Succinoglycan

A fermentation-derived polysaccharide used to thicken and hydrate formulas. It absorbs and holds water in the skin, contributing to a smooth texture. Limited clinical data but no known sensitizers or safety concerns at cosmetic use levels.

Cosmetic information for general education, not medical advice. A verdict is a reading of the published evidence, never a guarantee for your skin: any ingredient can irritate someone, so patch test new products and see a professional if you react. Concern is graded on cited evidence, never on hazard-score lists. See how we score.
