MYRISTOYL/PALMITOYL OXOSTEARAMIDE/ARACHAMIDE MEA.

Valuable CAS - / HAIR CONDITIONING, SKIN CONDITIONING

MYRISTOYL/PALMITOYL OXOSTEARAMIDE/ARACHAMIDE MEA is a sophisticated pseudoceramide designed to restore the skin's crucial barrier function. By precisely mimicking the natural lamellar lipid structure, it rebalances the skin's composition, enhances hydration, and fortifies its protective shield against environmental stressors.

Science

This advanced pseudoceramide functions by integrating into the skin's Multi-Lamellar Emulsion (MLE) system, precisely mirroring the natural organization of lipids within healthy human skin. This process actively restores compromised barrier function, rebalancing the skin's natural lipid structure to enhance water retention and create a robust shield against irritants and allergens. It also contributes to skin and hair conditioning.

Key findings

  1. 01 As a key component of Multi-Lamellar Emulsion (MLE) technology, MYRISTOYL/PALMITOYL OXOSTEARAMIDE/ARACHAMIDE MEA effectively restores healthy barrier function and mitigates chronic conditions such as atopic dermatitis by rebalancing the skin's natural lipid structure, ensuring proper ratios and lamellar patterns.
  2. 02 Co-application of an MLE (containing MYRISTOYL/PALMITOYL OXOSTEARAMIDE/ARACHAMIDE MEA as PC-9S) with 1.0% hydrocortisone significantly reduced impairment in epidermal permeability barrier function, maintained skin hydration and surface pH, and minimized damage to stratum corneum integrity, thereby alleviating skin atrophy caused by topical hydrocortisone.
