About Galacturonic Acid

Galacturonic Acid is a compound containing acidic groups.[1] In cosmetics, it is used to buffer formulations so their acidity does not change rapidly, bind metal ions to reduce their effects on color, scent, and formulation stability, and attract water to the formulation and skin surface to help maintain moisturization.[2]
