Ever wondered how your skincare products actually get into your skin? This is for you! The most common route that skincare products take is through the intercellular route where they have to pass through the mix of ceramides, cholesterol, and fatty acids (lipid matrix) that hold your skin cells together. Your lipid matrix is pretty good at keeping things out of your skin when it’s intact but there are ways you can alter it to help your skincare absorb better. One of the least invasive ways is by increasing skin hydration. 👉Swipe to find out how skin permeability is affected by whether your skin is dry, damp, or occluded as well as which skincare ingredients should be applied to damp vs dry skin. ✨✨P.S. you can get the editable versions of these diagrams (and all my other graphics) via my Canva Template Library!
