AMPD-ISOSTEAROYL HYDROLYZED COLLAGEN

Description

AMPD-Isostearoyl Hydrolyzed Collagen is an innovative skincare ingredient that combines the benefits of hydrolyzed collagen with isostearic acid, enhanced by AMPD (2-Amino-2-Methyl-1,3-Propanediol). This multifunctional compound serves as an effective emollient and skin conditioning agent, offering superior moisturizing properties and improved skin texture.

The hydrolyzed collagen component consists of smaller peptide fragments derived from larger collagen molecules, allowing for better skin penetration and absorption. These peptides help support the skin's natural collagen production, potentially reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. The isostearoyl group, derived from isostearic acid, enhances the ingredient's ability to spread evenly on the skin and provides a smooth, non-greasy feel.

AMPD acts as a pH adjuster and stabilizer, ensuring optimal performance of the ingredient in various formulations. This combination results in a product that not only hydrates the skin but also helps improve its elasticity and overall appearance. AMPD-Isostearoyl Hydrolyzed Collagen is particularly beneficial for mature or dry skin types, offering both immediate and long-term benefits when used regularly in skincare routines.
