Lauroyl Lysine is a fine white powder, a perfect organic powder for makeup, hair, and skincare products. Its hydrophobic characteristic improves makeup water resistance and improves the flow and spread of the oil/powder mixture.

Thanks to its antioxidant action, Lauroyl Lysine protects the skin from reactive species, oxidative stress, and premature aging.

Incorporated in hair care applications, Lauroyl Lysine also reduces electrostatic charges on hair or skin. It lowers the frictional coefficients, minimizing combing friction and leaving a smooth and silky sensation on the hair or skin.

Derived from natural raw materials, Lauroyl Lysine is a safe ingredient in decorative cosmetics like eye shadows, lipsticks, blushers, and foundations. It also can be found in many creams, lotions, and body care products.
