Beyond the label
Ceramides, in context.
Ceramides are lipid ingredients used in moisturizers to help hydrate skin. The complete formula and whether you prefer a cream, lotion or another texture matter too.

A few things to know
01Why do ceramide names differ on labels?
An ingredient list may name a specific form, such as Ceramide NP. This selection includes those recorded forms and does not infer them from a general barrier-care claim.
02Are ceramides only found in creams?
No. Other textures may list ceramides too. Compare product type and directions as well as the ingredient record.
03How do I choose a texture?
Look at the complete product and your texture preference. Creams, lotions and gels feel different; follow the manufacturer’s directions for your chosen product.
