DescriptionPhytosphingosine is a sphingolipid, an amino alcohol and a triol. Phytosphingosine is a sphingolipid endogenous to many organisms involved in cell signaling. Phytosphingosine is signaled by the presence of Phytosphingosine, with the induction of apoptosis accompanied by activation of caspase-8-mediated and mitochondrial activation-mediated apoptotic pathways. It has the effects of repairing the skin barrier, moisturizing, whitening and removing dark circles, scalp care, treating acne and ulcers, anti-inflammatory and antibacterial, anti-aging and wrinkling.
