Ceramide NP is a type of ceramide.
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.

This is not hydrating enough for combo skin. Left my skin feeling like it needed more, but it does absorb well and has no scent.
Unfortunately I realized my skin is sensitive to centella asiatica after consistently getting irritation after using this. I’ve found It gets worse if layering multiple products that contain centella (aka cica or tiger grass). It’s all over Korean skincare too 😓

i have oily combo skin and used this in both dry winter and tropical humid climates. this works well for me and does not sit heavily on my face, absorbs nicely with little fragrance.
for tropical humid weather, i highly recommend this gel for its soothing and cooling properties. however, i did think it wasn't moisturizing enough for dry weather without layering an occlusive over it as my chin Show more

I love it. It doesn’t leave my skin feeling heavy or greasy like some other products. I feel like it works perfectly on my oily skin because it helps reduce how shiny my forehead can get throughout the day.
