What Is Potassium Azeloyl Diglycinate?
Potassium Azeloyl Diglycinate is a water-soluble derivative of azelaic acid that offers similar benefits with improved tolerability. By linking azelaic acid to glycine amino acids, this compound delivers brightening and clarifying benefits more gently.
This derivative is particularly suitable for those who cannot tolerate pure azelaic acid, offering its tyrosinase-inhibiting and antibacterial properties in a more user-friendly format.
