Insufficient Data CAS - / HAIR CONDITIONING, SKIN CONDITIONING, SKIN PROTECTING, VISCOSITY CONTROLLING

This novel compound blends zinc's established dermal benefits with eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), an omega-3 fatty acid. It is designed to deliver synergistic anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, and sebum-regulating effects for comprehensive skin support.

Summary

Anti-inflammatory Antibacterial Sebum-regulating Antioxidant Skin protectant Astringent

Science

Mechanism of Action

Zinc ions are known to facilitate re-epithelialization, modulate inflammation, and inhibit bacterial growth, alongside antioxidant properties. The eicosapentaenoate component, derived from EPA, contributes potent anti-inflammatory action, amplifying the overall dermal benefits.
