Nothing. None of the experts who reviewed it raised a problem.

What the gurus are saying

Eight-plus-hour hydration stands out as this product's defining strength: reviewers who normally need midday hydrating mists were genuinely surprised their skin remained soft and supple through the afternoon without touch-ups. The light yet substantial texture sinks in fully without any heaviness. For those with sensitive or dry skin, the squalane, ceramides, and 2% urea create both visible plumpness and a subtle glow.

"The barrier balance which just gives such juicy skin."

All 2 takes from Skin Obsessed Mary

⭐️ Bounce Barrier is PERFECT for Dry, Mature Skin

"I use this like a serum and that's how I have it built into my routine as the last serum, and yes I layer multiple serums before I apply my moisturizers, however I've seen other people use this over the moisturizer as the last step. I mean it's entirely up to you how you want to build this in. But what is so cool is that hours, I'm talking hours after I've applied this, my skin still feels hydrated. It's really quite shocking. In fact I did all my skincare this morning around 8:00 a.m. and it is now 4:30, I have put nothing on my face all day, not even a mist, which is shocking because generally my skin would look like the Sahara desert right now. I often reapply some hydrating products throughout the day but look at it. So I have nothing on my face, it was a no makeup day and like I said I put all of the skincare on at about 8, 8:30 this morning and it still feels super soft and lovely to the touch. I'm just kind of amazed. The texture on this is really interesting because it's light and heavy all at the same time. It's like my skin just took a little dip in the water. It's so lightweight yet..."

"I have a brand new bottle of Naturium Barrier Balance because I think it's great to hydrate your skin. It has squalane in it. It has 2% urea in it and it has a ceramide complex in it which are all really great ingredients for any kind of sensitive skin, dry skin issues. It's going to be really helpful. Sometimes I like to use this as a product to top off my moisturizer, but I'm going to use this actually underneath my moisturizer because the actual moisturizer I'm using is pretty thick. So I'm putting this on and it gives a beautiful glow. Urea is a wonderful ingredient for your skin, especially when you want to hydrate because at low percentages, like 2%, it's truly just a hydrator. It's a humectant and it's already found in our skin naturally because it's part of our natural moisturizing factor. So look how pretty. Makes your skin just super super glowy."
