Science & Benefits

Polyglucuronic Acid is a high-molecular-weight polymer derived from glucuronic acid. It mimics the structure of Hyaluronic Acid but often provides a more breathable, less tacky film on the skin. It stimulates the synthesis of laminin-5 and collagen, facilitating cellular repair and barrier fortification. It is entirely non-comedogenic and carries a zero-irritant profile. It is a high-value active for acne-prone individuals who require intensive moisture and tissue-recovery support without the 'filmy' residue that can sometimes trap sebum.
