Understanding Ceramide

Ceramide is commonly used as a cosmetic ingredient and has a moisturizing and hydrating effect. In the process of mixing cosmetics, which ingredients do ceramide repel? This article mainly describes the ingredients that cannot be mixed with ceramide and the ingredients that are recommended to be mixed, so that people can better understand the mixing method of ceramide. It also recommends the supplier of ceramide-sost biotech.

 What not to mix with ceramide?

1. Squalane: It will become cloudy or precipitate when combined with high concentrations of ceramide.
2. Vitamin E: Mixing it with products with higher concentrations of ceramide may lead to decreased stability and oxidation.
3. Salicylic acid: Using it with products containing salicylic acid may cause skin irritation or allergic reactions.
4. Parabens: Mixing it with products containing paraben preservatives may cause skin discomfort.

The scientific combination of ceramides with cosmetic ingredients

•Ceramide + hyaluronic acid: hydrating and moisturizing, with stronger shrinking ability

•Ceramide + purslane extract: repair skin and relieve skin redness

•Ceramide + tocopherol: delay aging, strong antioxidant ability

•Ceramide + azelaic acid: solve dry and sensitive skin problems

•Ceramide + wild chrysanthemum: can replenish skin nutrition and repair problematic skin

Recommended dosage of the ceramide formula

Ceramide is a key component of the skin barrier and is usually added to skin care products at a level of 0.05%-5%.

1. Lower effective concentration: 0.05%-0.1% (for example, the Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology points out that 0.1% can improve skin moisture loss).

2. Ideal repair concentration: 1%-2% (suitable for skin with damaged barrier, refer to the International Journal of Cosmetic Science).

3. High concentration limit: some high-end products can reach 5%, but exceeding 5% may cause stickiness, and the absorption rate will no longer increase significantly (EU cosmetic regulations recommend an upper limit of 5%).

Differences in addition amount for different product types:

- Cleansing products: usually do not contain or are less than 0.1% (cleansing products have a short stay time).

- Essence/cream: 1%-3% (preferred when long-term repair is required).

- Body lotion: 0.5%-2% (because body skin is thicker, higher permeability is required).
