Topical L-Carnitine To Reduce Sebum Production?

18 July 2012 - 10:41 PM

A recent 2012 study "Topically applied l-carnitine effectively reduces sebum secretion in human skin" showed that a formulation of 2% L-Carnitine applied to the skin significantly reduced sebum production within 2-3 weeks.

I've been thinking about giving this a try by adding L-Carnitine to my moisturizer.
