This innovative active delivers triple-action efficacy: brightening, anti-acne, and soothing, making it a must-have for modern skincare formulations.

Unmatched Brightening & Anti-Pigmentation Power

BeriCos® PAD Potassium Azeloyl Diglycinate competitively inhibits tyrosinase, the key enzyme driving melanin synthesis (IC₅₀=12.4μM, stronger than arbutin). It also downregulates MITF protein and blocks melanosome transfer, effectively fading dark spots, post-acne marks, and uneven tone for a radiant, porcelain-like complexion.

Oil Control & Anti-Acne Excellence

Ideal for oily and acne-prone skin, it suppresses Cutibacterium acnes (MIC=32μg/mL) to reduce inflammation and breakouts. By inhibiting 5α-reductase, it regulates sebum production, minimizes pores, and prevents blackheads—all without over-drying the skin.

Gentle Soothing & Hydration

Thanks to its glycine moiety, BeriCos® PAD Potassium Azeloyl Diglycinate provides instant hydration and strengthens the skin barrier. It calms redness and irritation, making it perfect for sensitive skin—a stark contrast to harsh azelaic acid. Stable across pH 4–8.5, it’s easy to formulate into toners, serums, creams, and masks with an addition rate of 1.0–3.5% for leave-on products.
