Chitosan glycolate, a chitosan compound is used in cosmetic preparations. The substance acts as an antioxidant (inhibits reactions promoted by oxygen and thus prevents oxidation and rancidity of ingredients). Chitosan glycolate forms a film on skin, hair or nails (film former) when applied and has a skin-caring effect.
