Full ingredient breakdown
3
A gold-standard humectant that draws water into the skin.
4
A sugar-based humectant that holds water and helps skin resist dehydration stress.
14
A postbiotic ingredient produced by lysing (rupturing) Lactobacillus bacteria, releasing intracellular metabolites that support the skin microbiome and strengthen the barrier.
15
A versatile vitamin B3 derivative with multiple benefits.
20
A copper-rich mineral extract derived from malachite that enhances the skin's cellular antioxidant defences, particularly superoxide dismutase, to protect against oxidative stress.
21
A glucoside of xylitol used as a humectant, typically combined with anhydroxylitol and xylitol in the Actimoist moisturizing complex.
23
A dehydrated xylitol derivative used as a humectant, typically found alongside xylitylglucoside and xylitol in biomimetic moisturizing complexes.
25
The salt form of hyaluronic acid; penetrates more readily.
27
A plant-derived sugar alcohol that hydrates skin and supports its moisture barrier.
28
A naturally occurring trisaccharide (glucose + galactose + fructose) found in plants such as sugar beets, used in cosmetics as a humectant and prebiotic to hydrate skin and support a balanced microbiome.
30
A cationic quaternary-ammonium derivative of hyaluronic acid that binds electrostatically to negatively charged skin proteins, delivering sustained surface hydration.
32
A postbiotic ferment used to support the skin microbiome and barrier.
33
A polysaccharide humectant that hydrates and calms; often compared to hyaluronic acid.
37
A mushroom-derived polysaccharide humectant with a small particle size for lightweight hydration.
38
A humectant that can hold many times its weight in water.
41
Natto gum is polyglutamic acid (PGA) — a biopolymer produced by Bacillus subtilis during the fermentation of soybeans (natto). It has extraordinary water-holding capacity, exceeding even hyaluronic acid. Used in Matsuyama's Hadauru ceramide line for superior moisturization.
42
A skin-identical lipid that rebuilds the barrier.
43
Vitamin E; a lipid-soluble antioxidant that also conditions skin.
