Alpha-glucans are natural polysaccharides, complex sugars found in many biological sources such as yeasts and cereals. Available scientific data links them to several complementary actions on skin comfort and appearance.
Yeast-derived alpha-glucans are associated, according to available data, with supporting the renewal of the skin surface, which is recognized for contributing to skin comfort and preserving hydration comfort against external factors such as UV and pollution.
Complementary beta-glucans, notably from oats, are linked to documented soothing properties and support mechanisms involved in maintaining skin structure, themselves related to the appearance of firmness and visible reduction of fine lines.
Both glucan families are also documented for their contribution to skin comfort against external factors, resulting in skin that appears more soothed and comfortable daily.
