This essential trace element plays a central role in skin care, mainly due to its antioxidant and wound-healing properties. In this article, we will explore the multiple benefits of manganese in skin care, its physical-chemical properties, and how it can improve skin health.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Physicochemical properties of manganese<\/h3>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Manganese used in skin care products, particularly in the form of manganese gluconate (chemically known as Bis(D-gluconato-O1,O2)manganese), has several important physical and chemical properties. It usually comes in the form of a slightly pink-colored powder that is soluble in cold water but insoluble in solvents such as acetone. The pH of a 5% aqueous solution is between 5 and 7, which makes it particularly well tolerated for skin care.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Manganese Gluconate has a molecular weight of 445.22 g\/mol and a purity of 98.0-102.0% on a dry basis, ensuring its high quality and consistency in formulations. These specific physicochemical data support the formulation of effective and safe skin care products that make the most of manganese in skin care.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Antioxidant and skin-protective properties of manganese in skin care<\/h3>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">One of the most outstanding benefits of manganese in skin care is its strong antioxidative capacity. Manganese acts as a cofactor for the enzyme superoxide dismutase, one of the most important antioxidants in the body, which protects the skin from the harmful effects of reactive oxygen species and free radicals. These free radicals are often responsible for premature skin aging and cell damage. Using manganese in skin care products slows down oxidation, helping to maintain healthy and youthful-looking skin.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Promotes wound healing and collagen synthesis<\/h3>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Manganese also plays an important role in wound healing and skin regeneration. It is essential for activating enzymes involved in the formation of collagen, a vital protein that gives skin structure and elasticity. By promoting collagen synthesis, manganese in skin care helps to strengthen the integrity of the skin barrier and improve skin elasticity. This is especially important for wound healing and reducing scars and other skin irregularities.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Fighting inflammation and acne<\/h3>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Another important benefit of manganese in face care is its anti-inflammatory effect. Manganese can help alleviate inflammatory skin conditions such as acne and eczema. Through its anti-inflammatory properties, it helps to reduce redness, swelling and the associated discomfort. It is therefore an ideal ingredient for skin care products for sensitive or problematic skin.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Manganese in modern skin care<\/h3>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Incorporating manganese into skin care offers formulators the opportunity to develop highly effective products that not only protect and repair, but also promote the skin&#8217;s natural beauty and health. Whether in serums, creams or face masks, manganese is a versatile active ingredient that enriches the skin care routine and protects the skin from daily challenges.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Below are some of the claims for food supplements that have been validated by EFSA. They can also be used for body care products:<\/h3>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&#8211; Manganese contributes to normal energy metabolism.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&#8211; Manganese contributes to the maintenance of normal bones.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&#8211; Manganese contributes to the normal formation of connective tissue.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&#8211; Manganese contributes to the protection of cells from oxidative stress.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We like to work with these manganese-containing active ingredients:<\/h3>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\n<table id=\"tablepress-413\" class=\"tablepress tablepress-id-413\">\n<thead>\n<tr class=\"row-1\">\n\t<th class=\"column-1\"><strong>Name<\/strong><\/th><th class=\"column-2\"><strong>Supplier<\/strong><\/th><th class=\"column-3\"><strong>INCI Name<\/strong><\/th><th class=\"column-4\"><strong>Remarks<\/strong><\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n<tbody class=\"row-striping row-hover\">\n<tr class=\"row-2\">\n\t<td class=\"column-1\">Biopeptide Mn (Manganese)<\/td><td class=\"column-2\">MacroCare Tech Co., Ltd.