HYDROLYZED PEARL

Description

Hydrolyzed pearl is a luxurious and bioactive ingredient derived from finely ground pearls that have undergone hydrolysis, breaking down complex proteins into smaller, more easily absorbed peptides and amino acids. This process enhances the ingredient's ability to penetrate the skin or hair shaft, delivering its beneficial properties more effectively.

Rich in minerals such as calcium, magnesium, and trace elements, hydrolyzed pearl offers multiple benefits for both skin and hair care formulations. In skincare, it promotes collagen synthesis, enhancing skin elasticity and reducing the appearance of fine lines. Its gentle exfoliating properties help to improve skin texture and impart a luminous glow. Additionally, hydrolyzed pearl exhibits antioxidant properties, protecting the skin from free radical damage.

In haircare, this ingredient strengthens the hair shaft, improves shine, and helps to prevent breakage. It can also enhance the overall health of the scalp, potentially promoting hair growth. Hydrolyzed pearl is particularly valued for its ability to improve the hair's moisture retention, leading to softer, more manageable strands.

Suitable for various formulations including serums, creams, shampoos, and conditioners, hydrolyzed pearl is generally well-tolerated and can be used in products for all skin and hair types.
