Pea.Protein is a hydrolyzed protein derived from Pisum Sativum, with 100% plant origin. It is characterized by the presence of fractions of hydrolyzed proteins having different molecular weight, which are able to work in synergy to improve skin tone and elasticity, by performing a filler and anti-aging effect. The great affinity between keratin and Pea.Protein allows the ingredient to penetrate into the hair surface, restoring the hair and increasing its resistance.

Technical Details & Test Data

Mechanism of Action

Thanks to the presence of hydrolyzate protein fractions having two different molecular weights, Pea.Protein actions are multiple: 

Middle-low MW penetrates more in the stratum corneum, and thanks to its hygroscopic nature, it is able to donate a high hydration and tone to the skin. 

The high MW fraction has instead a protective activity, thanks to its film-forming properties able to effectively reduce TEWL.
