Science & Benefits

Xylose is a natural sugar extracted from beech wood. In skin biology, it acts as a precursor to the synthesis of glycosaminoglycans (GAGs), most notably Hyaluronic Acid. By signaling the skin to produce its own moisture from within, it provides 'structural hydration' rather than just a surface film. It is entirely non-comedogenic and zero-irritant. It is a logical choice for adult acne routines, where maintaining skin density and hydration is as important as preventing follicular blockages.
