Dr.Althea 147 Barrier Cream is a daily moisturizer formulated to support skin barrier function and deliver deep hydration. This Version 2 formula combines hyaluronic acid and ceramides, two components known for their roles in moisture retention and barrier reinforcement. Hyaluronic acid attracts and holds water within the skin, while ceramides help maintain the integrity of the skin’s protective layer, reducing moisture loss over the course of the day.

This cream is developed as part of a Korean vegan skincare routine, meaning it contains no animal-derived ingredients and is suitable for those seeking plant-based options. Its lightweight, non-greasy texture absorbs quickly without leaving a heavy residue, making it appropriate for use under makeup or as part of a morning and evening regimen. The formula is designed to be gentle enough for all skin types, including sensitive and combination skin, and does not rely on harsh additives or artificial fragrances.

Application can be done after cleansing and serums, using a small amount to cover the face and neck. The product comes in a 1.69 fl oz tube, offering a practical size for travel or daily use. The pump dispenser helps maintain hygiene and control dosage. As a barrier-focused cream, it aims to provide ongoing protection from external stressors while keeping the skin comfortably hydrated. No dramatic or immediate transformation is claimed; instead, consistent use is intended to support the skin’s natural balance over time. This version represents an updated formulation, reflecting ongoing adjustments to improve texture and ingredient stability.
