Description
Fructooligosaccharides are short-chain oligosaccharides that belong to prebiotics. They are added to cosmetics to support a healthy skin microflora, as they serve as food for beneficial bacteria. This helps maintain the balance of the skin, increases its protective properties, reduces the risk of irritation and inflammation. Fructooligosaccharides also contribute to skin hydration, improve its texture, and stimulate natural regeneration processes.
