What to Avoid Mixing With

Info

General guidance

Ceramides are excellent after exfoliation. They repair and strengthen the skin barrier that acids temporarily weaken.

Info

Niacinamide

Both strengthen the skin barrier through different mechanisms. Together they're the ultimate barrier repair combo.

Info

Retinoids

Ceramides help counteract retinoid dryness. Apply ceramide moisturizer after retinoid for better tolerance.

Info

AHAs (Glycolic, Lactic, etc.)

Glycolic acid + ceramides is a smart pairing. The acid exfoliates while ceramides immediately repair the barrier.

Info

Centella Asiatica (Cica)

Centella and ceramides together are the ultimate barrier repair duo. Both soothe and strengthen damaged or sensitized skin.

Info

Growth Factors

Ceramides create a protective barrier that helps growth factors stay active on the skin longer.

Info

Hyaluronic Acid

HA draws water in, ceramides lock it in. Apply HA on damp skin first, then ceramide moisturizer to seal.

Info

Peptides

Peptides and ceramides are both gentle and reparative. A perfect combo for anti-aging without irritation.
