About this ingredient

Fructose is a naturally occurring simple sugar derived from fruits, honey, or synthesized from glucose. In cosmetics, it functions as a humectant and skin conditioning agent that draws moisture into the skin and provides hydration. It also offers gentle sweetening properties and can support the skin's natural moisture barrier.
