Naturally strong – for skin & hair

Cosactive Wheat Protein is a hydrolysed wheat protein in powder form that has been specifically developed for demanding formulations in hair and skin care.

Thanks to its fine molecular structure, this microprotein penetrates deep into the hair fibre, where it unfolds its repairing, strengthening and protective effects. Its anti-hair breakage properties make it an ideal active ingredient for nourishing and structure-improving hair care concepts – including leave-in and styling products.

Thanks to its film-forming properties, Cosactive Wheat Protein creates a protective protein layer that makes the hair supple, supports volume and at the same time protects it from environmental influences. In addition to its conditioning benefits for the hair, it also has skin-revitalising, regenerating and stimulating properties. The sensory improvement and pleasant smooth skin feel make it an ideal choice for modern skin care formulations.

Dermatologically very well tolerated and manufactured from natural raw materials, Cosactive Wheat Protein is ideal for nature-based cosmetic concepts and for products where the irritation factor of the formulation needs to be reduced.
