    Product Description

    Zinc PCA (zinc pyrrolidone carboxylate) is a zinc salt that combines zinc and pyrrolidone carboxylic acid (PCA). It is a multifunctional ingredient that is widely used in skin and hair care products. Zinc PCA not only has antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties, but also regulates sebum secretion, making it suitable for oily and acne-prone skin.
    Discover the science-backed power of Aogebio® Zinc PCA, a multifunctional skincare ingredient that combines sebum regulation, antimicrobial action, and hydration balance for healthier, clearer skin. As a zinc salt of pyrrolidone carboxylic acid (PCA), our high-purity Zinc PCA is clinically proven to reduce excess oil, prevent acne breakouts, and strengthen the skin barrier—making it an essential active for acne treatments, mattifying serums, and sensitive skin formulations.
