Ceramide
Ceramides are intercellular lipids that bond dead skin cells together to create a barrier. Ceramides are known for their ability to hold water.
Hydrating
These ingredients help hydrate the skin by either drawing in moisture or preventing it from escaping. They’re often used to keep skin feeling soft, smooth, and well-balanced.
Reduces Irritation
These ingredients are often used to help reduce irritation and support the skin barrier. They can be especially helpful for soothing sensitive or reactive skin, but how well they work can vary from person to person.
Helps with Anti-Aging
As we age, factors like reduced oil production, collagen breakdown, UV exposure, and lifestyle choices all affect how our skin looks and feels. While we can’t stop the aging process, ingredients like retinoids, antioxidants, and certain peptides have been shown to help slow visible signs of aging.
Explained
Ceramide AP is a type of Ceramide.
Ceramides are intercellular lipids naturally found in our skin that bonds dead skin cells together to create a barrier. Having a strong skin barrier leads to more firm and hydrated skin.
They are known for their ability to hold water and thus are a great ingredient for dry skin. 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.
