Ceramide NP Cosmetic Grade Skin Barrier Lipid for Anti-aging and Moisturizing Skincare

Ceramide NP CAS 104404-17-3 Cosmetic Grade Skin Barrier Lipid Active

Product Description

Ceramide NP (CAS 104404-17-3), also known as Ceramide 3, is a skin-identical lipid molecule composed of a phytosphingosine base linked to a non-hydroxy fatty acid (stearic acid). It appears as a white to off-white fine powder and is the most abundant ceramide naturally found in the human stratum corneum, accounting for approximately 22% of total epidermal ceramides. Our Ceramide NP is produced through bio-fermentation and precision purification to achieve ≥98% purity (HPLC), ensuring maximum bio-compatibility and efficacy.

Ceramides are the fundamental building blocks of the skin's lipid barrier, forming lamellar structures between corneocytes that prevent transepidermal water loss (TEWL) and protect against environmental aggressors. Ceramide NP deficiency is a hallmark of aging, dry, and sensitive skin conditions including atopic dermatitis and eczema. Topical replenishment restores barrier integrity, improves hydration, reduces sensitivity, and visibly smooths fine lines — making Ceramide NP an indispensable active for premium anti-aging, moisturizing, and barrier repair formulations.

Specification

Key Features

• Skin-Identical Barrier Lipid — Structurally identical to native human Ceramide NP (Ceramide 3); maximum bio-compatibility and recognized by skin lipid receptors for optimal repair efficacy
• Clinically Proven TEWL Reduction — Replenishes intercellular lipid lamellae to significantly reduce transepidermal water loss; restores barrier function in dry, aging, and compromised skin
• Deep & Lasting Hydration — Forms a lamellar liquid crystal structure that binds water molecules within the stratum corneum; provides sustained moisturization superior to conventional humectants
• Anti-Wrinkle & Smoothing — Ceramide deficiency correlates with visible fine lines; replenishment restores skin smoothness, elasticity, and reduces the appearance of wrinkles
• Sensitive Skin & Atopic Care — Clinically effective in reducing symptoms of atopic dermatitis, eczema, and reactive skin by restoring the defective lipid barrier
• Anti-Pollution & Defense Shield — Strengthens the skin's physical barrier against environmental pollutants, particulate matter, and oxidative stress
• Synergistic with Cholesterol & Fatty Acids — Works optimally in the 3:1:1 physiological molar ratio (Ceramide:Cholesterol:Free Fatty Acids) for maximum barrier repair
