Amino Acid Complex refers to a blend of various amino acids, which are the building blocks of proteins. These complexes typically include essential and non-essential amino acids such as glycine, proline, lysine, arginine, and serine, among others.  Amino acid complexes help support skin hydration, repair, and barrier function.
