Dermatologist 7‑Day Barrier Sprint (save this)
Tight, stingy, easily red skin often means higher TEWL (transepidermal water loss). This 7‑day micro‑program lowers TEWL with a humectant‑then‑ceramide method, plus simple measurement to track progress. One action a day, 5–7 minutes—no overhaul.
Plan: Day 1 baseline - Day 2 cleanse PM only - Day 3 humectant sandwich - Day 4 friction audit - Day 5 occlusive spotting - Day 6 UV conscience - Day 7 lock‑in.
