Product Overview
Hydrolyzed Keratin is a core shampoo and body wash ingredient used by formulators worldwide for hair repair protein applications. This cosmetic grade hair active material is supplied in bulk by VeraVita Biotech for B2B brands, contract manufacturers and private-label producers who need reliable quality, full documentation and consistent supply from China. Whether you are building a sulphate-free shampoo, a conditioning body wash, an anti-dandruff treatment or a mild baby wash, Hydrolyzed Keratin is the functional raw material that helps the formula perform.
Key Features
- Hydrolysed keratin protein that penetrates and repairs damaged hair
- Improves elasticity, strength and smoothness in shampoo and conditioner
- Available in a range of molecular weights (e.g., 1,000–3,000 Da)
- Pale beige free-flowing powder with mild characteristic odour
- Widely used in hair-care, lash-care and nail-care formulations
How It Works
- Protein repair: hydrolysed keratin peptides fill gaps in the cuticle and cortex of damaged hair, temporarily restoring strength.
- Film formation: forms a thin protective film on the hair surface, reducing friction and improving combability.
- Moisture retention: the peptide structure binds water, helping hair retain hydration and reducing frizz.
Typical Applications
- Shampoo: repair shampoo, strengthening shampoo, colour-care shampoo
- Conditioner: hair conditioner, hair mask, leave-in treatment
- Body wash: luxury body wash with skin-conditioning claims
- Nail / lash care: nail strengtheners, lash serums
- OEM / ODM: keratin-based hair-repair lines
