Cuivridone® is the copper salt of L-pyrrolidone carboxylic acid (L-PCA). It is a physiological compound of the epidermis, obtained by the cyclization of L-glutamic acid. It displays astringent properties, limiting the proliferation of bacteria that can cause imbalances in oily skin. It also imparts a characteristic blue lagoon color.
