dewy look, the best way to use this is as the last step in your normal skincare routine. Just smooth over a small amount to really amp up the glow whilst locking in moisture.
My Review of Naturium Barrier Bounce
So as I suspected, this is a really lovely product and will be perfect if you are looking to defend your skin against moisture loss and ensure your complexion makes it through the winter months without too much suffering!
It has a beautiful rich texture that, if you had normal skin that doesn’t experience too much dryness, could potentially be enough for a one and done serum and moisturiser step.
I have enjoyed using it as my serum step under moisturiser, and it’s also really gorgeous to prime the skin for the makeup if you want to amp up the glow levels.
Although rich, it sinks in beautifully and doesn’t leave the skin looking or feeling greasy. It is a really well balanced product.
Naturium Barrier Bounce vs Glossier FutureDew
As soon as I saw this new Naturium product, it was impossible not to compare it to Glossier FutureDew which I am also a big fan of.
Both products are this oil-serum formula and I have to say, the textures are pretty similar. Both are rich and nourishing, and when used as the last step in your skincare, deliver that lovely glowy, glossy finish to the skin.
I’d say that Glossier FutureDew* leans more to the makeup side, as it contains light reflecting pigments, where as Naturium is more of a skincare product. I think you get a bit more of a long lasting glow from FutureDew because of that.
In terms of price, Naturium Barrier Bounce is much more affordable at £26.50 for 50ml, whereas Glossier FutureDew is £30 for 30ml. This makes Naturium almost half the price if that helps at all.
