GLYCERYL ALLYL ETHER.

Optional / SKIN CONDITIONING

Glyceryl Allyl Ether functions as a humectant and skin conditioning agent. By drawing moisture into the skin, it supports epidermal hydration and barrier function, leading to a softer, smoother skin texture.

Summary

Skin conditioning agent Humectant

Science

Mechanism of Action

This ingredient operates as a humectant, similar to glycerin, by actively attracting and retaining water molecules from the surrounding environment onto the skin's surface. This mechanism is anticipated to enhance epidermal hydration, fortify the skin's natural barrier, and contribute to a more supple and refined skin feel.
