If an active ingredient is "liposomal," it is usually wrapped in this.

5X Ceramide Barrier Repair Moisture Gel
Skintific
5X Ceramide Barrier Repair Moisture Gel
Moisturizer

The undisputed multi-million-unit hyper-bestseller across Malaysia that completely redefined mass-market barrier repair. Skintific bridges the gap between intense lipid replenishment and the strict weightless demands of tropical humidity by deploying an advanced, self-assembling **5-Ceramide Network (NP, NS, AS, AP, EOP)** structurally mirroring the physiological intercellular matrix of the stratum corneum. Free from drying denatured alcohols and harsh parabens, it envelopes cells inside a refreshing water-burst emulsion vehicle that dissolves upon friction. The physical texture is a beautifully translucent, bouncy aqua-gel cream that slides across the face with zero mechanical friction, flashing dry within 15 seconds into an absolute bare, weightless satin dewy-plump skin feel.
