Konjac Mannan gel powder
Natural thickener and moisturizer
© Eugene/AdobeStockKonjac Mannan gel powder comes from the konjac root (also devil's tongue, bot. Amorphophallus konjac) - known in China as »Ju Ruo« and in Japan as »Konyaku«. The polysaccharides act primarily as thickeners, but at the same time moisturize the skin.
As a natural, film-forming thickener, Konjac Mannan gel powder can be processed with other natural thickeners to form a non-sticky care gel.
ECOCERT and COSMOS certified.
