What's actually doing the work
Zinc
Zinc PCA / Zinc Oxide / Sebum Regulator
Mineral
Topical zinc PCA regulates sebum via 5-alpha reductase inhibition, kills C. acnes, reduces inflammation, and accelerates wound healing. Zinc oxide in SPF provides broad-spectrum UV protection. Orally, zinc deficiency is linked to acne severity — supplementation at 25–45mg/day shows clinical efficacy comparable to some antibiotics in studies.
