Eucerin products and their ingredients

Extensive research and passion for skin are the foundation of Eucerin’s high quality products. Naturally, Eucerin experts take great care on choosing ingredients for all products and limit the number. Nevertheless, in case of intolerance or allergies, it may be helpful to check for certain ingredients in our Ingredients Database.

Key Ingredient

Carnitine

Benefit function

L-Carnitine (also known as Carnitine) is an amino-acid derivative found in the skin and is produced from the amino acids lysine and methionine. It plays a key role in energy production within the cells. It activates cellular ß-oxidation (“fat burning”) and reduces intracellular lipid content.

Additionally, Carnitine regulates the production of sebum by promoting the uptake of fatty acids in the mitochondria, converting them into energy. Thus, the fatty acids can no longer be converted into sebum, and the amount of sebum is substantially reduced. Localized application of Carnitine on the skin helps to significantly reduce the amount of sebum.
