Amino Acid

What Exactly?

Amino Acids are fundamental building blocks of proteins that play a vital role in skin health. In topical formulations, they help strengthen the skin’s barrier, enhance hydration, and support collagen synthesis. By mimicking the skin’s Natural Moisturizing Factors (NMF), amino acids attract and retain moisture, improving elasticity and resilience. This makes them essential for maintaining a youthful, plump complexion, especially in dry or sensitive skin types.

Amino Acid complexes are often combined with Hyaluronic Acid, Ceramides, and Peptides to provide comprehensive skin nourishment. Their soothing properties also help calm irritation and inflammation, making them suitable for reactive skin. Regular use improves skin texture, reduces transepidermal water loss (TEWL), and boosts the skin's ability to repair itself. Amino Acids offer a gentle yet effective solution for maintaining skin vitality and preventing premature aging signs. Additionally, this ingredient supports the skin's natural barrier.
