INCI name
Hydrolyzed Sweet Almond Protein
Hydrolyzed Sweet Almond Protein is an enzymatic or chemically hydrolyzed protein extracted from sweet almond seeds. Its aqueous solution is a clear amber-yellow liquid with a slight odor.
A molecular network of polysaccharides and peptides from sweet almonds, Hydrolyzed Sweet Almond Protein is used for its appeasing and isolating properties. Incorporated in skin care products (detergent, cream, gel), it acts as a protective and moisturizing agent.
In hair care products, Hydrolyzed Sweet Almond Protein exhibits conditioning and restructuring effects. In cleansing products, it reduces the skin irritation of traditional surfactants and improves skin tolerability.
Hydrolyzed Sweet Almond Protein is particularly recommended in after-sun or after-shave creams, and more generally in any skin care product where anti-irritation properties are looked for. It is a safe ingredient, a non-irritant for skin and eyes, and has a low sensitization profile (hypoallergic).Synonyms
