Natto Gum: What does it do in your toner?
Natto gum is one of those ingredients whose purpose you can hardly tell from the name. In cosmetics it is used as a film former: it can leave a fine, coherent layer on the skin. This means that it has a different role than, for example, a peeling ingredient. How this layer feels also depends on what natto gum is combined with in the recipe.
In the Klairs Supple Preparation Unscented Toner you will find Natto Gum together with Betaine, Panthenol and Hyaluronic Acid. The toner is a fragrance-free option for an extra step of hydration after washing. Pour some into the palms of your hands and spread it gently over your face before applying your other treatment. If you’re looking for a product containing Natto Gum, look for exactly this name: The term “fermented” alone doesn’t tell you what ingredient it contains.
