Welcome to our skincare science channel! In this video, we delve into the fascinating world of N-Acetylglucosamine (NAG), a skin-identical ingredient with incredible potential. Join us as we explore what NAG is, how it's formulated, and the percentages commonly used in cosmetics.
Discover the potential benefits of NAG, from its hydrating properties as a precursor to hyaluronic acid to its ability to target hyperpigmentation effectively. Learn about the synergy between NAG and niacinamide for maximum results. We also uncover NAG's role in wound healing and its gentle exfoliation abilities, maintaining optimal hydration levels and modulating skin cell adhesion.
Rest assured, NAG has undergone safety testing, demonstrating its non-cytotoxic and non-genotoxic nature, along with its antioxidant capacity. Find out how NAG can penetrate beyond the skin's surface and reach cells beneath the stratum corneum.
If you're passionate about the science behind skincare, this video is a must-watch. Join our community of skincare enthusiasts and stay tuned for more captivating insights into the world of skincare science. Don't forget to subscribe to our channel for regular updates!
