The Healing is Real

Extracted from the extracellular matrix of upcycled bone, these naturally-derived peptides have superior bioavailability compared to artificial/synthetic, and are clinically proven to support tissue regeneration by reducing inflammation, oxidation, and skin damage. 


Independent clinical studies showed statistically significant improvements in barrier function, barrier repair, density, hydration, hyperpigmentation, and global fine lines and wrinkles. Improvements are seen within 4-6 weeks of consistent use.

The Evidence

Less Room for Air

We’ve carefully created a bottle that has 95% more room for performance actives and 100% less air per bottle to make sure your formula won’t be exposed to any air and oxidize. In addition, all of our actives are at functional concentrations, so you know you’re getting the best bang for your buck.

Reviews

Amazing

"Obsessed with the Barrier Repairing Hydra-Serum from Sweet Chemistry! Love that they use pesticide-free ingredients and that is explicitly stated. Using this serum has reduced inflammation in my face, and my skin feels deeply nourished and hydrated. My skin feels plump and looks visibly even in tone. I do believe this serum has helped strengthen my skin barrier. I think it’s cool that this serum has antioxidants and regenerative peptides. In addition, I love the subtle scent in this product, it is very soothing."

Super gentle but actually works

"Honestly I always go for peptides in skincare. I am only 33 but my face is super expressive, so I already have lines around my eyes, on my forehead and that annoying crease between my brows when I squint. This serum actually did a really great job. My fine lines look so much smoother now and the deep ones are way less visible. It layers so very well under moisturizer too. Plus it is gentle and safe, perfect when you want good results without harsh actives. My skin feels hydrated. Really happy with it!"

— gandzulka1 (5/5)

Amazing moisturizing

"I Used Sweet Chemistry Barrier Repairing Hydra Serum for 4 weeks and find my skin become more moisturized and smooth. The texture is amazing and the ingredients are really clean and strong. What I noticed that serum didn’t make skin sticky, absorbed so easily leaving skin hydrated. As I have a problem Skin Barrier serum worked amazingly. No irritation or any allergies . I even think about purchasing other products for full skincare routine to get more better results. Overall very satisfied and will advise."

good for problem areas

"I was honestly really impressed with this product. My nose area is always the driest part of my face, and it has been really hard to find a product that can keep it hydrated. After using this serum consistently every day, I did notice a difference. The skin around my nose felt softer, more hydrated, and smoother. It gave my skin the hydration it needed without the greasy, heavy feeling you sometimes get with serums. My skin looked healthier and fresher. I believe this serum did an excellent job of tackling my problem areas."

Repairing

"The serum is hydrating, absorbs quickly and most importantly doesn't clog my pores. Sometimes I don't need to apply moisturizer after using it because I feel that it's moisturizing enough in the hot climate. I have used it everyday for a few weeks now, and it works well, I can tell that my skin has improved significantly. It felt very comfortable on my skin and had no irritation whatsoever. It really helped relieve dryness of my skin, it made my face look plump and looked less red, while also strengthening my skin barrier.  "

Barrier Repairing Hydra-Serum

"I’ve been using the Barrier Repairing Hydra-Serum from Sweet Chemistry for 3-4 weeks and have been really happy with the overall results. As someone with combination skin, I love that this serum provides deep hydration and absorbs quickly without making my skin feel greasy. I sometimes use this alone or I layer it with other products. It’s super gentle and has not caused my skin to breakout or become irritated. Packed with antioxidants and regenerative peptides, it truly does feel like a restorative product that’s helping to improve my skin! Love, love, love!!"

— beautyreviewer919 (5/5)

Breakouts

"I have heard a lot of praise for Sweet Chemistry, so I was very excited to try out the brand! I have acne prone and combination skin, but I typically only get a couple pimples every couple weeks. I do prefer lightweight products, so I really enjoyed the lightweight gel texture of this serum. Unfortunately I feel like the serum has broken me out more than usual. I felt like while using this product I was getting more pimples and they were often cystic. I didn't see a difference with the hydration of my skin so I would not say this product is worth the price in my experience."

— madibellew (2/5)

Hydrating Serum

"This is a really lovely hydrating face serum. I have combination, leaning dry skin, and this made me look hydrated and plump. It didn't cause any irritation or breakouts. It doesn't seem to have fragrance added or anything like that because it doesn't smell strong, which is a good thing. The packaging seems effective at keeping sunlight out and preventing it from ruining the active ingredients. I also love that it's a pump, so it's hygienic. It absorbs nicely and leaves my skin feeling soft and hydrated. The product does what it claims and is well worth it!"

— becklizzie (5/5)

Unique serum!

"This was my first time trying a product by Sweet Chemistry! It’s a really unique and different serum type than anything I’ve ever used before! It’s soft and silky and lightweight and absorbs really well into my skin. I honestly think it layered really well with other skincare and worked ok under makeup. My skin did take some time adjusting to it though and I had a few small breakouts for the first week or so using the product! I love the science backed ingredients and uniqueness of this serum! My skin definitely looks great now! I received this product for free in exchange for my review."

— bshaymariah (4/5)

Love it!

"This has been such a nice addition to my skincare routine! I have tried a lot of hydrating serums, but this one makes my skin feel hydrated and comfortable without leaving behind that heavy or tacky feeling. It sinks in really nicely and my skin looks smoother and feels softer after using it. I’ve also noticed my complexion looking more balanced and less dry overall. A little goes a long way, and I love how gentle and simple it feels on my skin. I will be recommending this to some family members as well!"
