Ceramide NS
A skin-identical lipid that strengthens the skin barrier and locks in moisture.
Ceramide NS is a naturally occurring lipid found in the stratum corneum that plays a critical role in maintaining barrier function and hydration. It helps restore the skin’s lipid matrix, reducing transepidermal water loss and improving resilience against environmental stressors. Frequently used in barrier-supportive moisturizers and sensitive-skin formulations.
