HMA Keratin is a liposome complex that encapsulates and releases keratin hydrolyzate into the hair over time. Realized over time, keratin amino acids and small peptides moisturize, nourish, and repair hair, making it manageable and less frizzy.
HMA Silky is a botanical complex that provides breakage resistance for hair. Due to unique coacervation technology, it acts as a hair micro-adhesive.
Hydrogenated Castor Oil/Sebacic Acid Copolymer is a polymer derived from natural raw materials and designed to seal down hair cuticles that were damaged by coloring, bleaching, or any other process that requires lifting of the cuticle.
Excellent wetting capabilities of Hydrogenated polydecene are ideal for suncare and make-up applications and complete innocuousness - ideal for babies and sensitive skins.
Hydrogenated Polyisobutene is a modified synthetic polymer. It is a clear, water-white, viscous liquid without odor. Its viscosity, flash point, and specific gravity depend on the average molecular weight (polymerization level), which ranges from 350 to 1300 Daltons.
Hydrolyzed Barley Protein is a protein hydrolyzate obtained from food-grade Golden Barley (Hordeum jubatum). It is carefully hydrolyzed without the addition of enzymes to preserve its unique characteristics.
Hydrolyzed Chestnut Extract is an active ingredient developed for hair care obtained from organically grown Castanea sativa fruits (chestnut).
It can improve both hair manageability and skin smoothness. In addition, hydrolyzed collagen has unique water-binding and texturizing properties, which enable it to bind to the water held by the hair shaft.
Vegetable proteins may be extracted, solubilized, purified, and supplied as light-colored, good clarity, low ash solutions.
Studies showed that elastin fragments activate skin fibroblast and boos extracellular matrix components production, including collagen and elastin.
Many manufacturers hydrolyze (divide long chains) mucopolysaccharides derived from natural sources like shrimp shells. Those hydrolyzed glycosaminoglycans are perfect-matching and ready-to-use building blocks for skins' own dermatan and hyaluronan production.
Hydrolyzed/oligomeric hyaluronic acid can penetrate into the deepest skin layers and store the moisture there in a targeted manner. The skin image is upholstered.
