Mibelle Biochemistry has developed PinoPlex™, a new innovative and sustainable hair care ingredient. It is inspired by the concept of pine cone scales, which open and close depending on weather conditions.
Prevents Split Ends and Provides Strength & Resilience
As an upcycling product, the active is derived from pine cones (
Pinus sylvestris), which are collected by hand from exceptional and carefully selected French forests. To obtain the valuable ingredients, a gentle, green, microwave-assisted extraction process was implemented.
The protective cuticle layer of the hair is an indicator of healthy hair – when the scales are smooth, moisture is locked into the hair which, in turn, appears healthy, beautiful, and vital. However, if the scales are open and protruding, moisture is then lost and the hair looks dull and frizzy. This process mirrors the open and closed structure of pine cone scales, and thus serves as a bioinspired concept.
PinoPlex™ is a powerful hair shaft moisturizer that can combat dry and damaged hair. It not only penetrates the hair but also retains water by leveling out the hair cuticle, making the hair smoother and shinier.
This bioinspired ingredient prevents split ends and improves hair fiber integrity, making it more resistant to daily stress and breakage. It also supports keratinocyte differentiation in the hair matrix, making the hair grow healthier and stronger.
PinoPlex™ is an ideal ingredient for various hair care applications such as split-end menders, leave-in conditioning repair creams, hydrating overnight leave-in conditioners and much more.
