DESCRIPTION: Aminosilk quat is a complex of amino acids derived from silk and a naturally-derived poly glucoside quaternary compound. It contains amino acids and saponins with a cationic backbone. It acts as a moisturizing and conditioning active. It offers improved body, shine, tensile strength and manageability in hair care. It’s especially effective due to its very low molecular weight – repairing damage caused by breakage from friction and dryness. It offers superior substantivity to both the skin and the hair. It helps draw moisture to the upper layers of the skin and the hair shaft, helping the hair remain strong, elastic and shiny.
In skincare, it promotes regeneration and supports normal cell function. It forms a light, breathable film, providing excellent protection against everyday environmental stressors.
It offers a silky slip to formulations. It reduces the irritation that comes with surfactants and provides a lubricating after-feel in rinse-off applications
