As a NMF(Natural Moisturizing Factor) in the skin, L-PCA combines with zinc to produce PCA Zinc. SQ-PCA Zn can effectively remove excess seborrhea (a hormone-related sebaceous mechanism), also can inhibit 5α-reductase and sebum increase. So that it kills Bacillus acnes to prevent irritation of the scalp which is caused by skin inflammation. So SQ-PCA Zn is a high-efficient sebum control agent, especially suitable for oily and acne-prone skin.
