Science
Mechanism of Action
This N-acylated serinol functions by mimicking natural ceramides, which are crucial lipids in the skin barrier. It has been theorized to act as a GPR119 agonist, potentially stimulating the skin's endogenous ceramide production pathways. The linolenoyl moiety, derived from omega-3 linolenic acid, is recognized for its contributions to epidermal barrier integrity and its inherent anti-inflammatory properties.
