CERAMIDE EOP

Ceramide EOP is a ceramide subtype that occurs in the skin barrier; used to support barrier function. The strongest evidence comes from a 2019 human trial: In adults with mild-to-moderate xerosis (senile xerosis), a cream containing ceramides 1, 3, 6-II improved stratum corneum hydration, transepidermal water loss and skin pH more than a hydrophilic cream, measured at 24 hours and after 28 days of twice-daily use. 2019 · 24 people · adults (91.7% female, mean age ~55) with mild-to-moderate senile xerosis · PMID 31585489 · Small single-site study (24 participants), split-site comparison on the shins, 28 days. It shows the tested formula outperformed a basic hydrophilic cream on measured skin parameters. 15 products contain Ceramide EOP; the highest it appears is number 7 of 22.
