Description
Polyglutamic Acid is a biopolymer that is formed as a result of fermentation of soy by certain bacteria. In cosmetics, it is used as a powerful moisturizer that can hold 4 times more moisture than hyaluronic acid. This ingredient effectively reduces transepidermal water loss, increases skin elasticity, smooths its surface and provides softness. In addition, Polyglutamic Acid can improve the penetration of other active ingredients into the skin. Ideal for dehydrated, dry and mature skin.
