Benefits
- Serves as ‘protect and repair’ molecule as it increases natural self-protecting capabilities of the skin and also accelerates skin recovery
- Due to its high molecular weight it also has good water-binding capacity and therefore moisturizing effects
- Has been shown to stimulate collagen production in-vitro and can reduce appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
Use
Add to formulas to the water phase. Typical concentration 1-5%. Stable when kept in a closed container at a cool & dry place. For external use only.
