Humectants In Cosmetics
Humectants are substances used to reduce the loss of moisture. They are often found in hair and skin products. While the majority of humectants contain at least one hydroxyl group (-OH), they can be separated into several different categories: alcohols, provitamins, proteins, saccharides, and many other types of molecules.
Humectants in hair products can significantly impact the way our hair behaves during weather changes. Humidity draws in moisture from the air. Depending on the type of hair you have, the high moisture in humid air can either create limp, weighed down hair, or frizzy, unruly locks. Conversely, humectants can provide just the moisture you need in dry climates. Ultimately, you may find it necessary to switch out your products
