Glycine

Glycine  an amino acid that is primarily used in anti-aging skincare products because of its ability to improve moisture retention, increase collagen production, and promote skin repair and regeneration. Glycine helps prevent tissue breakdown and is a key amino acid in collagen (collagen is composed of about one-third glycine). Data support the findings for glycine playing an important role in epidermal differentiation and epidermal barrier formation.