<\/td><td class=\"column-3\">Saccharomyces\/Manganese Ferment<\/td><td class=\"column-4\"><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr class=\"row-3\">\n\t<td class=\"column-1\">Gelest Manganese Violet SS<\/td><td class=\"column-2\">Gelest, Incorporated<\/td><td class=\"column-3\">Manganese Violet , Stearyl Triethoxysilane , Methicone<\/td><td class=\"column-4\"><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr class=\"row-4\">\n\t<td class=\"column-1\">SpecKare  D-EUK-134 (Ethylbisiminomethylguaiacol Manganese Chloride)<\/td><td class=\"column-2\">Spec-Chem Industry Inc<\/td><td class=\"column-3\">Ethylbisiminomethylguaiacol Manganese Chloride<\/td><td class=\"column-4\"><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr class=\"row-5\">\n\t<td class=\"column-1\">Majestic Plum MCM-MV4<\/td><td class=\"column-2\">Sandream Specialties<\/td><td class=\"column-3\">Mica , Manganese Violet<\/td><td class=\"column-4\"><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr class=\"row-6\">\n\t<td class=\"column-1\">BeriCos  EUK 134<\/td><td class=\"column-2\">Beri Pharma Co., Ltd.<\/td><td class=\"column-3\">Ethylbisiminomethylguaiacol Manganese Chloride<\/td><td class=\"column-4\"><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr class=\"row-7\">\n\t<td class=\"column-1\">Pelavie  Violet Intense ISO 16128<\/td><td class=\"column-2\">The Innovation Company\u00ae<\/td><td class=\"column-3\">Bentonite , Manganese Violet<\/td><td class=\"column-4\"><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr class=\"row-8\">\n\t<td class=\"column-1\">Creasperse\u00ae Violet<\/td><td class=\"column-2\">The Innovation Company\u00ae<\/td><td class=\"column-3\">Hydrogenated Polydecene , Manganese Violet , Polyhydroxystearic Acid<\/td><td class=\"column-4\"><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr class=\"row-9\">\n\t<td class=\"column-1\">EUK-134<\/td><td class=\"column-2\">Lucas Meyer Cosmetics - by Clariant<\/td><td class=\"column-3\">Ethylbisiminomethylguaiacol Manganese Chloride<\/td><td class=\"column-4\"><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr class=\"row-10\">\n\t<td class=\"column-1\">AC-EUK-134<\/td><td class=\"column-2\">SOHO ANECO Chemicals Co., Limited<\/td><td class=\"column-3\">Ethylbisiminomethylguaiacol Manganese Chloride<\/td><td class=\"column-4\"><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr class=\"row-11\">\n\t<td class=\"column-1\">Bichroma Violet \/ MBC-V<\/td><td class=\"column-2\">Sandream Specialties<\/td><td class=\"column-3\">Bismuth Oxychloride , Mica , Manganese Violet , Magnesium Stearate<\/td><td class=\"column-4\"><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr class=\"row-12\">\n\t<td class=\"column-1\">PHYSIOGENYL\u00ae Powder<\/td><td class=\"column-2\">Solabia Group<\/td><td class=\"column-3\">Zinc PCA , Sodium PCA , Manganese PCA , Magnesium PCA<\/td><td class=\"column-4\"><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr class=\"row-13\">\n\t<td class=\"column-1\">Acti-Hair Complex<\/td><td class=\"column-2\">Laboratorios Argenol<\/td><td class=\"column-3\">Aqua , Zinc Citrate , Silver Citrate , Copper Citrate , Magnesium Citrate , Manganese Citrate<\/td><td class=\"column-4\"><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr class=\"row-14\">\n\t<td class=\"column-1\">PHYSIOGENYL<\/td><td class=\"column-2\">Solabia Group<\/td><td class=\"column-3\">Sodium PCA , Magnesium PCA , Zinc PCA , Manganese PCA<\/td><td class=\"column-4\"><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr class=\"row-15\">\n\t<td class=\"column-1\">AMETISTA PW<\/td><td class=\"column-2\">AQiA Qu\u00edmica Inovativa<\/td><td class=\"column-3\">Amethyst Powder<\/td><td class=\"column-4\"><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr class=\"row-16\">\n\t<td class=\"column-1\">Mangalidone<\/td><td class=\"column-2\">Solabia Group<\/td><td class=\"column-3\">Manganese PCA<\/td><td class=\"column-4\"><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Summary of manganese in skin care<\/h3>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In summary, the use of manganese in cosmetics \u00a0is becoming increasingly important due to its extensive benefits for skin health.
