DESCRIPTION
Ceramide is a functional active ingredient commonly used in personal care formulations for its conditioning and moisture-supporting properties. Typically appearing as a white to off-white powder, it is odorless and integrates well into emulsified systems when properly processed.
In skin care applications, Ceramide is widely used in moisturizers, lotions, serums, gels, and treatment products to support hydration and improve the overall appearance and feel of the skin. Its role in reinforcing the skin barrier makes it a valuable addition to formulations targeting dryness and texture concerns.
In cosmetic products such as foundations and blushes, Ceramide contributes to smoother application and improved product performance. In hair care, it is used in conditioners, serums, masks, and treatments to enhance the overall feel and manageability of hair.
DIRECTIONS & SUGGESTED USAGE
Skin Care Formulations: Use 0.5–5% in moisturizers, lotions, serums, gels, and treatment products to support conditioning and hydration-focused formulations.
Cosmetic Products: Incorporate 0.5–5% in products such as foundations and blushes to improve texture and application performance.
Hair Care Products: Use 0.5–5% in conditioners, serums, masks, and treatments to enhance product consistency and overall feel on hair.
FORMULATION GUIDELINES
Ceramide is typically added to the oil phase of emulsions and heated to 75–80°C to ensure proper incorporation. It is best solubilized in polar oils and may require the use of solubilizers such as polyglyceryl esters, lecithin, or polysorbates for optimal dispersion.
