Potassium Azeloyl Diglycinate (PAD) is an advanced, water-soluble cosmetic ingredient synthesized by complexing a naturally occurring dicarboxylic acid with the amino acid glycine. It delivers powerful skin-brightening and sebum-balancing properties while being significantly gentler on the skin. This innovative derivative demonstrates excellent chemical stability and superior solubility, making it incredibly versatile for various cosmetic formulations. Supplied as a high-purity white powder, it is fully soluble in water and insoluble in oil.
