Hydrolyzed Hazelnut Protein
Science & Benefits
Hydrolyzed Hazelnut Protein is a vegetable-derived protein rich in essential amino acids, particularly Arginine and Aspartic Acid. These amino acids are vital components of the skin's Natural Moisturizing Factor (NMF), helping to maintain a healthy pH and hydration balance. In a formula, this ingredient acts as a conditioning humectant that repairs the skin barrier and improves elasticity. It is completely non-comedogenic and non-irritating. For users dealing with 'peeling' skin from retinoids, hazelnut protein provides the necessary nitrogen and moisture to accelerate epidermal repair without clogging pores or triggering new breakouts.
