Other names: Glycolift, Glycofilm

Harm score: 2 (Derivatives of natural substances)

Biosaccharide Gum-4, also known by the trade names Glycolift and Glycofilm, is an advanced ingredient widely used in the cosmetics and pharmaceutical industries. It is a biotechnologically enhanced polysaccharide that is produced through fermentation processes from the fungus Aureobasidium pullulans. This polysaccharide is included in many skin and hair care products due to its remarkable properties and benefits for human health.

Biosaccharide Gum-4 is particularly valued for its ability to provide the skin with long-term hydration, increase its elasticity and resistance to external influences such as environmental pollution. It is therefore used in products such as creams, serums, face masks, shampoos, conditioners, decorative cosmetics and other products where it acts as a moisturizing and protective ingredient. In addition to its moisturizing and anti-aging effects, it can also be mentioned that Biosaccharide Gum-4 increases the cohesion of cells on the skin surface, thus helping to form a protective film against aggressive external influences. This advantage makes this polysaccharide an attractive ingredient in high quality skin care products.
