Key Benefits
Hydration-supporting polysaccharide. Beta-Glucan is used in water-based skin-care systems to help support a moisturized, soft and comfortable skin feel.[R6–R7]
Soothing formulation concept. It is frequently selected for sensitive-skin, post-cleansing and daily comfort concepts where formulators want a non-fragranced, water-soluble active. [R6–R7]
Skin-conditioning support. High-molecular-weight polysaccharides can contribute to a conditioned surface feel and help formulators build gentle hydration systems. The final sensory result must be screened for tack, stringiness and viscosity. [R1, R7]
High-purity development format. The ≥99% powder allows the formulator to set the active concentration without the carrier load of a dilute solution, while the water-soluble format supports use in many aqueous and emulsion systems.
Typical Applications
- Hydrating facial serums, toners, essences and gel-creams
- Daily moisturizers, eye-area cosmetics and body lotions
- Sensitive-skin and post-cleansing comfort concepts without drug claims
- Hydrogel, sheet-mask essence and rinse-off mask systems
- Gentle facial cleansers, body washes and scalp-care cosmetics
- Leave-on hair and scalp formulations where water-soluble conditioning support is desired
Quick Formulation Guide
|
Control |
Starting guidance |
|
Typical use level |
0.5–2% as a cosmetic starting range [R3] |
|
Phase |
Water phase or a separately prepared aqueous concentrate |
|
Pre-dispersion |
Slowly wet the powder into room-temperature water under efficient mixing. For difficult systems, pre-disperse in a compatible humectant before dilution. |
|
Temperature |
Add during cool-down at 40°C [R3] |
|
pH |
4.5–7.0 [R3] |
|
Viscosity / feel |
Polysaccharides may change flow, film feel or tack. Screen several use levels rather than assuming a linear sensory response. |
|
Preservation |
Do not treat the raw material as self-preserving. Validate the finished product with a suitable preservation system and microbiological testing. |

Why Source From Us
- Start with samples scale to bulk orders – one supplier from trial to production: Validate with lab samples, then scale to commercial volumes – same quality, same team. No re-qualification, no project delays.
- Formulation support that actually helps – not just a data sheet: We give you hands-on guidance on solubility, temperature, pH, and compatibility. A real formulation partner, not a catalog.
- Reliable supply chain – consistent quality, on-time delivery, batch after batch: Own manufacturing facilities plus long-term partnerships with audited upstream producers ensure batch-to-batch consistency. Full documentation with every shipment. No "sample passes, bulk fails"
- Export-ready documentation – compliance, customs, cleared：Complete technical documentation packages – COA, MSDS, TDS, stability data – batch-specific and regulatory-ready. We handle the paperwork so your compliance and procurement teams can focus on formulation
