    Glossary Skin Surface Lipids

    mixture of oils and fats secreted onto skin's surface

    Skin Surface Lipids (SSL) are a mixture of oils and fats produced by the sebaceous glands and secreted onto the skin's surface. They play a crucial role in maintaining the skin's barrier function, hydration, and protection against microbial invasion.
