(Alfa) Keratin

Technical Datasheet | Supplied by Alfa Chemistry

Keratin by Alfa Chemistry acts as a protective agent. It is produced by special cells called keratinocytes, which are found in the outer layer of the skin and in the hair follicles. It helps in repairing damaged hair by strengthening fibers, reducing frizz, preventing hair breakage, smoothing cuticle and adding shine to dull hair and enhancing its texture.

It provides hardness, durability and helps to form a barrier against harmful substances and pathogens.
It helps in improving skin elasticity by promoting collagen production, reducing wrinkles & fine lines, and moisturizing dry and rough skin.
Keratin helps in strengthening weak and brittle nails and promote its growth and manageability.
It is used in shampoo, conditioners, hair serum, moisturizers, creams and lotions, nail polishes, nail strengtheners and cuticle creams.
