Description
Isomalt is a sugar alcohol used in cosmetics as a moisturizer and texturizer. It attracts and retains moisture, making it effective in skin and hair moisturizing products. In addition, Isomalt improves formula stability, prevents product drying out, and can act as a carrier for active ingredients. Due to its gentle action, it is often used in products for sensitive, irritated, or baby skin. It is safe and does not cause irritation.
