Type of Ingredient:
Naturally found in your skin cells, these are a class of fatty acids (also known as lipids) that are typically found in moisturisers.
Main Benefits:
Ceramides work to restore and retain moisture in your skin by building a firm, protective layer that blocks environmental damage and pollution to your skin, and improves any visible signs of aging.
Who should use it?
This is a gentle ingredient that works really well for those of you with dry skin, but is particularly essential for those with a compromised skin barrier. If you experience flakiness, or excessive tightness, ceramides will aid in regenerating the skin barrier, and restoring it back to health!
How often can you use it?
It’s best to use this ingredient twice a day - in the morning and in the evening.

This is an ingredient that works well with pretty much everything, but they are very effective when combined with skin-replenishing ingredients like glycerin.
Don’t use with
