Function
A comprehensive skin physiology protocol designed to cleanse, exfoliate, restore, and maintain healthy skin function. The Complete Protocol combines every core LBH formulation into a unified system intended to support barrier integrity, healthy desquamation, hydration balance, and long-term skin resilience.
Clinical Rationale
The Complete Protocol was developed to provide a comprehensive approach to skin maintenance while preserving the principles of restraint and intentionality that define LBH.
Rather than relying on excessive layering or redundant products, each formulation serves a distinct physiological purpose within the system.
The AHA Cleanser supports cleansing and skin preparation.
The Exfoliating Toner promotes controlled exfoliation and healthy desquamation.
Prickly Pear Seed Oil replenishes essential lipids and supports barrier function.
The Exfoliating Mask provides periodic intensive exfoliation to support clarity and texture.
The Lip Balm supports barrier maintenance and hydration of the lips, an area frequently overlooked in comprehensive skincare regimens.
Together, these formulations address the essential processes involved in maintaining healthy, resilient skin while supporting long-term skin function.
