Formulation Deep Dive
Glow Recipe’s Avocado Ceramide Recovery Serum is formulated as a high-performance, water-based emulsion designed to provide intensive barrier repair and soothe reactive skin. The carrier system employs a sophisticated humectant and lipid base, utilizing Glycerin and Jojoba Esters alongside Persea Gratissima (Avocado) Oil and Fruit Extract to establish a moisture-retentive film and restore essential fatty acids. The formulation’s efficacy is centered on a multi-lamellar lipid complex featuring five types of Ceramides (NP, NS, AP, EOP, EOS) and Cholesterol, which work synergistically with Niacinamide (Vitamin B3) and Palmitoyl Tripeptide-8 to reinforce the stratum corneum and mitigate pro-inflammatory responses. Technical stability is achieved through a rheology-modifying network of Xanthan Gum and Carbomer, complemented by Cetearyl Olivate and Sorbitan Olivate emulsifiers to maintain structural integrity. The preservation system is managed via a combination of Phenoxyethanol, Sodium Benzoate, and 1,2-Hexanediol to ensure broad-spectrum microbial protection.
