Science & Benefits
Obtained by enzymatic synthesis from natural sugars (sucrose and maltose), this oligosaccharide is a high-purity prebiotic. It specifically protects the skin's ecosystem by stimulating the growth of beneficial saprophytic flora at the expense of pathogens like C. acnes. As a humectant, it provides weightless moisture and helps stabilize the skin's pH. It is zero-comedogenic and zero-irritant. It is a strategic ingredient for acne-prone skin, ensuring that the barrier remains hydrated and microbiologically resilient.
