Lemon Shine
INCI: Hydroxypropyltrimonium Lemon Protein
Lemon Shine...Function
-
Naturally and botanically derived lemon protein that has been hydrolyzed to decrease the pH.
-
A cationic ingredient that is used as a conditioner, anti-static, and moisturiser that also increases shine.
-
A film former that strengthens hair and reduces wet combing forces.
-
Increases the shine benefits it has on the hair shaft by causing the cuticle to lay flat which then reflects more light from the hair strands.
Lemon...a source of protein
-
Recognised as an excellent source of vitamin C, lemons are also a source of protein.
-
These proteins have elastic and binding properties that make them useful for a variety of applications such as film forming, hydrating, emulsifying, and strengthening.
-
The film formed by Lemon Shine Protein may also seal in moisture to prevent the loss of moisture that is often caused by styling tools such as hair dryers and curling and straightening irons.
