The Ordinary Soothing & Barrier Support Serum FAQS
All your questions about the new pink serum answered…
1. What is the difference between Soothing & Barrier Support Serum & NIOD MG Modulating Glucosides? The Ordinary Soothing & Barrier Support Serum is a multi-ingredient formulation designed to provide a multi-functional, holistic approach to targeting visible redness, supporting skin hydration, and helping to repair a damaged skin barrier. NIODs Modulating Glucoside also targets signs of skin sensitivity, especially the appearance of redness, while supporting skin hydration and skin barrier repair. However, this formulation includes active ingredients that work to soothe the skin immediately, meaning MG works on immediate-term as well as long-term feelings and signs of sensitivity.
