HYDROLYZED CASEIN.

Valuable CAS 65072-00-6 / ANTISTATIC, HAIR CONDITIONING, SKIN CONDITIONING

Hydrolyzed Casein is a potent milk-derived protein hydrolysate, meticulously broken down into smaller peptides and amino acids. This process enhances its ability to deeply condition the skin and hair, fostering cellular restructuring and maintaining optimal hydration levels.

Science

Mechanism of Action

This ingredient operates by delivering fragmented peptides and amino acids to the skin, crucial for cellular restructuring and fortifying hydration. Its amphiphilic composition enables effective cleansing by binding to impurities. Research suggests potential benefits include mitigating facial pigmentation through a reduction in skin accumulation of Advanced Glycation End Products (AGEs), alongside providing moisturizing, soothing, anti-irritation, and anti-aging properties. The hydrolysis process inherently reduces its allergenic potential compared to intact proteins.
