Science & Benefits

Glucosyl Ceramide is a 'pro-ceramide' typically derived from rice, wheat, or konjac. It consists of a ceramide molecule bonded to a glucose molecule. This structure allows it to be more easily integrated into water-based serums while maintaining its barrier-repairing potency. Once applied, it helps organize the lipid layers of the skin into a more resilient, water-tight structure. It is zero-comedogenic and zero-irritant. It is a strategic 'clean-beauty' alternative to animal-derived lipids, providing identical moisture-lock benefits to ensure the skin remains hydrated and protected from environmental irritants.
