INULIN

About this ingredient

Inulin is a natural polysaccharide derived from plant sources (commonly chicory root or Jerusalem artichoke) that functions as a humectant and skin conditioning agent in cosmetic formulations. It draws moisture into the skin and provides a smooth, conditioning feel while also acting as a prebiotic that may support skin microbiome health. It is often used in skincare products for hydration and texture enhancement.
