Ingredients Details
Polyglutamic Acid
Common Name(s): Pga,poly-l-glutamic acid,natto gum
CAS Number: 25513-46-6
DESCRIPTION
What It Does: Provides 4-5ร greater water retention than hyaluronic acid for unmatched skin hydration.
Why It's Used: The most powerful humectant available โ 4-5ร the water-binding capacity of ha โ for formulations requiring maximum hydration intensity in a single ingredient.
How It Works: High density of free glutamic acid carboxylate groups provides exceptional water binding capacity (~5000ร its dry weight in water, vs ha's ~1000ร). forms thin hydrating film on skin surface. inhibits hyaluronidase, protecting endogenous ha from degradation. also promotes ha synthesis.
Typically Found In: Premium hydrating serums,ultra-hydration products
TECHNICAL DETAILS
Primary Category: Active ingredient โ microbial humectant
Secondary Functions: Maximum water retention,ha protection,film forming
Application Areas:
Facial Skincare
Body Care
Hair Care
Beard Care
Color Cosmetics (Makeup)
Dietary/Oral Supplements
Typical Concentration Range: 0.1%โ5%
SOURCING & ETHICS
Vegan Status: Yes โ bacillus subtilis fermentation
Halal Status: Yes
Source Notes: Synthetic or naturally derived. excellent aqueous solubility.
SKIN COMPATIBILITY
Irritancy Rating: 1/5 โ very low
Comedogenicity Rating: 0/5 โ non-comedogenic
Sensitivity Concerns: Non-irritating; suitable for all skin types.
Safe for Sensitive Skin: Yes
SAFETY & COMPATIBILITY
Safety Profile: Excellent safety profile. ewg score: 1.
Works Well With: Ceramides,emollients,occlusives,glycerin,hyaluronic acid
Avoid Combining With: No significant incompatibilities
SCIENTIFIC NOTE
Pga's water-holding capacity of ~5000g water/g pga (vs ha's ~1000g water/g) derives from its exceptionally dense carboxylate group array. the glutamic acid polymer backbone provides a carboxylate group every ~0.37nm along the chain โ the highest density of water-binding anionic groups achievable in a linear biopolymer structure.

Saccharide Isomerate
Common Name(s): Pentavitin,carbohydrate complex
CAS Number: N/a
DESCRIPTION
What It Does: Provides wash-resistant, long-lasting skin hydration through unique covalent binding to skin surface proteins.
Why It's Used: The only humectant that covalently binds to skin proteins for wash-resistant, 72-hour moisture retention โ categorically different mechanism from all other humectants.
How It Works: Carbohydrate complex with aldehyde-generating groups forms reversible schiff base covalent bonds with lysine epsilon-amino groups in skin surface proteins. this covalent binding retains the humectant on skin through washing, sweat, and environmental exposure for up to 72 hours.
Typically Found In: Long-lasting moisturizers,anti-chapping products,sports skincare
TECHNICAL DETAILS
Primary Category: Active ingredient โ carbohydrate complex humectant
Secondary Functions: Covalent skin binding,wash-resistant,72h hydration

Typical Concentration Range: 1%โ10%
SOURCING & ETHICS
Vegan Status: Yes โ from plant carbohydrates

SKIN COMPATIBILITY
Irritancy Rating: 1/5 โ very low
Comedogenicity Rating: 0/5 โ non-comedogenic

SAFETY & COMPATIBILITY
Safety Profile: Excellent safety profile. ewg score: 1.
Works Well With: Ceramides,emollients,occlusives,glycerin,hyaluronic acid
Avoid Combining With: No significant incompatibilities
SCIENTIFIC NOTE
No other cosmetic humectant forms covalent bonds with skin proteins โ all others (glycerin, ha, sodium pca) interact through non-covalent hydrogen bonds that are disrupted by washing or sweat. saccharide isomerate's schiff base chemistry creates bonds that survive the ph and mechanical disruption of washing, explaining clinical evidence for 72-hour hydration persistence.
