Description
Hydrolyzed Glycosaminoglycans are compounds often used in cosmetics due to their potential benefits for the skin: 1. Moisturizing and preserving moisture: they have the ability to bind water. They can attract and retain moisture on the surface of the skin, which can improve moisturizing and make the skin softer and smoother. 2. Strengthening the skin barrier function: they can improve the skin barrier function, which protects against external agents and prevents moisture loss. 3. Reducing inflammation and irritation: some studies have shown that H-GAGs may have anti-inflammatory properties and help reduce skin inflammation and irritation. 4. Improving the appearance of wrinkles: they are sometimes used in anti-aging cosmetics as an ingredient that can help improve the appearance of the skin, reduce the visibility of wrinkles and increase its elasticity.
