Science & Benefits

Sucrose is a disaccharide combining glucose and fructose. It is highly hygroscopic, drawing moisture into the stratum corneum. It is entirely non-comedogenic. For acne sufferers, it serves as a superior alternative to glycerin in 'weightless' formulas, providing hydration that feels clean and disappears into the skin without leaving a sticky residue that could trap environmental pollutants.
