Technical Dossier | PuriPharm Co. Ltd. —— A Breakthrough 3-in-1 Targeted Solution: Sebum Control • Barrier Repair • Microbiome Balance

1. Product Overview

Traditional Salicylic Acid (SA) is highly efficacious in anti-acne and sebum control treatments. However, its free-acid form is notoriously associated with adverse effects, including severe irritation, flaking, and disruption of the skin barrier. To address this persistent industry challenge, PuriPharm Co. Ltd. has engineered PuriActives® SupraSalix (Supramolecular Salicylic Acid), specifically designed for modern sensitive skin and compromised complexions.

Powered by cutting-edge supramolecular self-assembly technology, PuriActives® SupraSalix utilizes a core of Salicylic Acid and Zinc Amino Acid. It innovatively integrates the biomimetic repair network of Xyloglucan and the prebiotic engine of α-Glucan Oligosaccharide.

This active ingredient shatters the traditional paradigm that “anti-acne equals barrier damage.” By achieving a 4D synergistic effect—sustained-release desensitization, comedolytic sebum control, biomimetic repair, and microbiome balance—it stands as a next-generation, ultra-mild anti-acne active formulated for sensitive skin, acne vulgaris, and seborrheic dermatitis.

2. Core Components & Mechanism of Action

The exceptional efficacy of PuriActives® SupraSalix originates from its meticulously designed matrix of four core components:

2.1 The Core Anti-Acne Engine: Salicylic Acid & Zinc Amino Acid

A supramolecular network cleverly conjugates Salicylic Acid with Zinc Amino Acid (primarily Zinc Glycinate) to achieve “reduced toxicity, enhanced efficacy” alongside kinetic sustained release.

Salicylic Acid: A lipophilic BHA that penetrates deep into hair follicles to dissolve keratin plugs and sebum, exerting potent comedolytic action. Simultaneously, it inhibits COX enzyme activity to block the production of pro-inflammatory mediators like prostaglandins.
Zinc Ion: An essential trace element. It inhibits 5α-reductase activity, significantly reducing sebum hypersecretion at the source. It also disrupts pathogenic biofilms for broad-spectrum antimicrobial action while accelerating wound healing and tissue remodeling.
Amino Acid (e.g., Glycine): The smallest amino acid. It not only acts as a carrier to enhance Zinc’s skin penetration but is also a critical component of the Natural Moisturizing Factor (NMF) and collagen, effectively soothing localized dryness caused by acid peeling.

2.2 The Invisible Biomimetic Barrier: Xyloglucan

A natural polysaccharide extracted from Tamarind seeds, widely recognized in pharmaceutical applications for treating eczema, dermatitis, and psoriasis.

“Second Skin” Effect: Exhibits outstanding film-forming properties, creating a breathable, invisible biomimetic shield on the skin surface to defend against external aggressors (e.g., PM2.5, allergens).
Deep Hydration & Repair: Significantly reduces Transepidermal Water Loss (TEWL), providing a moist healing microenvironment for a compromised stratum corneum. It synergizes with amino acids to accelerate barrier repair and diminish erythema (redness) and acne marks.

2.3 The Microbiome Modulator: α-Glucan Oligosaccharide

A highly active, plant-derived prebiotic.

Targeted Feeding: Selectively promotes the proliferation of beneficial skin flora (e.g., Staphylococcus epidermidis) while remaining indigestible to pathogens (e.g., Cutibacterium acnes, Malassezia).
Competitive Inhibition: By robustly cultivating beneficial bacteria to occupy the ecological niche, it competitively inhibits the microorganisms responsible for acne and seborrheic dermatitis, cutting off the root cause of recurrent breakouts from an ecological standpoint.

3. 4D Synergy Matrix

PuriActives® SupraSalix is not a simple physical blend. Through PuriPharm’s supramolecular technology, it establishes a 1+1+1>3 synergistic network:

1D Clear & Control: SA pore unclogging + Zinc’s active sebaceous inhibition. A dual-action approach to drastically improve oily skin and congested pores.
2D Targeted Anti-inflammatory: Zinc (inhibiting the upstream NF-kB pathway) combined with SA (inhibiting the downstream COX pathway). Delivers rapid erythema reduction and soothes inflamed papules.
3D Biomimetic Repair: Xyloglucan’s physical film-forming + Amino acid’s biochemical hydration. Perfectly neutralizes the harsh peeling effects of acids, enabling simultaneous “Clear & Repair.”
4D Microbiome Balance: α-Glucan Oligosaccharide reconstructs the microbial barrier, complementing the antimicrobial properties of Zn and SA. It systematically improves acne-prone and reactive skin profiles, preventing future relapses.

4. Core Advantages vs. Benchmark

5. Applications & Formulation Guidelines

PuriActives® SupraSalix demonstrates exceptional compatibility and solubility, making it highly versatile for various cosmetic formats including toners, serums, emulsions, gels, and wash-off products.

