Information

Aspartic acid is a non-essential amino acid that the body can synthesize on its own. In skincare and cosmetics, it serves multiple purposes, primarily known for its role in building collagen and elastin, hydrating the skin, and acting as a buffering agent to maintain the product's pH balance.

Where does it come from?

Aspartic acid is found in various plants, particularly in sugar cane and sugar beets as well as seed sprouts, legumes, peanuts, almonds, walnuts, and flaxseeds.

What are the benefits?

What are the benefits?

  • Hydration: Provides light hydrating properties, helping to maintain healthy-looking skin.
  • Soothing: Helps to soothe the skin and strengthen its natural defenses against environmental damage.
  • Antioxidant: Contributes to the skin's defense system, making it less likely to show signs of aging from environmental damage.
  • Collagen and Elastin Support: Plays a building block role in the formation of collagen and elastin, although topical application hasn't been shown to impact collagen or elastin directly.
  • Buffering: Helps establish and maintain the pH balance of cosmetic products.

How is it used in our products?

Aspartic acid is used, for example, in F74 Regeneration Intense Face Cream from OLIVEDA.  Its inclusion hydrates and soothes the skin, strengthens its defenses, and supports the structure of collagen and elastin.
