Nourish. Seal. Glow. The Barrier Restore Nutrient Oil is a weightless, non-comedogenic face oil for sensitive skin. Sugarcane-fermented squalane and jojoba plant oil, which are similar to skin's own oils, sink in fast to soften skin, lock in hydration and support a healthy skin barrier, without a greasy finish. Fragrance-free, essential oil-free, nut oil-free, vegan and made in Australia.

Key ingredients

  • Sugarcane-fermented squalane: a lightweight, skin-friendly emollient that keeps skin soft and hydrated, part of The Biome Advantage™.
  • Jojoba oil: a wax ester close to skin's natural sebum, so it absorbs easily and suits oily and acne-prone skin.
  • Super Omega Complex: grape, hemp, tea, meadowfoam and oat kernel oils, rich in omega fatty acids to nourish dry skin.
  • Balloon vine and echium: soothing botanicals that help skin feel calm and comfortable.
  • Vitamin E and totarol: antioxidants that help protect skin from everyday environmental stress.

Who it's for

All skin types, including sensitive, dry, mature, oily and acne-prone skin. Every ingredient has a comedogenic rating of 0 to 1, so it won't clog pores. Oily skin needs just a few drops; dry skin can use more.

How to use

  1. Face (morning and evening): warm 3 to 5 drops between your palms and press onto damp skin, after a water-based serum such as the Replenishing Hydra-Soothe Serum. Finish with sunscreen in the morning.
  2. Gua sha and facial massage: a few extra drops give a smooth glide. Pair it with our gua sha and skincare tools.
  3. Body and hair: smooth over damp skin after a shower, or a drop through the ends of dry hair.

Get it with the serum in the Glow Set, or browse all our fragrance-free skincare.

FAQ's

What makes this oil different than other face oils?

Our Barrier Restore Nutrient Oil sets itself apart from other face oils on the market. Unlike many oils that use cheap carrier oils and nut oils, our lead ingredients are Squalane and jojoba seed extract, both of which are biocompatible with the skin. These ingredients are instantly recognized and utilized by the skin due to their similar structure to human sebum. They work together synergistically to rebuild a healthy and strong barrier, support a healthy microbiome, prevent moisture loss, and restore suppleness to the skin.

Will this oil clog my pores?

No, our oil will not clog your pores. It is nut-free and suitable for all skin types. All the ingredients in our oil have a comedogenic rating of 0-1, making it an ideal choice for skin prone to breakouts.

I have acne, can I use this oil?

Absolutely! The use of Squalane and seed oils, rather than nut oils, can actually help reduce acne. These ingredients provide weightless nourishment to the skin without triggering excess sebum production. Additionally, their fatty acids and antioxidants support the skin's barrier function, guarding against irritants and bacteria proliferation that can lead to acne breakouts.

How does this oil help my sensitive skin?

Our oil is specifically formulated to cater to sensitive skin. We have intentionally left out skin irritants such as essential oils, nut oils, fragrance, and preservatives. The Squalane derived from fermented sugar cane and olives helps increase hydration, balance the microbiome, and exhibits anti-inflammatory properties that can assist with acne and eczema. Our proprietary ingredient, DEFENSIL®, soothes irritated, inflamed, and red skin with long-lasting, constant action, while also protecting and strengthening the skin barrier. The unique combination of antioxidants, including totarol, fights free radicals that can cause premature aging and inflammation.

I have aging skin, is this oil suitable for me?

Absolutely. Our oil works to reboot the natural mechanisms of healthy glowing skin, which tend to decline with age. It has been transformational for people with aging skin. For optimal results, we recommend combining it with our Hydra-Soothe Serum. This two-step process will help restore elasticity, plumpness, clarity, and glow to aging skin.

When should I apply this oil in my routine?

Use our Barrier Restore Nutrient Oil as the final step in your skincare routine. Follow it with sunscreen or makeup, if desired.

Can I use this oil on my body?

Certainly! Our oil works synergistically with the skin's natural mechanisms to restore healthy function to all skin types, including the body. That's why we package it in a large 100ml bottle—because why should your face have all the fun? Its bioavailable structure is so unique that it can even benefit your hair and scalp. This oil is truly unlike any product you have ever used.

