    GlossarySkin Lipids

    natural fats in the skin's outermost layer

    Skin lipids are natural fats found in the outermost layer of the skin, known as the stratum corneum. They play a crucial role in maintaining the skin's barrier function, keeping it hydrated, and protecting it from environmental damage. These lipids include ceramides, cholesterol, and fatty acids, which work together to prevent water loss and shield the skin from harmful substances.
