Science

Mechanism of Action

This ingredient functions as an effective emollient, delivering a smooth and supple feel to the skin. It creates a protective film that actively prevents trans-epidermal water loss, thereby sealing in moisture. This barrier also provides protection against external stressors. Beyond its skin-conditioning benefits, it acts as a binding agent and viscosity controller, contributing to the overall stability and texture of cosmetic formulations.
