[REVIEW] Atopalm Real Barrier Extreme Cream


It is developed for those who have dry and sensitive skin, damaged skin barrier, and in need of serious skincare. This cream offers 72 hours moisture lasting extreme barrier to repair and protect the skin surface.

The cream is thick yet does not suffocate my skin. Despite that, I feel that it is slightly heavy on my skin but I try to think that it is due to the rich ingredients. It absorbs into the skin faster than I thought and leaves no sticky feeling. I tested it as foot and hand cream to check the 72 hours moisture trait, and indeed, the skin on my legs and arms became less patchy and flaky. However, it has this musty smell which I am uncomfortable of.

And TBH, I was skeptical of using this cream because the previous Atopalm Real Barrier Cream gave me itchiness and redness. And the word "extreme" made me worry because what if I got itchiness and redness again and what if they were more extreme this time? I first used and tested this as a foot and hand cream. Then, I saw improvement on the dry patches, so I took a leap of faith to apply it on my face.

Over the first 12 hours of using, instead of any negative reaction, the dry parts of my face are more moisturised and not patchy. I'm glad that the redness have faded and become pink too!

I want to thank 0.8L and Real Barrier for sending me this! I am so thankful!
