Zinc L-Pyrrolidone Carboxylic Acid Zn-PCA

( 221 )

Zinc PCA Powder (≥98% purity) is a high‑performance, sebum‑regulating active ingredient supplied by Actives Beautics lab, a premier B2B supplier of specialty cosmetic raw materials. As a trusted cosmetic ingredient supplier, we manufacture this zinc PCA for formulators developing acne control products, mattifying moisturizers, and sebum‑regulating serums that require both oil control and hydration – without the drying side effects typical of zinc salts.


Unlike conventional zinc gluconate or zinc sulfate, our zinc PCA powder combines the antimicrobial and anti‑inflammatory power of zinc with the Natural Moisturizing Factor (NMF) intelligence of PCA. This non‑drying acne treatment ingredient maintains skin moisture while reducing sebum excretion rate by approximately 30% (in vitro). It is the preferred sebum regulating ingredient for oily skin formulations, blemish spot treatments, and men's grooming lotions.
