Functions
Skin Conditioning
A catch-all term for ingredients that improve how skin looks and feels — softer, smoother, more supple. The workhorse behind most moisturizers.
Humectant
A moisture magnet. Pulls water from the air and deeper skin layers up to the surface to keep skin plump and hydrated.
Soothing
Calms redness, irritation, and inflammation. Your skin's chill pill — great for sensitive, reactive, or post-procedure skin.
Locks in moisture
Traditional Use
A synthetic derivative of adenosine (a nucleotide) developed in the late 20th century. Intended to provide energizing and anti-fatigue benefits to skin, though adenosine itself was first identified as a natural cellular compound in the early 20th century.
