How the HUMECTANT function is used in CosIng

The HUMECTANT function is assigned by the European Commission in the CosIng ingredient inventory. This page currently lists 2051 ingredients carrying that function label in the dataset, which helps you move from a functional claim to the exact ingredients that use it.

Retaining and/or preserving the moisture in a product during use.

Function assignments come from official EU CosIng data. They describe intended cosmetic use, but they do not replace regulatory review of each linked ingredient and any annex records tied to it.
