| Moisturizer Skin Treatments is a growing trend |

Ceramides are one of three types of lipids, or fats, that help keep moisture in the skin. Ceramide-containing moisturizers are a new breed of moisturizers that contain the same balance of lipids as your skin. Studies show that they help treat eczema, but they can be used by anyone with dry skin. Because I only want to recommend products that have been proven to be effective, I have included in my review whether good published data is available for each product.
CeraVe uses a patented delivery technology called Multivesicular Emulsion (MVE) to allow its ingredients to absorb into the skin over time. According to the website, the data supporting the effectiveness of CeraVe is on file with the manufacturer. I have requested this data, but have not seen it yet. Despite this fact, I have been recommending CeraVe to my patients because it is available over-the-counter and is affordably priced, less than $15.
TriCeram is a �Cermaide Dominant Barrier Repair� moisturizer that is also available over-the-counter. TriCeram does have good data to show that use of the moisturizer with current eczema therapies helped the skin heal faster than skin treated with usual eczema medications. It is fairly expensive, though, at $30 for a 3.4 ounce tube.
Remergent�s Barrier Repair Formula uses a delivery system they call merospheres. These merospheres have lipids that surround a chemical called ursolic acid, and they work by causing cells of the epidermis to produce ceramides to retain moisture and other chemicals that firm up collagen. This dual action makes Barrier Repair Formula good for moisturizing and reducing wrinkles. It is pretty pricey at $95 for 50 milliliters. These moisturizers can prove to be very efficient in treating dried skin compare to expensive chemical or laser treatment options.
