It can also improve the stability of emulsions.

What skin type is it best suited to?
Glycogen is a universal ingredient suitable for all skin types.
What does it work well with?
Glycogen works well with Vitamin C to help fight signs of ageing. It also works well with Saccharide Isomerate to provide long-lasting deep hydration, leaving the skin visibly smoother and healthier.
