Abstract

Background: Skin is the largest organ that functions as a physical barrier. Stable skin pH can maximize its function. Ceramide and shea butter cream have components that maintain the skin pH in the stratum corneum. Purpose: The aim is to compare ceramide and shea butter cream effects on skin pH. Methods: The experimental analytic study was performed on 30 respondents. The skin pH measurement was done before applying creams and 30 days after applying ceramide cream and shea butter cream. Ceramide cream was applied on the right volar and shea butter cream on the left volar. Comparative analysis with a paired t-test was used with a significant value of p<0.05. Results: The average skin pH after applying ceramide cream was 4,61±1,19, while shea butter cream was 5,30±1.07. The derivation of skin pH after ceramide cream application was 1,57±1,26, and that of shea butter cream was 0,88±1,14. The application of ceramide cream showed a lower pH than shea butter cream significantly, with p=0.025. Conclusion: The intervention using ceramide and shea butter cream for 30 days could lower the skin pH level. The derivation of skin pH with ceramide is more significant than using shea butter cream. Ceramide can be considered to maintain skin homeostasis and skin pH.

神经酰胺比乳木果油更能维持皮肤酸度
背景:皮肤是具有物理屏障功能的最大器官。稳定的皮肤pH值可以最大限度地发挥其功能。神经酰胺和乳木果奶油含有维持角质层皮肤pH值的成分。目的:比较神经酰胺和乳木果乳膏对皮肤ph值的影响。方法:对30名受访者进行实验分析研究。皮肤pH值测量是在涂抹面霜前和涂抹神经酰胺面霜和乳木果乳霜后30天进行的。神经酰胺乳霜涂在右掌部,乳木果油乳霜涂在左掌部。比较分析采用配对t检验,p<0.05为显著值。结果:神经酰胺乳膏涂抹后皮肤pH平均值为4.61±1.19,乳木果油乳膏涂抹后皮肤pH平均值为5.30±1.07。神经酰胺乳霜对皮肤pH值的影响为1.57±1.26,乳木果乳霜对皮肤pH值的影响为0.88±1.14。神经酰胺乳膏的pH值显著低于乳木果乳膏,p=0.025。结论:神经酰胺联合乳木果油乳膏干预30 d可降低皮肤pH值。神经酰胺对皮肤pH值的影响比乳木果油霜更显著。神经酰胺可以被认为是维持皮肤内稳态和皮肤pH值。
