Where does it come from?
Maltitol is derived from maltose, a sugar found in starches like corn, potatoes, or wheat. It is produced through the hydrogenation of maltose to create a sugar alcohol that is less sticky than glycerin, making it a valuable ingredient in various skincare products.
Moisturizing: Acts as a humectant, drawing moisture into the skin and helping to maintain hydration levels.
Smoothing: Provides a smooth and soft texture to the skin, improving the feel.
Enhancing: Helps to stabilize skincare formulations, enhancing their overall texture and consistency.
Gentle: Non-irritating and suitable for sensitive skin, making it a gentle moisturizing option.
Absorbing: It improves the absorption of other active ingredients by keeping the skin hydrated and plump.
