Powered by Bio-Active Ceramides for up to 4X visible fine line & wrinkle reduction*, this is a new age in skincare technology. Let’s take a closer look at the formula with a deep dive on the science behind ceramides in skincare…
What are Ceramides?
A familiar skincare ingredient, Ceramides are known for their ability to form the key building blocks of a healthy skin barrier. Occurring naturally in the skin, they play an important role in helping to retain moisture and protect against environmental factors. Traditionally Ceramides are longer chain molecules which work on the outermost layers of the skin, also known as the epidermis.
What are Bio-Active Ceramides?
Unearthing a revolution in aging skincare technology, we formulated our new moisturizer with Bio-Active Ceramides, an ingredient which takes the traditional Ceramide to the next level.
Next-generation Bio-Active Ceramides go beyond barrier repair to help reset, strengthen, and protect the skin through multiple layers. Engineered with a novel short chain structure, the ingredient facilitates deeper penetration and provides dual action targeting for both the outer and deeper layers of the skin’s surface.
