L- Glycine

Glycine is an amino acid that is essential for health and can be found in a variety of food sources. Amino acids can effectively penetrate the skin due to their low molecular weight. Glycine can act as a buffering agent to alter and maintain the pH of a formulation and forms part of the skins own natural moisturising factor.

Glycine is also used in anti-ageing preparations due to its ability to increase collagen synthesis in the skin.

Amino acids can also function as anti-statics in hair care formulations due to their affinity for the surface of the hair.
