Hi Irma, the INCI for Aquaxyl is : Xylitylglucoside (and) Anhydroxylitol (and) Xylitol. AQUAXYL™ offers the 3D hydration hydraconcept for circulation of moisture throughout all skin layers and boosting of hyaluronic acid. The skin barrier is reinforced in 24 hours by limiting water loss. Results are softer smoother skin in 28 days with normal desquamation and smoothing of fine lines. Its mechanism of action identified by cosmetogenomics, controls water circulation and reserves.
“Anti-dehydration shield” action: Aquaxyl reinforces the synthesis of essential lipids and proteins involved in the organisation of the corneus layer. Also effective for hair moisturization and foaming formula sensory profile. COSMOS, ECOCERT, Natrue approved and China listed.
Therefore it is difficult to replace this potent hydrating product. In case you can no get it use any water soluble humectant such as : glycerin, sorbitol, or xylitol powder, sodium PCA or LMW Hyaluronic acid that does not gel. Although if you are use LMW Hyaluronic acid you must stick to max percentages of 0.2-0.3 %
Plan B if you don’t have any of the above simply omit it and adjust the total percentage of the formula. The product won’t be as effective but it will still be hydrating.
Hope this help
