DS-Ceramide Y3S™ enhances skin health and barrier function no matter the climate challenges, while DS-HydroCeramide50™ and DS-HydroCeramide50S™ deliver easy-to-use, high concentrations of ceramide NP, the most abundant ceramide in the skin.
DS-Ceramide Y3S™ for Climate Adaptive Barrier Protection
Recent studies underscore how varying climatic conditions, from hot and humid to dry and cold, can disrupt the skin’s natural balance, increase sensitivity, and promote premature aging and pigmentation concerns. As environmental stressors continue to intensify, there is a growing demand for targeted skin care solutions that protect and strengthen the skin barrier in these evolving conditions.
According to Mintel, 39% of US consumers reported worsening skin conditions linked to environmental or climatic changes in 2024. By 2025, 66% adjusted their skin care routines seasonally to mitigate these effects, reflecting a growing awareness of climate-related skin stress.
This shift is driving the rise of geoskincare, a trend focused on developing products tailored to regional environmental conditions, responding to consumers’ desire for personalized skin protection. Ceramide NP has emerged as a hero ingredient in this context, supporting skin’s resilience against external aggressors.
DS-Ceramide Y3S™ answers this demand by offering a scientifically backed, naturally derived solution that enhances skin health and barrier function no matter the climate challenges.
DS-Ceramide Y3S™ is a 100% bioactive, skin-identical ceramide NP with a stearic acid chain that supports and restores the skin’s natural barrier across various climates. Its key benefits include:
- Strengthening the skin barrier by replenishing it with its most abundant ceramide,
- Boosting skin hydration,
- Promoting climate-resilient skin and
- Protecting against harsh conditions such as heat, cold, dry and humid environments.
DS-Ceramide Y3S™ provides significant immediate protection against moisture loss, increasing skin hydration up to 50% under dry and cold conditions, and a +47% cumulative hydration after two weeks in dry and hot environments.
DS-HydroCeramide50™ & 50S™: Strengthening Skin, Deeper Performance and Higher Solubility
Skin dehydration and barrier disruption are widespread concerns, now increasingly considered in daily hygiene routines. Common habits such as frequent washing and showers, and the use of hot water and exposure to harsh surfactants from cleansing products can strip essential skin lipids and compromise the skin’s natural protective barrier, resulting in dryness, irritation and heightened sensitivity.
According to a 2023 Mintel report, 92% of US body wash users believe caring for the skin on their bodies is just as important as facial skin care, underscoring the growing momentum behind the skinification of toiletries.
Skinification embraces a whole-body approach, applying skin care principles and active ingredients beyond the face to support overall skin health and well-being.
Incorporating hero ingredients such as ceramides into daily hygiene routines helps to reinforce the skin’s natural defense, delivering comfort and protection to often-overlooked body skin exposed to daily stressors.
DS-HydroCeramide50™ and DS-HydroCeramide50S™ are innovative cosmetic actives based on a unique water-dispersible “solid-lipid” technology, delivering easy-to-use, high concentrations of Ceramide NP, the most abundant ceramide in the skin.
This advanced form:
- Improves formulation stability and solubility,
- Promotes controlled and prolonged delivery of Ceramide NP,
- Enhances stratum corneum ceramide bioavailability and
- Replenishes, hydrates and repairs the skin.
DS-HydroCeramide50™ increases ceramide bioavailability by 93.7% in 3D human skin models, outperforming pure Ceramide NP. In addition, when incorporated into a body wash, this product enhances skin barrier function by reducing trans-epidermal water loss down to 27% after two weeks of daily use.
