Dextran, not to be confused with Dextrin, is a term given to a group of polysaccharides that are composed of multiple glucose molecules. Dextran can be naturally synthesized by a variety of bacteria species, as well as synthetically by a process of sucrose fermentation. In skincare, Dextran derivatives, such as Dextran sulfate, can promote better moisture-retention for improved skin hydration. Additionally, Dextran may provide soothing properties that are effective for alleviating dry, problematic skin. 1