How long will it last?

When applied to moistened skin, a few drops of our oil will go a long way. When used on the face alone, twice daily, one bottle can last approximately 4 months. If used on both face and body, twice daily, it can last over a month.

    Genuinely nourishing , repairing & value for money !

    I love biobod’s natural approach to restoring barriers, with clean ingredients that genuinely work! I have pale skin and it’s easily irritated even by some natural products, but this oil was hydrating, restoring and left my skin glowing. I’ve never seen such a large bottle of oil for this price, it will last me months and I’m so happy with this product !

    A few drops for everything

    My dry, sensitive, perimenopausal skin is very dry and very cranky this winter. The Barrier Restore Nutrient Oil has been so soothing… Itchy scalp? Biobod Nutrient Oil. Dry, flaky skin? A few drops of the Biobod Nutrient Oil in my moisturiser for extra support over night (this actually helps me sleep better). Hopping in the bath? Pop a few drops in the bath. Face feeling tight? Gently press a little in before applying sunscreen.
    It’s become a staple in my winter skincare routine.

    Absolutely amazing

    I absolutely love Biobod Barrier Restore Nutrient Oil. I use it every night — just a couple of drops on top of my moisturizer to seal in all the hydration. It’s become my little ritual every autumn and winter when my skin needs extra protection and comfort.

    The texture is lightweight but deeply nourishing, and it never feels heavy or greasy. My skin looks calm, balanced, and beautifully radiant by morning. I also love that it’s fragrance-free, which makes it perfect for sensitive skin — and it works amazingly well on the body too.

    Such a simple step, but it makes a big difference in keeping my skin strong and healthy during the colder months. 💛

    Bye bye Dry skin

    The barrier restore nutrive oil is such a versatile product.. especially for a 52yr old menopausal women, it’s great as a Face oil to apply last thing at night prior to moisturiser added bonus it contains natural oils to help moisturise loss and works with your skin and helping to build a healthy barrier. Highly recommend

    No break outs! + I’ve used this for months and still have heaps to go!

    I am very acne prone and have sensitive skin, so initially I was a bit worried if this was going to be okay for the skin on my face, being that you can use it in your hair and on your body as well. The first thing I noticed was that it wasn't fragranced and felt calming in application. It was lush but didn't feel overly greasy, and now I've been using it kind of religiously every night for months. I'm absolutely obsessed. It does not break me out at all. It is comfortable on the skin. It's calmed down the eye flaring that I get, which has just been absolutely amazing, and I can't recommend it enough. Don't give it a miss just because it's in a big bottle. It's going to last you forever, and it is really comfortable down the neck and on the chest and on the arms if you want that too, but I just love it for the face.

    a great addition to my simple routine

    I’m not one for a complicated skincare routine - I want it to be simple and work and this has been a fabulous addition as the last step in my routine. It feels light on the skin and really helps my skin feel bright and fresh rather than dull and dry. Not oily at all. I’m obsessed with how multi purpose it is - when I’m in a rush it’s often the only product i’ll throw in my hair and it makes my curls look shinier and healthier. I read in a review someone puts it in their bath so I can’t wait to try that next!

    Perfect for healing skin barrier

    I’ve been loving this oil, especially when my skin barrier has been feeling a little off and needs some extra TLC.

    It feels really nourishing without leaving my skin feeling super greasy, and I love using it as the last step of my nighttime routine to lock everything in. My skin feels so much softer, calmer and more hydrated the next morning. It’s become such a staple when my skin needs a little reset.

    I've been converted - The oil for people who don't like oils

    The texture of my dreams! This sinks perfectly into my skin and nourishes it without suffocating it. Don't be fooled by how lightweight it is - it packs some serious hydrating and soothing punch!

    This bottle will last you forever!!

