Magnesium PCA
INCI Name: Magnesium PCA
Magnesium PCA is a cosmetic ingredient that combines magnesium with pyrrolidone carboxylic acid (PCA). It plays a role in skin hydration and revitalization since PCA is a natural moisturizing factor (NMF) found in the skin. This component helps retain moisture and supports the skin's natural protective barrier.
Magnesium, as an essential mineral, aids cellular energy production, which can contribute to a healthier skin appearance. Using Magnesium PCA may help reduce skin irritation and promote skin soothing.
