The Research

A perfectly balanced array of specialised bioactive lipids, including ceramides, cholesterol and triglycerides, form a vital component of the skin’s barrier function as part of the Stratum Corneum, the skin’s outermost layer.

As a dynamic, interactive interface between the skin and the outside world, these ‘living lipids’ are also crucial in modulating immune responses and empowering cell-to-cell communication.

Topical treatment with a precise combination and ratio of lipids, vitamins and proteins can alleviate skin sensitivity and dryness by replenishing and stabilising the barrier function of the Stratum Corneum, which diminishes throughout life due to natural ageing and environmental damage.
