- Efficacy
- As we mature, the body’s production of collagen slows and this is believed to contribute to an “older” appearance.
- Oral and topical collagen formulations are thought to help alleviate these age-related skin changes.
- Collaplex 1.0 shows an outstanding high water ab- sorption capacity.
- Over time, the powerful native and natural collagen helps to fill in lines and wrinkles, leaving your skin smooth an plump.
- In addition this outer film reduces the irritating and negative influen- ces of environment on the skin.
- A certain level of stratum corneum hydration is essential for skin smoothness and elasticity;
- Moisturizing
- Film forming
- Water-retaining
- Application Information
- Collaplex 1.0 PHE is especially suitable and easy to formulate in caring facial cream and skin care formula tions.
- Incorporation
- While all native collagen solutions are temperature sensitive and denature irreversible at temperatures between 38 - 45°C, we necessarily recommend to incorporate Collaplex 1.0 PHE lower than 30°C in the water phase of your formulation.
- Collaplex 1.0 PHE existing on acidic pH as a result of added citric buffer.
- For using it in after Shaves in combination with Alcohol and water, pH has to be positioned lower than four, otherwise Collaplex 1.0 PHE will precipitate as fibrils.
- While using Collaplex 1.0 in water based ampules or fluids you have to add 2 % Sodium Chloride to slide the isoelectric point to the right direction and to avoid any precipitation after a long term.
