Did you know, without your skin barrier, the water inside your body would escape and evaporate, leaving you completely dehydrated. A well cared for skin barrier helps the skin look great.
The key to preventing wrinkles is to make sure that your skin is hydrated, and well-protected.
The outermost layer, called the stratum corneum, is often described as a brick wall. It consists of tough skin cells called corneocytes that are bound together by mortar-like lipids and ceramides. This is your skin barrier.
Inside the skin cells, or “bricks,” you’ll find keratin and natural moisturizers. The lipid layer contains: cholesterol fatty acids ceramides. This fantastically thin brick wall is literally protecting you. Without it, various harmful environmental toxins and pathogens could penetrate your skin and cause adverse effects.
Your skin barrier is essential for your overall skin health and needs to be protected to help your skin function properly. All Frownies Skincare products were created with this in mind. Oat oil is high in ceramides that hold it all together and is a key organic ingredient in all Frownies skincare.
