PHYTOSPHERIX is a natural polysaccharide extracted from non-GMO sweet corn kernels. It has a unique ability to hydrate and nourish the skin. PHYTOSPHERIX forms a protective film on the skin that helps retain moisture levels. As a humectant, it attracts water molecules from the air and deep layers of the skin to the surface. This keeps the skin soft, supple and youthful-looking. PHYTOSPHERIX also has emollient properties that smoothen the skin texture. Its lightweight molecules penetrate deep into the skin without leaving a heavy or greasy feel. Regular application of formulas containing PHYTOSPHERIX improves the skin's hydration, texture and appearance.
