Hydrolyzed Wheat Protein - 100ML

Hydrolyzed Wheat Protein is a cosmetic grade liquid protein ingredient used in water-based hair and skin formulations to support a smoother, more conditioned feel. In hair care it is valued for its film-forming character, which can help improve the feel of body, shine, and manageability. In skincare it is commonly used in creams, lotions, serums, and wash products where a softer finish is wanted.

It is added to the aqueous phase, not to anhydrous formulas. Why we love it: We choose to stock Hydrolyzed Wheat Protein because it is a practical, easy-to-use active for makers who want to refine the feel of both haircare and skincare formulas.
