Ceramides are a rich fats or lipids naturally found in skin that help to support the natural protective skin barrier. A healthy skin barrier is vital to prevent moisture loss and protect the skin against environmental aggressors. Ceramides work to replenish, moisturize and soothe skin, plus help to improve the look of texture, strength, hydration and skin elasticity, which can also help with the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
Ceramide NP is an exceptionally pure ceramide containing a stereochemical structure identical to those found in the human skin.
“Ceramides help to keep skin supple and hydrated. Unfortunately, ceramides naturally decrease with age. They can be depleted even more rapidly when you use harsh skincare such as stripping cleansers or products made with drying alcohols. Your skin’s ceramide production also slows with prolonged stress, so poor sleep or emotional stress can result in a weaker skin barrier partially because of this slower ceramide production. I recommend using a ceramide-rich moisturizer on a routine basis.”
