About Zinc PCA

Zinc PCA is the zinc salt of pyrrolidone carboxylic acid.[1] In cosmetics, it is used to attract moisture to the formula and skin surface to help maintain hydration and to smooth and refine the skin surface.[3] In Europe, it may be used at up to 1% based on the zinc content of the finished product.[2]
