Lipids balms and creams are key to the health and strength of the skin’s barrier, this part of the skin protects and limits environmental aggressors from entering and it prevents water from leaving. The skin’s barrier is like a brick wall, the bricks are the corneocytes cells (dead skin cells) and the cement is the lipids. For a strong skin barrier, the lipids need to be constantly replenished to avoid a compromised skin barrier. If your skin is sensitive, dry, flaky or dehydrated these are all signs the skin barrier could be compromised and we need to replenish the lipids. As we age also the skin sees a decline in the natural production of these lipids. A lipid balm or cream is rich in ceramides, cholesterol and fatty acids and will deliver instant comfort, nourishment and limit water loss. Our Ceramide Lipid Repair Balm is packed with a CeramideBio Complex is a unique complex that helps to repair and strengthen the skin's barrier, soothe any irritation and discomfort, seal in moisture and prevent water loss.

Lipid creams and balms help to repair damaged skin, especially when it is the skin's barrier that is compromised. Cold temperatures, dry air, central heating, low humidity these are things that cause the skin's barrier to become compromised. Water will evaporate and lipid production declines causing dryness, flaking, sensitivity, and dehydration. The skin’s barrier is like a brick wall, the bricks are the corneocytes cells (dead skin cells) and the cement is the lipids. For a strong skin barrier, the lipids need to be constantly replenished to avoid a compromised skin barrier. To repair a compromised skin barrier that has been damaged it's important to look for ceramides which make up 50% of the lipids that you found around the dead skin cells that are forming the skin's barrier.
