START Here
When skin feels dry, tight, sensitive, or uncomfortable, the instinct can be to reach for more products.
More ingredients. More actives. More steps. But really, your skin needs less.
At AMPERNA®, our barrier-first philosophy is centred around supporting your skin with gentle, considered formulations designed for everyday use. Our range is powered by postbiotic technology and complemented by carefully selected ingredients that help support hydration, comfort and the skin's natural barrier.
Rather than asking, "What can I use to fix my skin?", we are encouraging you to ask:
"What can I use every day to support my skin?"
That is why we have created our START → BUILD → READY FOR MORE product bundle approach. So you can select which bundle is appropriate for you to use throughout your skin health journey.
START Bundles
Skin barrier foundation.
START is designed for those who want to establish a simple skincare foundation. It is particularly suited to people whose skin is feeling uncomfortable, dry, tight, sensitive or irritated-looking.
However you do not need to have a specific skin concern to benefit from a simple barrier-focused routine using our START bundle products.
The goal is to create skin that feels: Calm. Comfortable. Soft. Hydrated. Nourished. Balanced. Refreshed. Supported.
Our START bundles give you three ways to begin:

SOOTHING DUO: [RESCUE] + [HYDRATE]
Our bestselling duo brings together two complementary formulas designed for lightweight hydration, calm, comfort, and everyday skin support.
The beauty of the Soothing Duo is its simplicity. Two products. Two steps. Morning and night.

[RESCUE] Pro+ DS Soothing Serum - A lightweight, comforting serum focused on hydration, conditioning, and everyday barrier support. It includes:
- Lactococcus Ferment Lysate - Our hero postbiotic ingredient helps support the skin's natural barrier and contributes to a balanced, healthy-looking skin environment.

[HYDRATE] Lightweight Soothing+ Emulsion - Your lightweight everyday moisturiser, designed to complement our [RESCUE] serum. It includes:

BARRIER BOOST DUO: [SUPACALM] + [RESCUE]
Sometimes you want something you can reach for throughout the day. That is where the Barrier Boost Duo comes in.
Combining [SUPACALM] and [RESCUE], this two-step routine brings together cooling refreshing misting, hydration and postbiotic-powered skin support.
Use it as part of your daily routine to help your skin feel refreshed, hydrated, calm, comfortable and balanced-looking throughout the day.
[SUPACALM] Pro+ SOS Daily Facial Spray - A refreshing facial mist formulated with both prebiotic and postbiotic ingredients, including:
- Lactobacillus - This postbiotic technology helps support the skin microbiome and contributes to a healthy skin environment.
- Alpha-Glucan Oligosaccharide - A prebiotic ingredient that helps support the skin's existing microbial environment.
- Sodium Lactate - A component associated with the skin's natural moisturising factors that helps support hydration and a comfortable skin feel.
Together, the prebiotic and postbiotic ingredients complement AMPERNA®'s focus on skin microbiome and barrier support.
[RESCUE] Pro+ DS Soothing Serum - Follow with your postbiotic-powered serum for the ultimate skin barrier boost.
The BARRIER BOOST DUO is perfect to have in your gym or work bag to use throughout the day, whenever your skin is needing a hydration drenching.
*TIP: if your skin is feeling and looking very red, irritated or dry keep [SUPACALM] in the fridge for an additional cooling spritz.
Why Postbiotics?
Your skin has a microbiome, a community of microorganisms that exists on the skin's surface and forms part of the skin's natural ecosystem.
We incorporate postbiotic technology into our formulations as part of our approach to supporting the skin barrier and maintaining a healthy-looking skin environment.
Rather than making skincare about doing more to your skin, we believe in supporting what your skin already does naturally.
That is why postbiotics are at the heart of AMPERNA®.
Why Consistency Matters Most
If your skin is feeling stressed or looking irritated, simplifying your routine can be the best way to replenish and support your barrier back to its best.
But the AMPERNA® philosophy goes one step further: Do not stop supporting your skin once it feels better. Make skin barrier support your everyday routine.
Using your AMPERNA® products consistently gives your skin a familiar, considered routine rather than constantly introducing something new.
Over time, your daily AMPERNA® routine can help your skin feel more hydrated, comfortable, supported, softer, smoother-feeling, and more balanced-looking.
How AMPERNA® Bundles Work?
START → BUILD → READY FOR MORE
START - Create a simple foundation.
BUILD - Introduce targeted ingredients and actives gradually.
READY FOR MORE - Expand your routine as your skin feels comfortable and you are ready for the next step.
Your AMPERNA® skincare routine can evolve. While your barrier support stays.
This is the AMPERNA® difference. We are here to help you support your skin every day. We are barrier-focused skincare, powered by postbiotics.
So, if you are wondering where to START, start simple. Choose the routine that feels right for your skin. Use it consistently. And give your skin the everyday support it deserves.
