Ceramides are lipids (fatty molecules) that serve an important function in helping to create and support the skin’s barrier. Ceramides occur naturally in the skin and help it stay hydrated, but they can also be applied topically to boost your moisture levels and repair dry, cracked skin. You’ll usually see them in moisturizers, but you also can find ceramides as a key ingredient in cleansers, serums, and other skin-care products.

Ceramides function as the mortar between the bricks that seals the wall together so it forms a working barrier. That barrier keeps the moisture in and bad things, such as germs and irritants, out.

Identical to lipids found in the skin, ceramides has been concentrated and formulated into a system to provide enhanced skin moisturization and protection. Ceramide Complex restores the protective barrier function of the skin and offers enhanced delivery and exchange of skin lipids.  Ceramide Complex is especially suitable for dry skin, aging skin and sensitive skin.
