Key Ingredients
- 6-Butterlipid Complex (glucosyl ceramides; glycosphingolipids; beta-sitosterols; and ceramides AP, NP, and EOP): Soothes skin, supports natural ceramide and hyaluronic acid production, strengthens the skin barrier, and boosts and protects skin's moisture levels.
- Zinc and Copper Gluconates: Salt minerals with anti-redness benefits and powerful antioxidant properties.
- Alpha Glucan: Derived from rice and used for its soothing, hydration-boosting benefits.
Research Results
- In a clinical study of 33 people Bora Barrier was proven to:
- Provide 24-hour moisture
- Increase moisture immediately by 98%
- Strengthen the skin barrier in 8 hours
- Improve fine lines, wrinkles, elasticity, and firmness after 4 weeks
Apply one pump morning and night to clean, dry skin. Use daily or in rotation with other Drunk Elephant moisturizers. May be mixed with any Drunk Elephant serum, treatment, or cream.
TIP: Create an ultra-rich mask that can be used overnight: Mix Bora Barrier with F-Balm and wake up to a deeply quenched and strengthened skin barrier.
Skincare Smoothie Tip: Try a Drunk Elephant Are We Clear Smoothie by mixing 1 pump T.L.C Framboos + 1 pump Bora Barrier + 1 pump Bouncy Brightfacial at night for smoother, clearer, healthier-looking skin.

Favorite moisturizer
Perfect moisturizer that is thicker than other DE but not too thick. Absorbs very quckly and layers well with serims and under makeup. My skin stayed hydrated all winter with no redness, patches or flakes. This is meant for very dry skin so if you don't have it, then try one of DE's lighter versions. I'm buying my third soon but it only takes a minimum amount. Highly recommend.

My review was taken down. And I was told to contact customer service who has not responded to me. Original review: I have used this product on and off since December. It consistently damaged my skin barrier. I changed no other parts of my routine, which consists exclusively of DE products. I purchased this hoping it was more moisturizing than Lala for winter pm use. After a few days use, my skin became dry patchy and broken out on my cheeks - which was my issue prior to switching to DE 5 years ago. I allowed my skin to recover using only Beste to cleanse in the evening, followed by Protini. Am rinse with water and follow with Protini. After my skin leveled out I tried the product again as my skin is dry in the winter. The same cycle recurred. I kept trying! I wanted this to be the advertised product, but unfortunately this is not effective and did more damage to my skin than it did benefit. I do not recommend this product and wish I could exchange it for Lala.

Doesn't absorb
Reviewed at

I was so stoked to pair this with the b hydra. I envisioned the smoothest, plumpest skin. My face still feels dry and sticky. This is too thick to absorb well. So now I'm out a hundred something dollars and have no go to skin products. Also can't really use under make up to help it apply evenly.
Not for me
Reaction immediately skin started burning and a rash developed.