Primary Application Scenarios:

Professional Acne/Comedone Care: Anti-acne serums, spot treatment gels, chemical peel solutions (highly recommended for sensitive skin peeling).
Sebum & Pore Management: Pore-refining toners, mattifying/balancing emulsions, deep-cleansing mud masks.

NanoActive DMC

Posted on 04/30/202604/30/2026 by L, Y

Advanced Delivery System by PuriPharm Co. Ltd.

Liposomal Dimethylmethoxy Chromanol. The ultimate dual-scavenger shield against Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS) and Reactive Nitrogen Species (RNS), engineered for maximum bioavailability.

1. Redefining Antioxidant Protection

Dimethylmethoxy Chromanol is widely recognized as one of the most potent synthetic analogs of γ-tocopherol. Unlike traditional antioxidants that only target Oxygen free radicals, DMC is a unique dual-scavenger, effectively neutralizing both ROS and RNS, preventing lipid peroxidation and protein damage.

However, incorporating DMC into cosmetic formulations presents challenges due to its solubility and stability issues. PuriPharm’s NanoActive technology solves this by encapsulating DMC within nanometric liposomal vesicles. This structural mimicry of the stratum corneum ensures superior stability, profound epidermal penetration, and sustained release of the active molecule.

Key Advantages:

Dual Scavenging: Neutralizes both ROS and RNS, offering 360° cellular protection.
Liposomal Delivery: Nano-scale vesicles ensure deep penetration and prolonged efficacy.
Photo-aging Defense: Prevents UV-induced DNA damage and premature skin aging.
Formulation Friendly: Water-soluble liposomes easily integrate into aqueous phases.

2. The Science Behind the Shield

A targeted approach to cellular defense and delivery.

① ROS & RNS Quenching

Environmental stressors (pollution, UV) trigger ROS (like Superoxide) and RNS (like Peroxynitrite). DMC acts as an electron donor, rapidly stabilizing these radicals before they can initiate cascading lipid peroxidation in cell membranes.

② Phospholipid Bilayer Integration

PuriPharm encapsulates DMC in a flexible, biocompatible phospholipid bilayer. This liposome protects the fragile DMC molecule from premature oxidation within the cosmetic formula, dramatically increasing shelf-life.

③ Targeted Release

Due to their nanometric size (< 100nm) and biomimetic nature, the liposomes fuse with the stratum corneum, releasing DMC directly into the deeper epidermal layers where cellular protection is most critical.

NanoActive Sulfur

Posted on 04/18/202604/18/2026 by L, Y

Introduction

Sulfur is a yellow nonmetal widely distributed throughout the earth and has long been used as an effective treatment for various skin disorders. Its activity depends on the interaction between sulfur particles and keratinocytes: the smaller the particles, the larger the contact area and the better the efficacy. Bio-derived sulfur formed by the bacterial oxidation of sulfides into elemental sulfur shows better spreadability on the skin and higher activity.

NanoActive Sulfur, developed through a nano-delivery system, effectively regulates sebum secretion and helps treat acne and dandruff, while also providing strong antibacterial and anti-inflammatory activity.

Sebum Regulation

Excessive sebum secretion accumulates in follicles, enlarges pores, causes follicular blockage, and may even trigger inflammation.

NanoActive Sulfur effectively removes excess surface oil and helps soften the epidermis. It can also dissolve keratin and relieve skin imbalance caused by overactive oil secretion. In addition, it helps improve acne, pimples, and seborrheic dermatitis associated with overactive sebaceous glands.

Keratolytic Effect

Cystine is a major component of the stratum corneum. At low concentrations, sulfur promotes normal keratinization through its keratoplastic activity. At high concentrations, the same reaction produces a keratolytic effect because hydrogen sulfide disrupts keratin, and sufficient accumulation can dissolve the stratum corneum.

Therefore, NanoActive Sulfur is recommended for cosmetic formulations designed to regulate sebum secretion.

Antibacterial Action

The antibacterial action of sulfur depends on its conversion into pentathionic acid (H₂S₅O₆), a compound toxic to fungi. Hydrogen sulfide may also contribute to this activity. Through the action of skin bacteria and keratin-forming cells, sulfur can be converted into pentathionic acid. In addition, sulfur’s keratolytic activity may help separate fungi from the stratum corneum.

Therefore, NanoActive Sulfur is recommended for cosmetic formulations with purifying and preservative functions.

Pentathionic Acid Activity

Anti-inflammatory Action

Glutathione (GSH) is the most important cellular antioxidant. It exists in the reduced thiol form (GSH) and the oxidized disulfide form (GSSG), and undergoes thiol-disulfide exchange catalyzed by thiol transferases. Severe oxidative stress depletes intracellular GSH.

NanoActive Sulfur can promote GSH synthesis while reducing pro-inflammatory cytokines such as IL-1, IL-6, and TNF-α, delivering a strong anti-inflammatory effect.

Inflammatory Factor Reduction

The protein expression levels of TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-6 were measured by ELISA.

Compared with the control group, NanoActive Sulfur reduced the expression of TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-6 in a dose-dependent manner.
