HELPS STRENGTHEN + PROTECT SKIN BARRIER: Our concentrate replenishes ceramides and essential lipids responsible for healthy barrier function and necessary for cell signaling, helping to repair and protect the skin barrier.

HELPS REDUCE WATER LOSS: Ceramides fortify the skin barrier, improve structural integrity and help reduce skin permeability – helping to reduce transepidermal water loss.

DRAMATICALLY MOISTURIZES: Our patented, long-chain ceramides thoroughly migrate throughout the multi-layered intercellular lipid network, cushioning skin and surrounding cells in essential lipids. Research shows our patented ceramides may deliver up to 3x the moisturization power of other ceramides.

HELPS WITH INFLAMMATORY SKIN CONDITIONS: Inflammatory conditions, such as atopic dermatitis, dehydration, and acne are linked to low ceramide levels and barrier dysfunction. Increasing ceramide levels in the skin improves barrier function and may reduce risk for certain inflammatory conditions.

HELPS BUFFER RETINOIDS: Ceramides and fatty acids help to buffer and reduce negative skin reactions, such as redness, itchiness and flaking, associated with the use of strong exfoliants, sas AHAs, retinoids and vitamin C derivatives.

PROMOTES OPTIMAL PH BALANCE: Ceramides and moisture are necessary for skin to maintain optimal pH Balance. Maintaining the acidic pH is important to regulate the enzyme activity that leads to desquamation, lipid synthesis, and inflammation.