    As someone with terribly dry skin - a face oil is a must have part of my skincare routine. unfortunately so many face oils are really sticky and leave an uncomfortable residue on my skin - but this oil NEVER does that!! a few drops of the Barrier Restore oil hydrates my skin deeply,. leaving it smooth and soothed every time. It’s lightweight enough to be a pleasant sensory experience and hydrating and soothing enough to make a real difference to my skin. truly this bottle is such good value because i’ve been using it several times a week for months now and it barely looks like i’ve made a dent in it! Will last me all year. I also love this as a scalp and hair oil because it’s lightweight but effective at dosing the hydration i need. highly recommended!

    Biobod Barrier Restore Nutrient Oil – Calm, Nourish, Strengthen

    Highly recommended! I’ve used so many oils before, but this one is by far the best. It’s lightweight, absorbs quickly, and leaves my dry, sensitive skin feeling calm, soft, and deeply nourished. The fragrance-free formula is packed with omega-rich oils that really help repair and strengthen the skin barrier.
    I use a few drops at night, and by morning, my skin looks more balanced and hydrated. Perfect if you’re dealing with dryness or irritation.

    Amazing!

    Having oily yet sensitive skin, I have always stayed away from face oils as they irritate my skin. This oil is life changing, My ageing neck is in love and my face is glowing. I tried the trial (travel) kit and ran out and now cant live without. Just purchased the full size oil. Now I just need an extra large bottle for my body, my arms and legs so desperately need it. Thank you for the great customer service Jess.

    Beautiful product

    I have used plenty of facial oils over the years but this one by Biobod is by far my favourite. I'm prone to dry, flaky skin but since using the Nutrient Oil my skin has been moisturised and overall more even toned. The huge bottle is also amazing! I've been using morning and night and a small amount goes a long way.

    Leonie H.

    I was a little worried at first, using an oil on my face but this Nutrient Oil is amazing! It is not heavy nor leaves any residue, I use one drop for my whole face and it absorbs beautifully! I use it AM and PM after the Rice and Oat Cleanser and Hydra Serum. It's been over 6 weeks since I've started using it and it's barely made a dent in the bottle!

    The best

    I use this oil morning and night- its the best oil i've used in 15 years. Superor to straight jojoba, rosehip or any of the more expensive oil combination products i've tried. Exceptionally nourishing but also feels light on the skin. 10/10.

    FAQs

    What makes the Barrier Restore Nutrient Oil different?

    It's built on sugarcane-fermented squalane and jojoba seed oil, which are similar to skin's own oils, instead of cheaper carrier or nut oils. That's why it absorbs quickly and feels weightless, even on oily skin.

    Will it clog my pores?

    No. It's non-comedogenic: every ingredient has a comedogenic rating of 0 to 1, and it's nut oil-free.

    Is it suitable for oily or acne-prone skin?

    Yes. Squalane and jojoba are lightweight and suit skin prone to breakouts. Use 2 to 3 drops on oily skin, or use it in the evening only.

    Can I use it if my skin is both dry and acne-prone?

    Yes. It adds the nourishment dry skin needs without heaviness. Layer it over the Hydra-Soothe Serum so skin gets hydration and oil together.

    Is it good for sensitive skin?

    Yes. It's fragrance-free, essential oil-free and nut oil-free, with soothing balloon vine and echium to help skin feel calm and comfortable.

    When do I apply it in my routine?

    Last, after cleansing and any water-based serum, morning and evening. Press 3 to 5 drops onto damp skin, then follow with sunscreen or makeup in the morning.

    Can I use it for gua sha or facial massage?

    Yes. A few extra drops give a smooth glide without dragging the skin, and it absorbs afterwards without a greasy feel.

    Can I use it on my body and hair?

    Yes. The 100ml size is made for it. Smooth it over damp skin after a shower, or use a drop through the ends of dry hair.

    How long does a 100ml bottle last?

    About 4 months used on the face morning and evening, or just over a month if you also use it on your body.

    Can I use it during pregnancy?

    It's formulated without ingredients commonly avoided during pregnancy, such as retinoids and essential oils. As with any new product, check with your healthcare provider.

    What if it doesn't suit my skin?

    Every order is covered by our 30-day Happiness Guarantee. If you're not happy within 30 days, contact hello@biobod.com.au and we'll make it right (T&Cs apply).
