Pro-xylane

Pro-xylane (PX) is a cosmetic ingredient used for skin conditioning and is widely used in anti-aging product research. It is considered to be an optimal activator for the biosynthesis of glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) sulphate and can be used to prepare a novel bioactive c-glycoside compound, which is a “green” chemical. In addition, Pro-xylane has been shown to enhance the blue colour of anthocyanins (ACNs), with ACNs-PX showing a colour close to Oxford blue, a surface height of 2.13 ± 0.14 nm and a slight increase in stability.

Boswellin, also known as Pro-Xylane, is primarily used in the cosmetics and personal care industry. Its main applications include:

• Anti-aging formulations: Enhances skin firmness and elasticity by stimulating glycosaminoglycan (GAG) synthesis.

• Moisturizing products: Improves skin hydration and helps maintain skin barrier function.

• Skin-repair creams and serums: Supports skin regeneration and smooths fine lines and wrinkles.

• Brightening and revitalizing treatments: Promotes a healthier, more radiant complexion.
