The 3-Day Barrier Reset
When skin feels fragile—tight, red, reactive—our editors at Glam Beauty Guide pause the actives and lean into repair. Three days of minimalism can change everything.
Day 1: Calm
Cleanse with cream, layer a simple hydrating serum, finish with a ceramide-rich moisturizer. No exfoliants, no retinoids.
Day 2: Feed
Add a few drops of squalane or a light balm at night to lock hydration. Mist throughout the day as needed.
Day 3: Protect
Reintroduce only sunscreen in the morning and keep makeup minimal. Texture often returns to neutral by evening.
It’s quiet skincare, and it works. We’ve featured this reset on Glam Beauty Guide for readers who want sturdy, comfortable skin again.
