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.

I was looking for a ceramide-rich alternative to Drunk Elephant's Lala Retro Whipped Cream and found this beauty. It contains five types of ceramides, is scentless and has a nice texture. The moisturizer works well with my other skincare and makeup products, doesn't pill and isn't heavy. It also has a practical pump - easy and hygienic. And it's silicone free, vegan & cruelty free. Do I and my dry skin like it? Very much!
