Inulin is a polysaccharide of fructose, a prebiotic soluble dietary fiber, present in the roots of certain plants of the family Asteraceae such as chicory, artichokes, burdock ...

In cosmetics, it is the polysaccharides that are especially interesting for their thirst-quenching and softening properties on the skin. The polysaccharides have the power to retain water and form an aqueous film on the surface of the skin or hair, which will help maintain hydration and provide a very soft feel.

Inulin powder prevents dehydration and softens skin and hair. It also serves as a natural non-ionic hair conditioner. Inulin powder is used as an active ingredient in your preparations and is designed for all types of skin and hair.
