INCI Name: Sodium PCA
Function: Humectant, Moisturizer, Skin Conditioning Agent
Sodium PCA is a natural moisturizing factor derived from amino acids, commonly found in the skin.
It is a powerful humectant known for its ability to attract moisture from the environment into the skin, making it an excellent ingredient in skincare and haircare formulations. Sodium PCA helps to maintain the skin’s hydration balance, keeping it soft, smooth, and moisturized. It is gentle on the skin and works effectively to improve the overall appearance of dry or dehydrated skin, leaving it plump and refreshed.
Sodium PCA is water-soluble and easily incorporated into aqueous-based formulations.
It functions optimally in a slightly acidic to neutral pH range (around pH 4 to 7).
