ZINC

Sebo-regulating and smoothing agent, recognized for its antiseptic properties. Its penetration into the skin (bioavailability) is increased when associated with other molecules such as Pyrrolidone Carboxylic Acid (PCA) or with certain chelated forms such as Zinc Gluconate. Its ability to reduce sebum production and its anti-microbial properties make it suitable for oily skin.

What is Zinc gluconate? 

Recognized in ancestral medicine to enhance wound healing, zinc is an essential oligo-element for humans and has long been recognized for its anti-aging, anti-inflammatory, antibacterial and healing properties.

What are its origins? 

Zinc gluconate is the zinc salt of gluconic acid, an organic compound that is found naturally. As a vegan ingredient, it is derived from vegetable and mineral origin and is much better absorbed by the skin than other forms of zinc. Thanks to its superior sebo-regulating properties, it is effective for acne prone skin.
