Linoleic Acid

Linoleic Acid

Linoleic acid is an essential fatty acid that acts as a moisturizing ingredient. It can also help regulate sebum production, making it helpful for oily, congested, and acne-prone skin.

Linoleic acid's antioxidant makeup helps protect skin from free radical damage, which can cause slack skin, fine lines, and wrinkles.

Linoleic acid is an emollient, meaning it moisturizes skin by creating a protective barrier over it, locking in moisture and stopping TEWL. It's also anti-inflammatory and soothing.

INCI: Linoleic Acid
