Science & Benefits
Sodium Aspartate is the sodium salt of the amino acid aspartic acid, a foundational component of the skin's Natural Moisturizing Factor (NMF). It functions as a bio-mimetic humectant that binds water molecules to the stratum corneum, maintaining skin elasticity and suppleness. It is zero-comedogenic and exceptionally mild. It is a 'bulletproof' basic humectant that supports the skin barrier and prevents the 'cracking' and flaking associated with inflammatory acne or drying treatments like benzoyl peroxide or retinoids.
