The Ingredient Holding Your Serum Together

Texture is a formulation decision, and xanthan gum is one of the levers. Fermented from sugar, it thickens water-based formulas into gels and lotions with real body, keeps oils and water from separating on the shelf, and holds actives suspended evenly so each pump delivers the same dose as the last.

Look for it wherever consistency matters: C+ Correcting Complex, DEJ Daily Boosting Serum, Papaya Enzyme Cleanser, and the tinted Intellishade TruPhysical SPF 45.

Does xanthan gum do anything for skin?

Very little directly, and that is fine. Its value is indirect: a stable, evenly suspended formula means the actives reach your skin at the concentration the brand intended, batch after batch.

How to shop at ELLEMES

Judge these products on their actives and how they wear. Thickeners are a means, not the reason to buy.
