GLYCOGEN

Safety grade: A

Glycogen is a carbohydrate that your body naturally uses to store energy, derived from plant or animal sources. In skincare, it acts like a moisture magnet, helping your skin retain water and stay hydrated.

Glycogen is used in cosmetics to attract and hold moisture in the skin, improving hydration and leaving the skin feeling soft, smooth, and more supple.
