Phytosphingosine for Skin

Phytosphingosine is a naturally occurring lipid or fat found in the outer layer of your skin as well as in many plants and animals.

It is also considered a precursor to ceramides, that fills in the cracks between skin cells.

• It is suitable for all skin types including sensitive skin.

• It enhances skin barrier function.

• It has anti-microbial and anti-inflammatory properties that can help to treat acne, psoriasis, rosacea, and eczema.

• It helps to moisturize our skin and protects the body from allergens and irritants.

You won’t find Phytosphingosine as the sole ingredient. It’s listed alongside other barrier-reconstructing ingredients, such as hyaluronic acid and ceramides, in moisturizing toners, serums, creams, and makeup.

Cerave products should contain Phytosphingosine.
