Amino Esters-1

Amino Esters-1 Description

Amino esters-1 is a rarely used cosmetics ingredient, used primarily as a skin conditioner.

In general, alpha amino esters are considered precursors to what are called non-canonical amino acids, meaning they are not found naturally in the genetic code of living organisms. They are lab synthesized and used to develop small-molecule therapeutics and biologics, most often in pharmaceutical settings.

On the rare occasion this ingredient is used in leave-on cosmetics, the typical use level is 2.5%.
