Why Zinc is an Essential Mineral for Blemishes and Troubled Skin
Acne and blemished skin are common skin problems that not only cause physical discomfort but can also affect self-confidence. While there are several ways to support the skin, zinc remains a popular mineral due to its versatile properties.
In this article, you'll learn how zinc contributes to clear skin, the difference between dietary intake and supplementation, and how to incorporate this mineral into a routine for clear, calm skin.
What is zinc and why does your skin need it?
Zinc is an essential mineral that the body needs for many functions: it supports the immune system, helps with cell renewal and contributes to the normal functioning of the skin barrier. Zinc also plays a role in maintaining a clear skin, partly through its influence on sebum production and the natural recovery function of the skin.
Zinc and impure skin – how does it work?
An unsettled skin is often influenced by factors such as excessive sebum production, blocked pores, inflammation and hormonal fluctuations. Zinc supports various processes that play a role in this:
1. Supports sebum regulation
Zinc contributes to the maintenance of normal sebum production. Less excess sebum means less chance of blockages and impurities.
2. Nourishes and soothes the skin
Zinc is known for its skin-caring and soothing properties. It supports the skin's natural recovery process in case of redness or irritation.
3. Contributes to normal hormonal balance
Hormonal fluctuations are a common cause of blemishes. Vitamin B6 and zinc – both present in the B.me Clear Skin formula – help regulate hormonal activity.

Want to increase your zinc intake through food? Consider:
