If you’re anything like me, you want to try ALL the skincare things! Though it’s very easy to get overwhelmed and to not be sure which products which help you achieve the results you are seeking.
In a recent poll on my IG stories, learning more about Ceramides took the lead in what you wanted to know more about. Below is the cliffs notes version of my research:
Ceramide’s are lipids, which are fatty acids that are produced in the sebaceous glands. Ceramides help to moisturize and strengthen the protective skin moisture barrier, and protect the skin from external aggressors such as weather and pollution.
In other words ceramides are more like an emollient (softening) and hydrator, which repair the skin barrier.
While CeraVe is a popular drugstore brand rich in ceramides, sharing my personal ceramide product recommendations below:
