Role: EMOLLIENT/EMULSIFIER/TEXTURE

Family: Natural or hemisynthesized polymer

Comedogenic index: 0

Hydrolyzed pea protein is a natural emollient and hair-conditioning agent used in cosmetics. It is obtained by hydrolyzing proteins extracted from peas, a process involving the use of enzymes or water.

In addition to its action as an emollient, it also acts as a surfactant, capturing dirt and enabling it to be removed from the skin or hair.

Thanks to its plant-based origins, hydrolyzed pea protein is considered one of the most environmentally-friendly surfactants in the cosmetics industry.
