Why this trending skincare ingredient is essential — and how Wildling delivers it, naturally.
If you’re even mildly skincare-curious, chances are you’ve seen the word “ceramides” popping up everywhere lately — but what exactly are ceramides, and why does your skin need them?
Let’s break it down.
What Are Ceramides?
Ceramides are essential lipids (aka fats) naturally found in your skin. They make up over 50% of your skin’s barrier — the protective outer layer that keeps moisture in and irritants out.
When your skin is healthy and balanced, ceramides help it stay firm, hydrated, and resilient. But when your barrier is compromised — due to stress, harsh products, weather changes, or over-exfoliation — your skin can’t hold onto moisture as easily, leaving it dry, dull, and more prone to irritation.
Why Our Ceramides Are Different
Most skincare products on the market use lab-synthesized ceramides to mimic what your skin produces. While that’s not necessarily a bad thing, at Wildling we believe in a deeper kind of nourishment — one that comes directly from the Earth.
Our Empress Barrier Repair Oil is naturally rich in plant-based ceramides — no synthetics, no lab mimicry. Just wild plants that work with your skin’s biology to deeply support, protect, and restore.
Using ceramides regularly can help:
- Strengthen the skin barrier – making your skin more resilient over time
- Calm sensitivity and redness – ideal for reactive or stressed skin
- Deeply hydrate – by sealing in moisture and preventing water loss
- Support skin health and glow – from the inside out
Meet the Empress Barrier Repair Oil
Powered by plant-derived ceramides, wildcrafted botanicals, and ritual-based skincare wisdom, the Empress Barrier Repair Oil is designed to restore balance, strengthen the barrier, and leave your skin soft, nourished, and radiant.
