Usually, it needs to be lowered with an acid, such as \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/innometiko.shop\/products\/zitronensaeure-fein-gmo-frei\" title=\"Zitronensäure fein\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ecitric acid\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e, and in rarer cases, increased.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHowever, the pH value should always be buffered—that is, stabilized—to prevent it from changing over a longer period of time. To do this, one can use an alkali, which converts part of the acid into a salt (e.g., sodium citrate in the case of citric acid).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/innometiko.shop\/blogs\/blog\/naturkosmetik-wissenenswertes-ph-wert-einstellen\" title=\"pH-Wert einstellen\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eClick here\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e to learn more about adjusting the pH value!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAnother option is the amino acid arginine. Contrary to its name, it does not act as an acid, but as a base. It can be used to increase the pH value, while simultaneously stabilizing it. Therefore, it is advisable to always use, for example, some citric acid and arginine in a product. This allows the pH value to be adjusted and buffered. It is recommended to use at least approx. 10% of the citric acid amount in arginine.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBut arginine can do even more: It belongs not only to the basic amino acids but also to the \u003cstrong\u003ecationic\u003c\/strong\u003e ones. It therefore carries a positive charge in the molecule and can thus attach perfectly to the negatively charged \u003cstrong\u003esurface of the skin and hair\u003c\/strong\u003e and unfold its nourishing properties.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLike many amino acids, it has a \u003cstrong\u003ewater-binding\u003c\/strong\u003e effect and can be used as a moisturizing active ingredient. Due to its small molecular size, it also penetrates into deeper layers of the skin, where it can effectively retain moisture. When used as an active ingredient, it can also be dosed slightly higher. With a large amount of acid (e.g., in fruit acid products), it may well be necessary to dose it highly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFurthermore, it promotes skin cell proliferation and is involved in the synthesis of \u003cstrong\u003ecollagen and elastin\u003c\/strong\u003e. Therefore, it is also useful to use it in \u003cstrong\u003eregenerating or wound-healing\u003c\/strong\u003e products, as well as in products intended to \u003cstrong\u003estrengthen the skin barrier\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese properties make it interesting for more than just pH regulation.
