Ceramides have become one of the most sought-after ingredients in modern skincare. This article explains the science behind barrier repair and how OEM brands can leverage ceramide technology.
What Are Ceramides?
Ceramides are lipid molecules that make up approximately 50% of the skin outer layer (stratum corneum). They act as the mortar between skin cells, forming a protective barrier that prevents transepidermal water loss (TEWL) and maintains skin hydration.
Key Ceramide Types
| Ceramide Type | INCI Name | Key Benefit |
|---|---|---|
| Ceramide 1 | Ceramide EOS | Barrier integrity |
| Ceramide 2 | Ceramide NS | Moisture retention |
