More Information
A humectant is a crucial ingredient used in various topical dosage forms, particularly in enhancing the solubility of active ingredients in pharmaceuticals and cosmetics. Its primary purpose is to increase the effectiveness of chemical compounds, allowing them to better penetrate the skin and extend their activity time.
Humectants operate by drawing moisture from the environment, creating a hydrating effect that is especially beneficial in countering the dehydrating impact of certain active ingredients like soaps, corticoids, and certain alcohols.
Common humectants
•Oil: Glycerin is a natural humectant that attracts large amounts of water.
•Hyaluronic Acid: Hyaluronic acid is a natural polysaccharide.
•Allantoin: Allantoin has a moisturizing and cuticle softening effect.
•Natural Oils: Vegetable oils, such as olive oil and sweet almond oil, are rich in fatty acids.
