Monosaccharides lactate condensate, a reaction product of lactic acid (2-hydroxypropanoic acid) with various monosaccharides and monsaccharide derivatives such as glucose, fructose, glucosamine, ribose and deoxyribose, is used in cosmetic formulations. The reaction product acts as an antistatic agent (reduces static charges by neutralizing the electrical charge on the surface of e.g. hair) and as a skin care product.
