There are natural and synthetic ceramides. Natural ceramides/Ceramides are found in the outer layers of your skin, as well as in animals like cows and plants like soy. Synthetic ceramides (also known as Cetyl-PG Hydroxyethyl Palmitamide or Pseudo-ceramides) are man-made. Because they’re free from contaminants and more stable than natural ceramides, Cetyl-PG Hydroxyethyl Palmitamide/Pseudo-ceramides are more commonly used in skin care products.The price of Cetyl-PG Hydroxyethyl Palmitamide is also much lower than that of natural “Ceramide”. It can enhance the cohesion of epidermal cells, promote the hydration of epidermis, improve the skin barrier, and improve the skin’s water retention capacity.
Both Cetyl-PG Hydroxyethyl Palmitamide and Ceramide substances are widely used in skin care products. But they have some differences:
Composition: Ceramide is a naturally occurring substance in the skin, while Cetyl-PG Hydroxyethyl Palmitamide are artificially synthesized substances.
Efficacy: Ceramide can promote the anti-aging and repair of skin, and keep the skin moist and elastic. Cetyl-PG Hydroxyethyl Palmitamide has the same effect, but not as significant as Ceramide.
Effect: Cetyl-PG Hydroxyethyl Palmitamide effects are generally not as significant as Ceramide, but they also have certain effects.
In general, Cetyl-PG hydroxyethyl palmitamide products are a good substitute, but if you want better results, you’d better use skin care products containing Ceramide.
Key Technology Parameters:
Appearance | White powder |
Assay | 95% |
Melting Point | 70-76℃ |
Pb | ≤10mg/kg |
As | ≤2mg/kg |
Functions:
1. Maintain skin moisture: By forming layered molecular complexes through hydrogen bonding, promote hydration of the epidermis, thereby improving the skin’s ability to maintain moisture.
2. Skin care: Enhance the cohesion of epidermal cells, repair the skin barrier function, so as to alleviate the scaling symptoms of the Stratum corneum, help the epidermis recover, and improve the skin appearance. It can also prevent or reduce skin peeling caused by ultraviolet radiation, thereby helping the skin resist aging.
