FK PROTECT plus™

1 of 1 products in this brand
FK Protect Plus™ is extracted from wool using a mild process which results in a high MW soluble keratin protein. This natural form of protein can arrange itself into stable, cohesive films on the hair taking advantage of three dimensional interactions of amino acids within the native protein chains. FK Protect Plus™ is a strong antioxidant potential (222 micromol TEAC/100ml) arising from its unique active cystine component. The antioxidant activity enables it to scavenge free radicals at the point of formation. This protects against the force multiplying damage of UV combined with pollution.
