Maltodextrin – 200g
Multi-Use Powder for Cosmetic & Craft Formulations
Maltodextrin is a versatile carbohydrate derived from starch. It plays a crucial role in the beauty, skincare, and craft industries. This fine, white powder has excellent absorbent properties, making it ideal for various formulations.
