DESCRIPTION

What It Does: Provides antioxidant protection from reactive oxygen species, reduces inflammatory cytokine production in skin, and conditions skin through the plant's phytochemical complex.

Why It's Used: Natural origin narrative, traditional use heritage, and multi-functional phytochemical profile supporting concurrent skin care claims from one ingredient.

How It Works: Polyphenols, terpenoids, and alkaloids scavenge ros via h• donation, inhibit nf-kb or cox-2 inflammatory pathways, and interact with skin surface proteins for conditioning.

DESCRIPTION

What It Does: Strengthens hair and improves elasticity with glutamine-rich wheat protein peptides.

Why It's Used: Leading plant-based protein conditioner providing excellent hair strengthening and elasticity improvement from wheat gluten hydrolysate.

How It Works: High glutamine content (35-40% of amino acids) provides strong hydrogen bonding to hair proteins. glutamine-proline sequences form stable polyproline ii helices that strengthen hair protein tertiary structure. film formation on hair surface provides combing ease and volume.

Typically Found In: Strengthening shampoos,protein treatments,volume conditioners

SKIN COMPATIBILITY

Irritancy Rating: 1/5 – very low

Comedogenicity Rating: 0/5 – non-comedogenic

Sensitivity Concerns: Well-tolerated by most skin types.

Safe for Sensitive Skin: Gluten sensitivity: hydrolyzed wheat protein may cause reactions in celiac disease individuals if applied to broken skin. generally safe for topical use on intact skin.

SAFETY & COMPATIBILITY

Safety Profile: Good safety profile at recommended concentrations. ewg score: 1–2.

Works Well With: Standard skincare actives

Avoid Combining With: No known significant incompatibilities

SCIENTIFIC NOTE

Wheat protein's high glutamine content provides hydrogen bonding affinity for hair cuticle and cortex proteins that is quantitatively superior to most other plant proteins. glutamine's amide side chain (-conh2) forms stronger hydrogen bonds with keratin than the hydroxyl-based bonds of serine or threonine-rich proteins like silk.
