AMP-ISOSTEAROYL HYDROLYZED COLLAGEN

Description

AMP-Isostearoyl Hydrolyzed Collagen is an innovative skincare ingredient that combines the benefits of collagen peptides with enhanced penetration capabilities. This modified protein is derived from hydrolyzed collagen, which has been further processed to improve its efficacy and absorption into the skin.

The ingredient's structure consists of collagen peptides bonded to isostearic acid and AMP (Adenosine Monophosphate). This unique formulation allows for better skin penetration and increased stability compared to traditional hydrolyzed collagen. AMP-Isostearoyl Hydrolyzed Collagen primarily functions as a moisturizing and skin-conditioning agent.

Key benefits include improved skin hydration, enhanced elasticity, and potential reduction in the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. The ingredient works by attracting and retaining moisture in the skin, while also supporting the skin's natural collagen production processes. Its low molecular weight enables it to penetrate deeper layers of the epidermis, potentially providing more substantial and long-lasting effects.

In formulations, AMP-Isostearoyl Hydrolyzed Collagen is compatible with a wide range of other skincare ingredients and can be incorporated into various product types, including serums, creams, and lotions. It is particularly beneficial in anti-aging and hydrating skincare products.
