Ceramide AP is a specific type of ceramide that plays an important role in maintaining the health and integrity of the skin.
• Barrier Function: Ceramide AP contributes to the lipid barrier of the skin. It helps to strengthen the outmost layer of the skin, known as the stratum corneum, which acts as a barrier to prevent moisture loss and protect the skin from external irritants.
• Hydration: Ceramide AP, along with other ceramides, plays a key role in retaining moisture within the skin. It helps to keep the skin hydrated for overall skin health. It contributes to the maintenance of skin elasticity and suppleness, promoting a healthy and youthful appearance.
• Anti-aging: As part of the ceramide family, ceramide AP is associated with anti-aging benefits.
