Keratin conditioning polymer matrix: LorealRecent Research Landscape

Phase separation in complex botanical mixtures leads to ingredient precipitation and reduced shelf life. This specific ternary system stabilizes plant-derived bioactive compounds within a water-soluble alcohol and oil matrix to ensure formulation homogeneity.

What technical problems is Loreal addressing in Keratin conditioning polymer matrix?

Keratin fiber surface degradation

(16)evidences

Environmental and chemical stressors cause structural damage and loss of protective lipids on hair and skin surfaces. Mitigating this degradation restores tactile properties and prevents further fiber or tissue breakdown.

Oxidative degradation of lipids

(6)evidences

Structural damage and lipid loss on hair or skin surfaces lead to brittleness and poor tactile properties. Addressing this degradation restores protective barriers and improves material longevity.
