Science & Benefits

Sorbitol is a sugar alcohol found naturally in various fruits. It acts as a humectant similar to glycerin but with a slightly less tacky finish. It also functions as a prebiotic, potentially supporting a healthy skin microbiome. It is 100% non-comedogenic. In acne-safe formulations, it provides a smooth, hydrated surface and prevents product 'dry-out,' ensuring the delivery system of the product remains intact throughout its shelf life.
