PLEASE READ DISCLAIMER   So, what on earth are Glucosides, giving their name to the NIOD Modulating Glucosides we will review today? Well, they are a pretty broad term describing organic substances in which an alcohol or phenol-group is bound to a sugar.     And no, knowing that didn’t help me understand what the Modulating Glucosides Serum is supposed to do for my skin either.…
