Talent: Moisture binder and protector of your skin barrier

Ceramides are so-called skin lipids and are found in the horny layer of your skin. They play an important role in the health of your skin because they form the basic building blocks of your skin barrier. In the unique lavera active ingredient compositions for mature skin, we use plant-based ceramides for more moisture and skin protection.

Ceramide – Building blocks of your skin's protective barrier

They hold together what belongs together: As a kind of "binding substance" between dead skin cells, ceramides in the stratum corneum form an important barrier that protects your skin from drying out. Their most important job is to maintain your skin's ability to retain moisture. This provides essential protection against moisture loss and dryness wrinkles. We take the natural route: The plant-based ceramides used by lavera Natural Beauty are biotechnologically produced with the help of yeasts and structurally identical to the ceramides in human skin.

Protector and care hero for mature skin

Ceramides of plant origin are true skin protection heroes: they can strengthen the cell structure, bind important moisture in your skin, and thus support your skin's natural protective function. Together with other organic plant substances, they can smooth your skin texture and provide more firmness & elasticity. Another positive side effect: with the supported skin barrier, fewer bacteria and viruses can penetrate the skin.

Mature skin needs special protection and strengthening of the skin barrier because the body's own production of ceramides decreases more and more as part of the skin aging process. Supplying valuable fats in skincare creams is important for moisturizing and protecting your skin. In addition, ceramides prevent transepidermal moisture loss, which – among other factors – can lead to the unwanted formation of first wrinkles.
