Ingredients Details
Caffeine
Common Name(s): Caffeine,methylxanthine anti-cellulite,antioxidant vasoactive
CAS Number: N/a
DESCRIPTION
What It Does: Stimulates lipolysis in adipocytes by inhibiting phosphodiesterase (preventing camp breakdown), reduces eye puffiness through vasoconstriction of periorbital capillaries, and provides antioxidant dna repair stimulation for photoprotective benefit.
Why It's Used: The only cosmetic active with a well-defined mechanism for anti-cellulite claims โ phosphodiesterase inhibition elevating adipocyte camp is the documented biochemical pathway, providing mechanism-based efficacy substantiation superior to most slimming actives.
How It Works: Caffeine inhibits phosphodiesterase (pde3, pde4) preventing camp hydrolysis โ elevated camp activates protein kinase a โ phosphorylates hormone-sensitive lipase โ lipolysis of triglycerides in adipocytes. for eye puffiness: caffeine's adenosine receptor antagonism reduces prostaglandin-mediated capillary dilation in periorbital tissue, reducing fluid accumulation.
Typically Found In: Anti-cellulite,eye creams,antioxidant products

Ceramides
Common Name(s): Ceramides,ceramide sphingolipid,sc barrier lipid
CAS Number: N/a
DESCRIPTION
What It Does: Restores sc lamellar lipid bilayers, reduces trans-epidermal water loss, repairs barrier dysfunction in dry and eczematous skin, and strengthens the physical barrier against environmental irritants.
Why It's Used: Provides direct structural barrier lipid replacement โ unlike humectants that attract water, ceramides physically rebuild the lipid bilayer architecture required to retain moisture within the skin.
How It Works: Ceramides integrate into the sc intercellular lamellar bilayer, restoring the ordered orthorhombic packing disrupted in barrier-compromised skin. the sphingosine backbone's amide bond and hydroxyl groups form the h-bonding network that stabilises the lamellar structure.
Typically Found In: Barrier repair,dry skin,eczema-prone
TECHNICAL DETAILS
Primary Category: Functional ingredient โ emollient
Secondary Functions: Barrier sealing,softening

Facial Skincare

SKIN COMPATIBILITY
Irritancy Rating: 1/5 โ very low
Comedogenicity Rating: 1/5 โ low; formulation-dependent
Sensitivity Concerns: Non-irritating.
Safe for Sensitive Skin: Yes
SAFETY & COMPATIBILITY
Safety Profile: Excellent safety profile. ewg score: 1.
Works Well With: Humectants,ceramides,actives as carrier
Avoid Combining With: No significant incompatibilities
SCIENTIFIC NOTE
Sc ceramides comprise ~50% of the sc lipid mass (by weight) and are essential for barrier function; ceramide depletion in atopic dermatitis and aged skin is a primary driver of barrier dysfunction and tewl elevation.
