Key Benefits
Amino acid — NMF component, hydration and barrier function
How It Works
Non-essential amino acid that is a key NMF component maintaining stratum corneum hydration. Precursor to ceramides via the sphingolipid biosynthesis pathway. Also a building block for proteins and phospholipids.
Why BP Derma Uses It
Serine contributes to the complete amino acid NMF complex in our hydration gel and cream, where it helps restore the skin's natural moisture-binding capacity and supports ceramide synthesis for a stronger skin barrier.
