Ingredients: Xylitylglucoside, Anhydroxylitol, Aqua (Water), Xylitol.
Power Hydrator is a proprietary blend of three sugars Xylitylglucoside (made from xylitol and glucose); Anhydroxylitol (dehydrated Xylitol) and Xylitol (natural plant sugar alcohol also known as a polyol).
Xylitol is often used in food applications as a sweet, low calorie sugar replacement but it also has benefits when applied to the skin. When applied topically, Xylitol has been found to improve the way water is transported across the skin, improving hydration and barrier functioning.
Power Hydrator builds on the action of Xylitol, creating an active with long-lasting effects, great skin compatibility and no sticky after-feel.
