Mechanism of Action
Sodium Cocoyl Hydrolyzed Amaranth Protein delivers conditioning benefits through its colloidal peptides and carbohydrates, which originate from Amaranth grain. It contains nine essential amino acids crucial for skin health, supporting processes like wound healing, antioxidant defense, lipid metabolism, hydration balance, and immune response, ultimately contributing to skin revitalization. As a mild cleansing agent, it effectively boosts foam and maintains performance even in the presence of sebum.
