UNLOCK RADIANT SKIN WITH CERAMIDES: BEAUTY FROM WITHIN
Discover the Power of Ceramides for Youthful, Hydrated Skin with Kiki
Kiki's ceramide-enriched products offer a revolutionary approach to maintaining a youthful and hydrated appearance. Achieve beauty from within with ceramides, essential lipids that keep your skin youthful and hydrated. Young skin naturally contains ceramides, making it moist, plump, and wrinkle-free. However, as we age, ceramide levels decrease, leading to dry, itchy skin and wrinkles. Oral phytoceramide supplements can help replenish these vital lipids, restoring your skin's moisture balance for a radiant, youthful appearance.
Benefits of Oral Ceramides
Oral ceramides are gaining popularity as users experience softer, moister skin after just a few capsules a day. Ceramosides™, a potent source of phytoceramides and digalactosyl diglycerides (DGDG) from wheat, are particularly effective. Clinical studies show that oral phytoceramides hydrate, smooth, and rejuvenate skin, nourishing the dermal layers to restore a healthy glow.
History of Ceramides in Skincare
Since the early 1990s, major cosmetic companies have added ceramides to skin creams to combat fine lines, wrinkles, and dry skin, though the effects were often minimal. To enhance ceramide delivery, researchers developed oral capsules that deliver ceramides through the bloodstream to the skin’s deepest layers, providing dramatic hydration and rejuvenation.
Inside-Out Skin Care
Ceramides also help to reduce melanin production, which can help to diminish age spots and skin discolorations. Wheat-derived phytoceramides taken orally can even out skin tone and combat uneven pigmentation by replenishing ceramides from the inside out. (4-5)
Why Ceramides Matter
Ceramides are found in all four layers of the epidermis, forming a natural barrier that retains moisture, helps to prevent infection, and stops wrinkles. These "bricks and cement" of the skin decrease with age and colder weather, leading to water loss, dry skin, and premature aging. Restore your skin’s natural barrier and youthful appearance with ceramides.
CERAMOSIDES™ works to repair the skin’s water barrier and replenish cracks by delivering new ceramides to the surface of the body through the bloodstream. The skin will become more hydrated and plump.
Clinical Studies and Efficacy of CERAMOSIDES™
Two separate clinical studies provided conclusive evidence regarding the efficacy of CERAMOSIDES™. A state of the art randomized double blind placebo controlled clinical trial showed outstanding significant results in only 30mg of ceramosides powder. Visible improvement of the crow’s-feet wrinkles was seen from 8 weeks and was maintained at 12 weeks (7)
Strong Skin Hydration
One clinical trial showed that CERAMOSIDES™ Powder improved skin moisturization by more than 16% vs placebo in only 15 days (23% vs. baseline), and more than 21% vs. placebo after 2 months (36% vs. baseline). Also, significant results were a observed when measuring the trans-epidermal water loss. Ceramodes efficacy was also seen by the subjects: 75% of them felt less pulling sensations and 80% noticed a reduction of scales while 75% of the subjects who took a placebo didn’t feel any improvement.
Exclusive Anti-aging Action
Proven to enhance skin moisturisation by over 16% vs. placebo in just 15 days (23% vs.baseline) and by more than 21% vs. placebo after 2 months (36% vs.baseline). Significant reduction in trans-epidermal water loss observed. Clinical trials demonstrate significant wrinkle reduction after 2 weeks and improved skin elasticity by over 18% vs. placebo in just 15 days (15% vs.baseline), and by more than 26% vs. placebo after 2 months (36% vs. baseline). 80% of treated participants reported improved skin appearance, compared to 65% of placebo participants who saw no improvement.
Skin Condition Prevention and Treatment
Ceramides and other skin lipids form the first line of defense against infection. Research shows that the risk of various skin conditions increases with age due to the breakdown of this barrier.(8)
Summary
Ceramides provide an effective solution for modern consumers seeking anti-aging and hydration benefits with proven efficacy and quick results. Moisturisation is a critical need in anti-aging skincare, and ceramides are renowned for their hydrating properties. CERAMOSIDES™ is gluten-free, natural, vegan, and contains no GMOs, additives, or preservatives.
Ceramides are the key ingredient in KIKI Beauty Capsules
