Additionally, it has high compatibility with coexisting ingredients, making it suitable for use with a wide range of materials, including vitamins, peptides, and natural extracts. Our ergothioneine achieves high purity through proprietary refining technology, minimizing coloring components, foreign substances, and odors to the utmost extent. It does not compromise the transparency or finish of products used on the skin and significantly contributes to formulation stability. Being in powder form, it is easy to handle and can be flexibly applied across various categories such as skincare, hair care, and body care.
