Science
Mechanism of Action
This oil-soluble vitamin B6 derivative operates by bolstering the skin's intrinsic moisturizing capabilities. It actively promotes the synthesis of filaggrin and loricrin, crucial amino acid precursors that contribute to the Natural Moisturizing Factor (NMF). This action strengthens the skin barrier and minimizes transepidermal water loss. Additionally, it provides sebum control through 5α-reductase inhibition, exhibits antioxidant properties, and supports skin repair and soothing processes.
