CERAMIDE NP - Approximately 50% of the lipids in skin’s outer layer are ceramides, and these are essential for maintaining an effective skin barrier function and moisture retention, ensuring skin remains well-hydrated. Ceramides furthermore defend skin against negative outside influences such as environmental stressors and they control which molecules can be absorbed by skin. With age, the quantity and quality of ceramides produced by skin itself decreases, and topical application of ceramides will help rehydrate and educate skin to repair itself to a healthy state. Ceramide IIIB, which can be found in NUORI’s Infinity line, is a unique ingredient that has been developed by using patented bio-fermentation processes. In contrast to various pseudo ceramides that are on the market, this ceramide has the same configuration as the ceramides present in the human skin. Ceramide IIIB is particularly good at rebuilding the lipid barrier, thereby rebalancing dry and dehydrated skin and helping damaged skin to regenerate for long-lasting results. The ingredient furthermore improves the macro structure of skin and thereby the overall smoothness and comfort.
