BeriCos® PAD – Potassium Azeloyl Diglycinate: Innovative Multifunctional Cosmetic Active

Introduction

Azelaic acid has long been recognised as a versatile skincare active renowned for brightening, anti-acne and anti-inflammatory benefits. However, its poor water solubility, strict pH limitations and relatively weak skin tolerance create substantial hurdles for cosmetic formulation. To overcome these challenges, we proudly present BeriCos® PAD (Potassium Azeloyl Diglycinate), an advanced water-soluble azelaic acid derivative engineered for modern skincare formulations.

BeriCos® PAD retains the core skincare efficacy of azelaic acid while significantly upgrading solubility, compatibility and gentleness. By chemically conjugating azelaic acid with glycine, this innovative molecule delivers multi-target effects: sebum regulation, skin brightening, anti-inflammation and soothing care for sensitive, blemish-prone and uneven-toned skin. Suitable for toners, serums, gels, cleansers, moisturisers and post-procedure skincare, BeriCos® PAD caters to clean beauty, sensitive skin and targeted corrective skincare trends worldwide.

Core Highlights: Independently Developed & Manufactured

BeriCos® PAD (Potassium Azeloyl Diglycinate) is an independently researched, developed and fully in-house produced cosmetic active ingredient. Our R&D team optimised the synthetic route, purification process and quality control system from scratch, breaking reliance on imported raw material sources.

Independent manufacturing delivers stable, traceable supply chains, flexible customisation capabilities and rigorous batch consistency. Every production step is controlled within our facility, enabling real-time quality monitoring, fast technical support and custom specifications to meet diverse formulator demands.

Outstanding High Purity & Superior Stability

Purity is the foundation of reliable active performance. BeriCos® PAD (Potassium Azeloyl Diglycinate) is manufactured via advanced purification technology to achieve ultra-high purity, minimising inorganic salt residues, by-products and impurities that may trigger irritation or compromise formulation stability.

Compared with conventional (Potassium Azeloyl Diglycinate) on the market, BeriCos® PAD demonstrates remarkable chemical stability:

• Compatible with broad pH ranges (pH 4.0–8.5), adaptable to most aqueous cosmetic systems

• Resists degradation under heat, light and long-term storage; maintains consistent activity through accelerated stability testing

• No discolouration or turbidity when incorporated into clear formulas such as transparent serums and toners

• Excellent thermal tolerance, suitable for both cold mixing and hot processing techniques

High purity paired with exceptional stability greatly reduces formulation risks, extends finished product shelf life and guarantees consistent efficacy throughout the product lifecycle.

Product Advantages of BeriCos® PAD 

1. Excellent Water Solubility & Formulation Friendliness

Fully water-soluble without organic solubilisers. Easily incorporated into aqueous systems, supporting transparent, lightweight formulations. Compatible with most common cosmetic actives including niacinamide, panthenol, hyaluronic acid and plant extracts, enabling flexible formula design.

2. Multifunctional Skin Benefits

✅ Skin Brightening & Even Tone

Inhibits tyrosinase activity to suppress melanin synthesis, fades post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH) and acne marks, improves dullness and delivers a uniform, luminous complexion.

✅ Sebum Normalisation & Anti-Blemish Action

Regulates sebum production, unclogs pores and inhibits Cutibacterium acnes. Effectively controls oiliness, reduces breakouts and prevents recurring blemishes for oily and combination skin.

✅ Anti-Inflammatory & Soothing for Redness-Prone Skin

Reduces pro-inflammatory mediators to relieve skin irritation, calm flushing and redness. Gentle enough for sensitive skin and skin susceptible to rosacea, offering a mild alternative to high-concentration azelaic acid.

✅ Enhanced Skin Tolerability

The glycine moiety brings moisturising and conditioning properties. Far less irritating than free azelaic acid; enables effective formulation without harsh irritation or stinging sensation.

3. Odorless Formula-Friendly Characteristic

BeriCos® PAD (Potassium Azeloyl Diglycinate) features a pure odorless property with no peculiar chemical or raw material smell, which is a prominent advantage over many conventional azelaic acid derivatives. Most traditional azelaic acid-based ingredients carry inherent pungent odors that require additional essence masking, increasing formulation complexity and potentially affecting product fragrance compatibility and user experience. As an odorless active ingredient, BeriCos® PAD (Potassium Azeloyl Diglycinate) eliminates the need for extra deodorizing formulas or fragrance masking. It perfectly adapts to fragrance-free skincare, clean beauty and light-scent product positioning, preserving the pure texture and original scent design of finished cosmetics, while greatly simplifying the formulation process and reducing auxiliary material costs.

4. Safe & Clean Beauty Compliant

Free from fragrance, alcohol, parabens and heavy metals. Non-photosensitising, vegan-friendly and compliant with major global cosmetic regulations. Ideal for clean beauty, sensitive skincare and mild corrective products.

5. Reliable, Consistent Supply

Supported by our in-house production line, BeriCos® PAD (Potassium Azeloyl Diglycinate) ensures stable lead times, consistent batch quality and full technical documentation including specification sheets, safety data sheets and test reports. Professional formulation guidance is available to partners.
