Beauty Classroom: Let’s Learn About an Ingredient: Pearl
English Name: Pearl
👉🏻 Primarily sourced from mollusks such as pearl oysters or mussels.
👉🏻 When a foreign object like a grain of sand enters their body, it irritates the mantle; the animal then secretes nacre to layer over the foreign object, eventually forming a pearl.
👉🏻 The chemical composition of pearls is mainly calcium carbonate, containing a variety of amino acids and trace elements.
👉🏻 In Eastern beauty history, pearls have been documented for thousands of years, with mentions appearing in the "Compendium of Materia Medica" (Bencao Gangmu).
Benefits of Pearl for the Skin:
👉🏻 Whitening and Fading Blemishes
⭐️ Helps regulate melanin metabolism
⭐️ Improves dullness and pigmentation
⭐️ Lightens spots and evens out skin tone
👉🏻 Oil Control and Acne Relief
⭐️ Inhibits oil secretion, anti-inflammatory and antibacterial
⭐️ Promotes repair of damaged cells and accelerates wound healing
⭐️ Improves issues such as acne and oily skin
👉🏻 Hydrating and Nourishing
⭐️ Replenishes sufficient moisture to the deeper layers of the skin
⭐️ Repairs damaged skin barrier
⭐️ Forms a protective film on the skin surface to prevent moisture loss
👉🏻 Anti-Aging
⭐️ Rich in antioxidant components that clear free radicals
⭐️ Promotes skin collagen regeneration
⭐️ Enhances skin elasticity and reduces fine lines
When to use Pearl:
✨ Dull/Pigmented Skin: Inhibits melanin and improves pigmentation
✨ Oily/Acne-Prone Skin: Regulates oil secretion, clears pores, treats acne, and tightens pores
✨ Mature/Early-Aging Skin: Enhances skin elasticity and prevents skin aging
✨ Combination Skin: Oil control for the T-zone, hydration for the cheeks
Precautions when using Pearl:
👉🏻 Perform a skin patch test: Always conduct a patch test before use (apply a small amount to the inner arm or behind the ear and observe for 24 hours).
👉🏻 Sensitive individuals: A very small number of people may have allergic reactions to the natural calcium, specific trace elements, or residual mollusk proteins in pearl; please use caution when using products containing pearl ingredients.
👉🏻 Severe skin conditions: If the skin has open wounds, severe cystic acne, eczema, or contact dermatitis, you should treat the skin condition first and use it only after healing.
👉🏻 Avoid layering with high-concentration "acids": The calcium carbonate in pearl powder may react with high-concentration acids (such as salicylic acid) or Vitamin C, which may cause active ingredients to become ineffective or cause skin irritation. It is recommended to use them at different times (e.g., separate morning and evening use).
