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.
-
Niacinamide
A form of vitamin B3, niacinamide is key to achieving hydrated, healthy-looking skin. This versatile ingredient boosts skin hydration by preventing moisture loss, calms the skin and fades marks for a more even skin tone.
-
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)
