Description
Glycoproteins are protein molecules that contain attached carbohydrate chains. They are usually extracted from seaweeds or other sources of animal or plant origin. They have the following properties which are beneficial for the skin: 1. Moisturizing action: Glycoproteins penetrate into the deeper layers of the skin and retain moisture, which helps to improve skin hydration. 2. Regenerative properties: Glycoproteins can help with skin regeneration, reduce inflammation and stimulate cell growth. 3. Protective properties: Glycoproteins have antioxidant action which helps to protect the skin from free radicals and other harmful environmental factors. 4. Improved elasticity: Glycoproteins can help to increase skin elasticity and improve its structure. In general, adding Glycoproteins to cosmetic products can help to improve the health and appearance of the skin, moisturize it, improve its elasticity and protect it from harmful environmental factors.
