Xylitylglucoside

Xylitylglucoside is a disaccharide compound, mainly composed of xylitol and glucose, widely used in cosmetics, food, and pharmaceuticals, especially as a highly effective moisturizer and skin conditioner in skincare products.

Xylitylglucoside is a natural and gentle ingredient. In skincare formulations, it primarily maintains skin health through three core functions: moisturizing, soothing, and repairing. It not only enhances the skin's water-locking ability and relieves redness and sensitivity but also assists in barrier restoration, making it ideal for dry, damaged, and sensitive skin.

Basic Information and Chemical Properties

• Chemical Identification: The CAS Registry number for this substance is 1095751-96-4, and its English name is Xylitylglucoside. Other names include xylitol glucoside.
• Molecular Structure: The molecular formula is C₁₁H₂₂O₁₀, and the molecular weight is 314.29. It belongs to the glycoside class of compounds.
• Physical Properties: It usually appears as a white crystalline powder, readily soluble in water, with a boiling point of approximately 730.9±60.0 °C (predicted value) and a density of 1.66±0.1 g/cm³.
• Source and preparation: Primarily derived from natural plants, it can also be produced through fermentation or by reacting glucose and xylitol.

Moisturizing and Hydration Locking

It forms a moisturizing film on the skin surface, reducing moisture loss and promoting the synthesis of natural moisturizing factors (NMF), enhancing the skin's water retention capacity and achieving immediate and long-lasting moisturizing effects. Some tests show that the moisturizing effect can last for several days to several weeks.

Strengthening Skin Barrier Function

It increases the content of intercellular lipids (such as ceramides) in the stratum corneum, improving the impermeability of the stratum corneum, reducing external irritants, allergens, and moisture loss. This helps repair damaged barriers and improve skin problems such as flaking and roughness, and has a protective effect on sensitive skin and skin with impaired barrier function.

Optimizing Moisture Circulation

By increasing the expression of aquaporin-3, it promotes the flow of water inside and outside skin cells, enabling more efficient water circulation between the epidermis and dermis, maintaining skin moisture balance.

Antioxidant Effect

It can neutralize free radicals, reducing free radical damage to skin cells, helping to delay skin aging and reduce the formation of wrinkles and age spots.

Regulating Skin pH

Its pH value is similar to that of human skin, helping to regulate the skin's acid-base balance, reducing skin sensitivity to external stimuli, and soothing skin discomfort.

Improve scalp health.

Scalp care can repair damaged scalp stratum corneum, increase scalp ceramide content, reduce scalp dryness, itching, and dandruff, making hair smoother, shinier, and reducing frizz.

Cosmetics and Skincare Products

• Moisturizers: Effectively lock in skin moisture, increase the water content of the stratum corneum, and reduce transepidermal water loss (TEWL), keeping skin hydrated. Commonly used in creams, lotions, and masks.
• Skin Barrier Repair: Enhances skin barrier function, promotes the synthesis of lipids such as ceramides, and improves the skin's resistance to external stimuli. Suitable for sensitive and dry skin.
• Anti-aging Assistance: Promotes the synthesis of glycosaminoglycans (such as hyaluronic acid), helping to maintain skin elasticity and firmness, thus aiding in anti-aging effects.

Hair Care Products

• Hair Moisturizing and Repairing: Used in shampoos and conditioners, it repairs damaged hair cuticles, locks in moisture, reduces frizz, and increases shine and smoothness. Especially suitable for dry and damaged hair.

Personal Hygiene Products

• Cleansing and Conditioning Agents: Possessing good detergency and thickening properties, these can be used in facial cleansers and shower gels. They cleanse the skin and balance its moisture, reducing dryness after cleansing.

Food and Beverages (Limited Application)

• While not its primary use, it can be used as a natural sweetener or moisturizing ingredient in certain functional foods or beverages, utilizing its low-calorie and moisturizing properties to improve the taste and texture of the product.
