Ceramides

Ceramides are lipids that help form the skin's barrier and help skin retain moisture. Ceramides also help the skin protect against environmental aggressors like irritants and pollution. Without the proper ratio of ceramides, the skin's barrier can become compromised, leading to dryness, itching and irritation.

Ceramides are compatible with any components of cosmetics: acids, retinol, niacinamide, vitamin C and other active substances. Therefore, a cream with ceramides can be applied after using peels, on top of products with AHA, BHA, PHA, retinol serums and creams, it will improve the effectiveness of your ceramide-enriched product because there won’t be a layer of dead skin keeping vital ingredients from absorbing as they should.
