"If you’re dealing with PIE from acne, very dry skin, or reactive redness, HydraRemedy is such a great fit. πŸ’™ It’s the next step up if HydraBalance isn’t giving you quite enough hydration. We love it as a first serum before layering other actives, and it contains one of our favorite ingredients, Beta Glucan, which helps activate the skin’s healing process for deep repair and soothing hydration."

Supports Barrier Repair and Recovery

This gentle formula is packed with skin-repairing ingredients like sodium hyaluronate, panthenol, and beta-glucan.

Ceramides help retain moisture and protect against environmental stressors, and the formula helps calm the look of post-acne redness (PIE).

Frequently Asked Questions

What does hydraRemedyβ„’ Gel Serum do?

It delivers quick, lightweight hydration while calming redness, flaking, and irritation. It also strengthens the barrier and helps heal post-inflammatory erythema (PIE) faster, keeping skin comfortable and resilient.

When should I apply it in my routine?

Use it after cleansing and toning but before moisturizer or SPF. It can be used morning and night and works well under Acne Med or a retinoid to reduce potential dryness. With exfoliating acids, apply the acid first and HydraRemedy after.

What’s the difference between HydraBalance and HydraRemedy?

Both are acne-safe, hydrating gels that work for all skin types. HydraBalance is lighter and works best for combination or oily skin needing weightless hydration. HydraRemedy is a bit thicker, making it ideal for drier or compromised skin, and it’s especially helpful for calming redness and healing post-inflammatory erythema (PIE).

What skin types is it best for?

HydraRemedy works for all skin types but is especially helpful for dry, compromised, or redness-prone skin. It provides deeper hydration and helps speed recovery from post-inflammatory erythema (PIE).

Do I still need a moisturizer if I’m using HydraRemedy?

Yes. HydraRemedy gives soothing hydration, but it’s not a replacement for moisturizer. Always follow with an acne-safe moisturizer to lock it in.
