Derma ClearVB3™ is a next-generation Cu(I) complex designed to bring together the complementary benefits of cuprous copper and vitamin B3 in a single multifunctional ingredient. Through ligand engineering, vitamin B3 becomes an integral part of the Cu(I) complex rather than simply being blended into the formulation. Designed for personal care, cosmetic, and deodorant applications, Derma ClearVB3™ offers a differentiated approach to supporting skin wellness, maintaining a balanced skin environment, managing malodor, and protecting formulation integrity—all through one versatile ingredient platform.
Core Benefits
Skin Protection & Barrier Support
Helps support the skin’s natural protective functions and maintain a healthy barrier against everyday environmental and biological stressors. By supporting skin integrity and its natural moisture-retaining properties, Derma ClearVB3™ is designed to promote smoother, healthier-looking, and more resilient skin.
Skin Vitality & Elasticity
Supports biological processes and extracellular matrix components associated with healthy skin renewal, recovery, firmness, and elasticity. The complementary properties of copper and vitamin B3 provide a compelling foundation for formulations designed to maintain a revitalized and resilient skin appearance.
Balance & Comfort
Copper helps maintain a balanced pH environment that supports normal skin function, comfort, and overall wellness. This is particularly relevant for products intended for sensitive or frequently stressed skin, where maintaining skin pH balance is an important part of long-term skin health.
Malodor Management
Provides a multifaceted approach to malodor management by helping control odor-causing microorganisms and interfering with the formation and persistence of unwanted odors. This makes Derma ClearVB3™ particularly attractive for whole-body deodorants, underarm products, foot care, intimate care, and other applications where long-lasting freshness is desired.
Formulation Preservation
Provides antimicrobial functionality that can help protect liquid formulations against microbial contamination and support product integrity throughout use. This multifunctional benefit creates the potential to complement conventional preservation systems while simultaneously delivering consumer-relevant skin and deodorancy benefits.
