CERAMIDES

Metric:
INCI: Glycerin & Glycosphingolipids & Leuconostoc/Radish Root Ferment Filtrate

Application
Ceramides are found in the epidermis and are responsible for its protective properties; in simple terms, they protect the skin and hair from adverse environmental effects. They help maintain proper skin hydration, increase its firmness, and also boost collagen synthesis.
They are key to maintaining moisture and the protective barrier of the skin surface to keep it in the best possible condition.
Ceramides are used for both skin and hair care.

The recommended concentration in products is from 1% to 10%. Lower concentrations are used in hair products (conditioners, shampoos, scalp treatments), while higher concentrations are used in skin products like creams or lotions.
The product dissolves very well in water.
Ceramides can be added to a daily cosmetic product or used in DIY cosmetic production. They are added during the water phase (after oils).
For cosmetics prepared using heat—such as soaps—they are added after cooling (at a temperature below 40-45°C).

Description of effects

By nourishing the skin with ready-made ceramides, we significantly strengthen the skin—building a protective barrier, preventing dehydration, and increasing firmness and skin density. We also boost collagen production.
Here are the benefits of incorporating ceramides into your daily care:

- hydrate dry skin and prevent water loss,

- renew, repair, and firm aging skin,

- smooth out lines and wrinkles,

- improve the integrity of the epidermis—protecting against photodamage, surfactants, stress, and low humidity.

In hair care formulas, ceramides have been shown to protect the hair while improving its shine and mechanical properties, such as texture and ease of combing.

Storage Instructions
