Tales from Nature
Polyglutamic Acid (PGA) is a natural humectant used to reduce water loss, derived from soybeans. It has as much as four times the moisturizing power of hyaluronic acid. It consists of larger molecules that can create a film on the skin that prevents water evaporation when used in skin care, helping to keep hydration high.
Benefits
PGA primarily has the function of retaining skin moisture, counteracting skin irritation, dryness, and dryness, both during the cold season and following sun exposure.
Due to its powerful ultra-moisturizing effect, it forms a thin layer on the skin's surface that prevents water from evaporating and helps plump up cells, counteracting the formation of fine lines and sagging skin tone.
