Product Description
N-Acetylglucosamine is a naturally occurring amino sugar, a derivative of glucose, and a key precursor in the synthesis of hyaluronic acid and glycosaminoglycans. In cosmetics, it is typically obtained via biofermentation or chemical synthesis, appearing as a white powder. It is highly water-soluble and boasts excellent skin compatibility, making it suitable for various skin types.
