Hydrolyzed Corn Starch

Hydrolyzed corn starch is a modified carbohydrate derived from corn. It functions primarily as a film-forming agent, binder, and viscosity-increasing agent in cosmetic formulations. It can also offer some moisturizing benefits by helping to retain water on the skin's surface.
