Physics Polyglutamic+ Intensive Hydration Serum

A competent hydration serum undermined by the complete absence of its marquee ingredient—polyglutamic acid is nowhere in the INCI list. Despite the product name prominently featuring 'Polyglutamic+,' the actual formula relies entirely on conventional humectants (glycerin 3.9–5.9%, sodium hyaluronate 0.1–0.35%, panthenol 1–1.5%) without any polyglutamic acid present. This is a critical formulation failure: polyglutamic acid requires 0.3–3% concentration to deliver its claimed superior water-binding capacity and plumping benefits[1]. The base formula is competent—glycerin and sodium hyaluronate are well-dosed and synergistic—but the product fundamentally misrepresents its active ingredient profile. The inclusion of tocopheryl acetate (a weak vitamin E derivative) and soluble collagen adds minimal efficacy. Without the hero ingredient, this is a generic hydration serum at a premium price point. If you're looking for skincare anti aging products, this is worth evaluating.
