Science & Benefits

Fructose is a monosaccharide found in fruits and honey. It acts as a powerful water-binding agent and skin-conditioning active. It is 100% non-comedogenic. Because it is a smaller molecule than sucrose, it penetrates slightly deeper into the epidermis, offering 'internal' hydration for skin that is chronically parched from the use of harsh surfactants or benzoyl peroxide.
