Stories from Nature
Zinc PCA is an exceptional biomimetic molecule, naturally present in the skin as a hydrating factor, known for its sebum-regulating, purifying, and sanitizing properties, formed by the combination of the mineral zinc and pyrrolidone carboxylic acid (PCA). The latter is a fundamental component of the Natural Moisturizing Factor (NMF), the natural moisturizing factor already present in our epidermis.
This technological synergy ensures superior bioavailability, allowing the active ingredient to act gently while respecting the physiology of the skin tissues.
Skin Benefits
The use of this active ingredient ensures optimal sebum balance, making it particularly effective for managing blemish-prone and acne-prone skin. Through its sanitizing properties, it gives the face a matte and smooth appearance, preserving the purity of the pores and the balance of the skin’s microbiome.
The result is a visibly improved complexion: regenerated, radiant skin characterized by a silky softness combined with deep hydration that lasts all day long.
Benefits Scalp
Sebum-regulating and purifying action
Zinc PCA is an exceptional biomimetic molecule, naturally compatible with skin tissues. It combines the properties of zinc with those of L-PCA acid, a key component of the natural moisturizing factor (NMF). This active ingredient promotes cutting-edge purifying and sebum-regulating action, serving as a cornerstone for the well-being of Scalp and the strength of the hair, while maintaining the physiological balance of the skin.
Support for Hair Growth
By promoting a more balanced and impurity-free environment, Zinc PCA creates the ideal conditions for healthy hair growth, supporting the activity of hair follicles.
Balanced Hydration
The PCA (pyrrolidone carboxylic acid) component helps retain moisture, improving scalp hydration without leaving a greasy residue, and contributing to the well-being of the hair shaft.
Zinc PCA is an active ingredient that purifies, rebalances, and hydrates, making it ideal for soothing, sebum-regulating, and rebalancing treatments, especially for oily hair, Scalp a sensitive scalp, or one prone to flaking.
