Sodium

Sodium is an essential mineral and electrolyte crucial for many bodily functions, including fluid balance, nerve impulses, and muscle contraction. In cosmetics, it often appears as part of various salts (e.g., sodium chloride, sodium hyaluronate) where it contributes to different functions like thickening, pH adjustment, or hydration. It is not typically used as a standalone ingredient in its elemental form.
