The amino acid component analysis shows us that it has reasonable amino acid distribution and high protein content. IvyLanc™ P is a multifunctional cosmetics ingredient as it absorbs and penetrates into the damaged hair perfectly where it repairs and smoothens hair surface. It has skin and hair moisturizing ability in addition to it is anti-oxidation and surface activity property. It is highly recommended to be used both as a conditioning and foam assisting agent in shampoos for hair care, also as a moisturizing and anti-aging ingredient for skin care.

Hair Repairing Properties
Bleached Asian hair were treated with IvyLanc™ P at 50° C for 15 min, washed with water afterwards and dried. It was repeated 5 times. Control was treated with water only. The hair sample was observed by fluorescence microscope. Figure 1. Fluorescence microscope images of bleached Asian hair treated with IvyLanc™ P and water.
The fluorescent label indicates the damage on hair sites. Healthier the hair, lower the fluorescence intensity will be.
Foaming Ability of IVYLANC™ P
Foaming ability of IvyLanc™ P is determined by the Chinese Standards GB/T 7462.
Compared with blank group, IvyLanc ™ P, added as 0,5% to shampoo, increases the volume and shampoo foam stability. The observed foam is more delicate.
Figure 3. Comparison of cream with IvyLanc™ P.
Compared to the blank cream, the cream with 1% IvyLanc™ P is observed as more delicate and shiny.
Anti-Oxidant Effect Compared to VC
Under same test condition, similar anti-oxidation curve comparing with VC can be obtained, that shows the ideal anti-oxidation of IvyLanc™ P.
