Humectants

Humectants are water-attracting molecules that pull moisture from the environment or deeper skin layers into the upper layers of the skin. They are key to maintaining hydration, suppleness, and nutrient delivery. In AgeBiome™ rituals, humectants like hyaluronic acid are used to enhance product absorption, support barrier function, and prepare the skin for peptide or collagen stimulation.

Why It’s Used:

• Increases hydration in the epidermis and DEJ
• Enhances absorption and performance of active ingredients
• Prevents dryness during exfoliation or environmental stress
• Creates a plump, dewy texture pre- and post-treatment
• Works synergistically with emollients and occlusives in layered care
• Supports a well-hydrated biome for optimal cellular signaling
