Mannitol is a sugar alcohol that is added to cosmetic products due to its numerous beneficial properties. It is used as a moisturizing agent, capable of retaining moisture and preserving skin hydration, making it soft and smooth. Mannitol also acts as an antioxidant, protecting the skin from harmful environmental influences and preventing premature aging. Its properties as a stabilizer help maintain the stability of cosmetic formulas, ensuring a consistent texture of products.
