The Science of Ceramides: How They Help Strengthen the Skin Barrier

 

The Best Natural Products to Strengthen the Skin Barrier


Moisturization is essentially adding essential hydration to the skin, helping to repair and reinforce the lipid barrier. Those with dry skin types will benefit from using moisturizing products, since having a dry skin type means that the lipid barrier is compromised. When there is less oil production in the skin, the result will be less protection from TEWL and a higher risk for dehydrated skin.

No matter your skin type, we have your back – and complexion! For drier skin, we have some natural goodies to bring your complexion back to healthy harmony. Check out the top natural products featuring oryza/rice ceramides to strengthen the skin barrier and protect those precious ceramides:

Puristry Flower Water Toner

Go beyond your average toner with a super-boosted formula featuring rose water and other floral hydrosols to quench thirsty skin cells and reduce redness. This soothing toner contains hyaluronic acid to replenish dry skin, and organic witch hazel to purify your pores. Its aromatic rose fragrance will deliver you into a divine and eternally romantic skincare heaven!





Coffee Bean Face Cream

When our protective barrier is at stake to be potentially compromised by environmental aggressors, it’s time to step up with a UV damage cream. Our cult favorite, best-selling Coffee Bean Caffeine Eye Cream - now in a face moisturizer version - restores sun damage, balances and brightens skin, and gives your complexion an immediate healthy, vibrant glow!

Watermelon Cucumber Water Locking Serum

In any good-for-the-skin routine, a serum would be key in locking the essential nutrients in from the toner and forming a protective barrier with a serum. This intensely hydrating hydrogel serum locks in watermelon hydrosol to revitalize dehydrated skin cells with skin-plumping polyglumatic acid from fermented natto beans and moisture-retaining hyaluronic acid.

The bonus: The rice ceramides in our serum help soothe redness-prone or compromised skin with its anti-inflammatory properties while also improving its overall appearance with moisturizing benefits and a reduction in fine lines and wrinkles.

Watermelon Cucumber Water Locking Moisturizer

Featuring the same skin hero rice ceramides, our hydrating moisturizer locks in watermelon hydrosol and polyglutamic acid to naturally restore skin elasticity, promote cell regeneration, and reduce signs of aging. This fabulous formula also contains Irish moss, which is a type of red algae, that moisturizes, smooths skin, and helps reduce TEWL.

Matcha Oat Milk Nourishing Mask

Your skin will find its perfect match-a with our nourishing and complexion-changing mask. Made from tender, shade-grown tea leaves, this water-activated powder mask is designed to revive your complexion with help from hyaluronic acid and vitamin C. Boasting an array of antioxidants and polyphenols, it’s specifically designed to support radiant-looking skin.

Whether you’re trying to balance back-and-forth on that skin see-saw for healthy, hydrated skin, the science behind prized ceramides makes them the center of any skincare routine. These powerhouse lipids have anti-inflammatory properties that can soothe sensitive skin and increase elasticity and firmness in aging skin.

A healthy skin barrier has ceramides running the show to seal the moisture in and prevent trans epidermal water loss (TEWL) from occurring. This happens when water passes from the dermis through the epidermis and evaporates from the skin's surface.

TEWL is a contributing factor to dry skin, and chronic dry skin can lead to aging concerns like fine lines and wrinkles.
