Soybean Protein Hydrolyzed
Soy Protein is a cosmetic grade, enzymatically hydrolyzed protein. This high quality vegetable sourced protein provides moisture retentive, protective, and sealing films. It adds shine, body, and manageability to hair care products.
Soy Protein increases the ability of the hair and skin to bind moisture and specifically improves the tensile strength of hair. It mitigates damage due to bleaching, perming, and hot combing. Soy Protein is substantive to hair and skin. It helps to minimize roughness and chapping of skin caused by dry weather.
Benefits
Soy is a tremendous source of Isoflavones. It appears to protect the skin against hormone-related aging, such as in menopause.
Hydrolyzed Soy Protein helps bring back a youthful radiance in skin care.
It is a powerful skin lightening agent that acts by reducing skin damage due to UV light or inflammatory agents.
Helps to stimulate more collagen production. Collagen is a protein that gives skin support and keeps it firm and wrinkle-free. New studies show that soy peptides increase the synthesis of glycosaminoglycans, chains of polysaccharides linked to a central protein, in the dermis of the skin. An example of a GAG is hyaluronic acid.
They also have inflammation reducing properties and help diminish oxidative damage.
