Description
Created with an innovative active 12% complex including an active blend of ceramides to help improve moisture retention for a hydrated and supple-looking complexion, this powerhouse cream is ideal for all skin types in need of some R&R. Combined with prebiotic biolin and azelaic acid to help support elastin production and retore skin’s natural balance, it's clinically proven to improve skin firmness, elasticity and transepidermal water loss in 4 weeks.*
This rich, luxurious texture is ideal for mature skin types that might experience loss of firmness, fine lines and uneven skin tone. But you will also love it if you find that your skin is prone to dryness, dullness or dehydration."
What's in the formula?
Our formula is unique because it contains pseudoceramides, which are synthetic ceramides that are more stable, planet-friendly and able to hydrate skin as well as able to better mimic the composition of natural lipids and the skin’s natural structure compared to plant-derived ceramides. The range also contains other skin-boosting, active-level ingredients like azelaic acid, which is a powerful antioxidant with a similar effect to a leave-on exfoliant and helps to refine skin texture. There’s also niacinamide, to help even skin tone, and squalane to prevent moisture loss.

How it works
5% SK-Influx® V MB ceramide blend with AP, NP and EOP: Restores the protective barrier function of the skin and has been shown to significantly decrease TEWL, improving the stratum corneum (top layer of skin) barrier repair.
4% squalane: Helps to prevent moisture loss for a healthy and hydrated appearance
2% azelaic acid: A naturally occurring acid with a similar effect to a mild, leave-on exfoliant, helping to unclog pores and refine the skin's surface. It is also a potent antioxidant and helps to diminish the appearance of blemishes and discolouration. ‘Tells’ cells at the skin’s surface how to behave and encouraging them to produce more collagen and elastin.
1.5% biolin: A cosmetic prebiotic sugar that supports the microbial protective flora of the skin. With biolin, skin microbiota recovers faster and harmful organisms are reduced.
*Independent clinical trial tested on 35 male and female volunteers aged 30-55 for 4 weeks.
How to use
Step 3 of your skincare routine – moisturise
Use daily in the PM in any routine.
How
Massage a pea size amount onto cleansed and treated skin until fully absorbed. For best results, use after after concentrates and/or serums, follow with the Peptide Fix Finishing Oil 2% for a plumping boost.
Tips
Our Ceramide Fix range is ideal for pairing with our hydrating Hyaluronic Fix Extreme4 range. They both help skin to retain moisture – Ceramide Fix by repairing the skin barrier so that it’s able to retain moisture again, and Hyaluronic Fix Extreme4 to add moisture back into skin and to lock it in.
Ceramides also help to improve skin’s tolerance of active ingredients, such as retinol, by protecting the skin barrier – use Ceramide Fix Overnight Cream 12% on evenings when you aren’t using retinol to keep the skin barrier replenished and nourished.

The Science
Ceramides are lipids (oils) found naturally in the skin and are
essential in supporting its protective barrier and retaining moisture. They are the building blocks of skin, comprising over 50% of its composition and play an important role in protecting it against external aggressors like UVA rays and environmental damage, as well as keeping it youthful and supple.
When your ceramide levels are low, the skin barrier is weakened. This happens with age, but also happens if skin has been over-exfoliated or overexposed to sun, for example. Moisture starts to escape (known as transepidermal water loss, or TEWL), which leads to a damaged skin barrier, causing dry, flaky skin, redness, irritation and dehydration.
Why you need it
When your skin barrier is damaged, you need to replenish your ceramide levels to help repair your skin barrier. Applying ceramides directly to skin does exactly that, and they also help to improve skin’s tolerance of active ingredients, such as glycolic and salicylic acids, by protecting the skin barrier. You'll experience all these benefits:
- Firmer skin
- Brighter & more even skin tone
- Reduced appearance of fine lines & wrinkles
- Less redness and irritation
Key ingredients
-
Ceramides
Lipids (oils) found naturally in the skin that are essential in supporting the skin’s protective barrier, helping it retain moisture and protecting it against environmental damage, as well as keeping it youthful and supple.
-
Azelaic acid
A naturally occurring acid that has similar effect to a mild, leave-on exfoliant. Helps to unclog pores and refine the skin's surface as well as encouraging younger cells to produce more collagen and elastin.
-
Squalane
Excellent at soothing and alleviating irritation, this lightweight oil helps to prevent moisture loss for a healthy and hydrated appearance.
How do I know if my barrier is damaged?
If your skin barrier is damaged, you’ll experience transepidermal water loss (TEWL), which means your barrier is unable to retain moisture. As a result, you’ll experience any or all of the following:
- Redness
- Itchiness
- Dehydration or dullness
- Hyperpigmentation (due to the skin being vulnerable to UV rays)
