What it is
Ceramide EOP is one of the long-chain structural lipids of the skin barrier, important for binding the outer skin layers together. Added to formulas, it tops up the skin's own ceramides to support a stronger, more resilient barrier and reduce moisture loss.
Safety & warnings
Skin-identical ceramides are gentle and suit sensitive, dry, or barrier-impaired skin.
Origin & sourcing
Typically produced synthetically as a skin-identical ceramide.
