Understanding beauty ingredients: Acetyl Glucosamine

Does the skin care product you have now have the power to solve your skin problems?

Many people check the ingredients and labelling when purchasing food at a supermarket or convenience store, but how many people check the ingredients labelling on cosmetics?

This time, we will talk about acetyl glucosamine, an ingredient that is often used in the TTF series.

Acetyl glucosamine is the source of hyaluronic acid.

Hyaluronic acid is an important ingredient that keeps skin moisturized.
However, it decreases with age, and by the time you reach 60, it is half what it was in your 20s.
The decrease in hyaluronic acid is a major factor in skin aging.

So, you may be wondering, will using skin care products that contain a lot of hyaluronic acid make your skin look younger?
Unfortunately, hyaluronic acid molecules are large, so even if they temporarily moisturize the surface of the skin, they do not reach the deepest part of the skin (the dermis).

On the other hand, acetyl glucosamine molecules are 400 to 3,000 times smaller than hyaluronic acid, allowing them to penetrate deep into the skin and promote the production of hyaluronic acid.

Acetyl glucosamine, which has high penetrating power, is an essential ingredient for keeping skin moisturized and smooth.

By learning about skin care ingredients, you will be able to find the skin care products that your skin needs.
