Cutting Edge Skin Barrier Technology

At Dr. Raymond Labs we created NEUROMIDE, a bio-identical human microbiome metabolite to support healthy skin. Because its structure is similar to that of ceramides, the most important components of the skin barrier, we named it NEUROMIDE, meaning “new ceramide.” NEUROMIDE communicates with the body’s own endocannabinoid system. It activates the CB1 receptors in skin to increase ceramide synthesis and accelerate skin barrier recovery, effectively helping it to calm down, making dryness, redness, itchiness, and sensitivity a thing of the past. CURECODE uses NEUROMIDE and also contains prebiotics and probiotics to increase a healthy skin microbiome; Resveratrol, traditionally found in red wine, to promote healthy cell renewal. St. John’s Wort, used for centuries to treat wounds and irritation, and hemp seed oil full of skin-nourishing compounds that soothe inflammation, plump fine lines and calm breakouts. CURECODE helps care for numerous skin dysfunctions by providing what skin needs most.

Ingredients overview

Key Ingredients

Water

Good old water, aka H2O. The most common skincare ingredient of all. You can usually find it right in the very first spot of the ingredient list, meaning it’s the biggest thing out of all the stuff that makes up the product.

It’s mainly a solvent for ingredients that do not like to dissolve in oils but rather in water

Glycerin – superstar

• A natural moisturizer that’s also in our skin
• A super common, safe, effective and cheap molecule used for more than 50 years
• Not only a simple moisturizer but knows much more: keeps the skin lipids between our skin cells in a healthy (liquid crystal) state, protects against irritation, helps to restore barrier
• Effective from as low as 3% with even more benefits for dry skin at higher concentrations up to 20-40%
• High-glycerin moisturizers are awesome for treating severely dry skin

Pentylene Glycol

A multi-functional, silky feeling helper ingredient that can do quite many things. It’s used as an emulsion stabilizer, solvent and a broad spectrum antimicrobial. According to manufacturer info, it’s also a moisturizer and helps to make the product feel great on the skin. It works synergistically with preservatives and helps to improve water-resistance of sunscreens.

Niacinamide – superstar

• A multi-functional skincare superstar with several proven benefits for the skin
• Great anti-aging, wrinkle smoothing ingredient used at 4-5% concentration
• Fades brown spots alone or in combination with amino sugar, acetyl glucosamine
• Increases ceramide synthesis that results in a stronger, healthier skin barrier and better skin hydration
• Can help to improve several skin conditions including acne, rosacea, and atopic dermatitis

Centella Asiatica Extract – goodie

Centella Asiatica – or sometimes also called Gotu Kola or Cica – has been used in folk medicine for hundreds of years. It’s traditionally used to improve small wounds, burns and scratches and it’s also a well known anti-inflammatory agent for eczema.

Recently science has taken an interest in Gotu Kola as well and it turns out it really has many active compounds with several benefits. Just for hard-core geeks, the main biologically active compounds are pentacyclic triterpenoid saponins called asiaticoside, madecassoside, asiatic and madecassic acid (also called centellosides).

Acetyl Glucosamine – goodie

An amino acid sugar that can be found in the skin and does there good and important things. One of them is that it’s a precursor for the biosynthesis of superstar moisturizer, hyaluronic acid. So acetyl glucosamine itself is also an important skin-identical ingredient and natural moisturizing factor.

But that is not all, acetyl glucosamine has two other great properties proved by double-blind clinical trials. First, it’s a promising ingredient against wrinkles:  2% can improve wrinkles, particularly in the eye area.
