Adults: Ceramide is commonly used in creams and lotions to help skin hold moisture and repair the skin barrier. It is generally very safe for adults to apply to normal skin.
Apply products with ceramide as directed. If you have sensitive skin, test a small area (inside forearm) for 24–48 hours before using widely. If you are pregnant or breastfeeding and concerned, you can still use it but check with your healthcare provider if you want extra reassurance.
Watch for signs of irritation such as redness, itching, burning, or swelling and stop use if these occur. The ingredient review data we used flags only low-level concerns for cancer, allergies, and effects on pregnancy/development, so there are no major red flags, but always patch-test new products and consult your doctor if you have specific health concerns.
