Ceramides are intercellular lipids naturally found in our skin that bonds dead skin cells together to create a barrier. They are known for their ability to hold water and thus are a great ingredient for dry skin.
Ceramides are an important building block for our skin barrier. A stronger barrier helps the skin look more firm and hydrated. By bolstering the skin ceramides act as a barrier against irritating ingredients. This can help with inflammation as well.
If you would like to eat ceramides, sweet potatoes contain a small amount.

Amlactin Intensive Healing Lotion With 15% Lactic Acid 22 ingredients
My KP texture disappeared a little over two weeks using this 3x a week. Moisturized well (for someone who doesn’t suffer from dryness at least). One star off for the smell. I don’t find it particularly off-putting compared to other users, but I can understand why it’s pungent. To me, it smells like rice, but to my relatives, it smells like rice drenched in soy sauce.
