Skincare Benefits:
Hydrolysed wheat protein has water-binding properties, helping to retain moisture in the skin. This can contribute to improved hydration and a smoother complexion.
It may help in reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles due to its moisturising properties and potential to support the skin's elasticity.
Hydrolysed wheat protein contains amino acids, which are the building blocks of proteins. These amino acids may support collagen synthesis, promoting skin firmness and elasticity.
It can have soothing effects on the skin, making it beneficial for individuals with sensitive or irritated skin.
Haircare Benefits:
Hydrolysed wheat protein can penetrate the hair shaft, providing strength and structure to the hair. This can be particularly beneficial for damaged or chemically treated hair.
It may add volume and thickness to the hair strands, making the hair appear fuller and more voluminous.
Similar to its effect on the skin, hydrolysed wheat protein helps in retaining moisture in the hair, preventing dryness and frizz.
By coating the hair shaft, it can improve combability and overall manageability of the hair, reducing tangling and breakage.
For individuals with colour-treated hair, hydrolysed wheat protein can help protect the colour by forming a protective film around the hair shaft.
It's important to note that while hydrolysed wheat protein can offer these benefits, individual reactions may vary. Always perform a patch test before using any new skincare or haircare product, especially if you have known allergies or sensitivities to wheat or gluten.
