Saccharide Isomerate Complex

Saccharide Isomerate Complex is a 100% plant-derived carbohydrate complex, similar to that found in human skin. The molecules bind to the skin, preventing epidermal water loss, delivering immediate & long-lasting hydration for up to 72 hours. As a vegan hyaluronic acid booster, we use Saccharide Isomerate complex in our products as it contains no animal by-products, so you can be confident that this product is cruelty-free and highly efficacious. This can be found in our Rehydrate and Restore.

Saccharide Isomerate Complex is clinically proven to provide short and long-term
hydration. The case study image below shows the increase in hydration to the stratum corneum (the outer surfece of the skin) after 3 hours and after 28 days, where Saccharide Isomerate Complex was applied twice per day.

The above table shows Saccharide Isomerate vs. Placebo. The results show after twice daily application of Saccharide Isomerate Complex, there is a significant improvement in hydration across all facial areas. Just 3 hours after a single application, the excessively dry cheek area is significantly more hydrated.

After 4 weeks of continuous use, Saccharide Isomerate Complex improves the signs of dry skin by 20%, with effects lasting long after the final application 6 days later.

Saccharide Isomerate Complex in an aqueous solution improves and strengthens
the skin barrier function as shown by the 20% reduction in trans-epidermal water loss before and after 20 successive tape strips after a 28-day application on the below graph.
