WActive®Pionin


Propionibacterium acnes (P. acnes) thrive on fatty acids within our pores. When these pores become clogged, P. acnes rapidly proliferate, breaking down saturated fatty acids and releasing large amounts of free fatty acids. These free fatty acids penetrate the skin, triggering a cutaneous stress response that leads to acne, redness, and swelling. WActive® Pionin effectively inhibits the growth of P. acnes by disrupting the bacterial cell membrane and inducing intracellular degradation—ultimately helping to reduce acne and inflammation.


INCI Name: Quaternium-73

Function: Anti-acne

Recommended use level: 0.001~0.005%


Product Literature

Mechanism

The primary mechanism of action of Quaternium-73 involves disrupting the bacterial cell membranes, inhibiting the growth of Propionibacterium acnes, facilitating bacterial cell degradation and shedding, promoting the maturation process of acne, stimulating secretion flow, and consequently expediting the disappearance of acne.
