Glucosyl Hesperidin
What Glucosyl Hesperidin is & what it does
Glucosyl Hesperidin is a water-soluble derivative of hesperidin, a citrus flavonoid, modified with a glucose unit to improve its solubility and stability. In skincare it is commonly used as an antioxidant and a conditioning ingredient, and it is often associated with supporting an even, radiant look. Its enhanced solubility makes it easier to incorporate into water-based serums and lotions than plain hesperidin. It is generally considered a gentle, supportive ingredient rather than a primary active.
