Got Dry Skin? This 'Drinkable Moisturiser' Turns Desert Into Dewy Oasis

Got Dry Skin? This 'Drinkable Moisturiser' Turns Desert Into Dewy Oasis

Okay, quick quiz: What’s your skin’s favourite “drink” to hydrate? If you said water or moisturiser, you're half right. 

See, we got a pro tip (especially for all the dry skin girlies)... 

You hydrate, you moisturise, but if you’re not using ceramides, aka 'drinkable moisturiser', you’re missing out big time.

Forget the usual spiel on serums and creams…Ceramides is the super-ingredient your skin routine has been missing…

Because they do MORE than just moisturise—they REINFORCE your skin's own defenses.

Ceramides are waxy lipid molecules naturally found in high concentrations within cell membranes in the skin. 

They hold cells together, forming a protective layer that plumps the skin and retains moisture. 

Think of ceramides as the glue that keeps your skin barrier healthy and intact.

Here’s Why Ceramides Are a Big Deal:

  • Ultimate Moisture Lock: Studies show ceramides help skin retain moisture, reducing dryness and irritation for that oh-so-silky feel.
  • Youthful, Bouncy Skin: Clinical research suggests ceramides can boost skin elasticity and reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
  • Protect and Serve: They strengthen your skin’s barrier against environmental threats like pollutants and allergens.

Topical vs. Oral Ceramides: Let’s Talk Science

So you’ve got ceramides on your radar now, but how do you get them working for your skin?

You can go two routes: slap them on or gulp them down.

Both have their perks, backed by some serious science.

1. Topical Ceramides: Slather on the Good Stuff

When you apply ceramides directly to your skin, it’s like giving your face a direct dose of hydration and a stronger barrier. 

According to a literature review published in 2019, which looked at dozens of studies, creams and lotions packed with ceramides can seriously up your skin’s moisture game.

They’re especially great for anyone dealing with atopic dermatitis, helping to soothe and repair dry, barrier-disrupted skin. 

So, if localized dryness and irritation are your nemeses, topical ceramides might just be your superhero.

2. Oral Ceramides: Drink Your Way to Dewiness

On the flip side, taking ceramides in pill or drink form means you’re hydrating every inch of your skin from the inside out. 

A study from Tokai University showed some pretty impressive stats: participants who took ceramide capsules increased their skin’s moisture levels up to 394% over three weeks, compared to those who just took a placebo. 

Even better, their skin kept more of that moisture, with significantly less water loss

So if you’re looking for an all-over hydration hero, oral ceramides could be your go-to.

Which One Should You Choose?

It really comes down to your personal skin goals and challenges. Want targeted treatment for troubled spots? Go topical. Looking to boost overall skin hydration? Try oral ceramides.

Or, mix and match to maximise all that ceramide goodness. Either way, you’re giving your skin a big high-five in hydration.
