iActive™ CERASTEROL
Ceramide is the main component of the stratum corneum of the epidermis layer of human skin. Together with cholesterol and saturated fatty acids, ceramide creates a water-impermeable, protective organ to prevent excessive water loss due to evaporation as well as a barrier against the entry of microorganisms. The stratum corneum is composed of 50% ceramides, 25% cholesterol, and 15% free fatty acids. With aging there is a decline in ceramide and cholesterol in the stratum corneum of humans, which leads to dry skin and irritation. iActive Cerasterol is a complex of Ceramide NP, Cholesterol and Sphingolipids present in human skin. This product helps to repair the skin barrier function, improve skin hydration and reduce TEWL.
