Grand HPTP

Grand HPTPis a high-performance active featuring Hydroxypropyl Tetrahydropyrantriol derived from beech wood. This sugar protein defends the skin against water loss by upregulating moisturizing-related genes. It acts as a metabolic primer to promote the production of glycosaminoglycans and proteoglycans. This process increases the firmness of the epidermal junction layer and restructures skin tissue layer by layer. The molecule utilizes a high-activity S-configuration to ensure superior skin permeability.
