Phytosphingosine is a natural sphingoid component related to skin ceramides and barrier formation.
Human and laboratory data show it can support filaggrin/NMF pathways and skin hydration. It also has anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial activity in experimental models, making it more than a simple emollient.
