Hydration Starts With the Right Humectant System

A hydrating formula does not have to rely on a single ingredient. You may be choosing between Glycerin, Sodium Hyaluronate, Sodium PCA, Sodium Polyglutamate, Urea, Trehalose, Betaine or other humectant ingredients depending on the product format and the hydration profile you want to build.

Whether you are developing a lightweight serum, a hydrating mask, a richer body-care formula or a commercial product, start with the role you want the humectant system to play.
