L-Arginine is an amino acid that occurs naturally in the skin. It is an excellent moisturizer (NMF), supports the skin's barrier function and is compatible with most cosmetic ingredients. Due to its alkaline pH, it is used instead of NaOH or baking soda to raise the pH (in a 10% solution) in formulations.

As a prominent skin care ingredient, L-Arginine has been established as a powerful antioxidant that can help repair visible damage. Moreover, its hydrating potential has been well-researched, which is further augmented through its contribution to proline and urea production, two substances integral for skin health.

Researchers are currently investigating the potential of Arginine-derived cosmetic surfactants being a more compatible alternative to existing materials.

Arginine has also been shown to reduce the effects of oxidative hair coloring or lightening - a must-have for all hair-care regimens!
