Product Description

SkinCeuticals Triple Lipid Restore 2:4:2 is a lipid-rich anti-ageing moisturiser formulated with a precisely balanced ratio of 2% ceramides, 4% natural cholesterol, and 2% fatty acids. This ceramide face cream helps restore skin’s natural barrier, nourish dry or ageing skin, and support visible improvement in elasticity, tone, and radiance. Its science-backed formulation addresses the lipid depletion that naturally occurs with age, improving the appearance of wrinkles, fullness, and smoothness.

SCIENCE + PROOF

Visible Results

Clinical testing of Triple Lipid Restore 2:4:2 found:

  • 66% improvement in skin smoothness

  • 35% improvement in skin laxity

  • 26% improvement in radiance

  • 20% improvement in skin evenness

  • 44% improvement in pore appearance

A secondary lipidomic analysis also revealed:

  • 57% increase in ceramides

  • 50% increase in cholesterol

  • 12% increase in fatty acids (as triglycerides)

The Science Behind Triple Lipid Restore 2:4:2

What Is Lipid Depletion?

As we age, the skin’s production of ceramides, cholesterol, and fatty acids declines. This lipid loss weakens the skin’s barrier, leading to rough texture, visible signs of accelerated ageing, and reduced self-repair. Restoring these lipids helps re-strengthen the barrier and restore radiance.

2:4:2 Ingredient Ratio

SkinCeuticals’ 2:4:2 formulation replicates the optimal balance of lipids found in healthy, youthful skin. This cholesterol-dominant ratio supports repair while improving softness, elasticity, and skin comfort.

Triple Lipid Restore + Tretinoin

Tretinoin, a prescription-strength retinoid, is known to cause dryness and irritation during the adjustment period. Triple Lipid Restore 2:4:2 is clinically shown to reduce discomfort and dryness during this phase, supporting treatment adherence and outcomes.

How to Use With Retinol or Tretinoin (The Sandwich Method)

  • Cleanse + Pre-Moisturise

  • Begin with a gentle cleanser, then apply a hydrating serum or thin layer of moisturiser.

  • Apply Retinol or Tretinoin

  • Use a pea-sized amount of your retinoid treatment.

  • Seal With Triple Lipid Restore 2:4:2

  • Finish with a layer of Triple Lipid Restore to trap moisture, reduce irritation, and enhance treatment effectiveness.

INGREDIENTS

Key Ingredients

  • Paraben-Free

  • Dye-Free

  • 2% Pure Ceramides 1 & 3

These skin-identical lipids work synergistically to support hydration and improve barrier function. Ceramides help maintain moisture and protect against environmental stressors.

4% Natural Cholesterol

A vital component of the skin’s lipid matrix, cholesterol aids in barrier repair and supports visible improvements in radiance and facial fullness—especially in ageing or lipid-depleted skin.

2% Fatty Acids

These essential lipids help stabilise the skin barrier, improve elasticity, and promote overall lipid balance for smoother, more resilient skin.

Essential Oil Blend

A refreshing combination of lavender, rosemary, and peppermint oils delivers a cooling sensation while helping to nourish and comfort the skin.
