Silk Amino Acids, derived from hydrolyzed silk fibers, are a natural protein source commonly used as an additive in hair and skin care products. They are known for their small particle size, allowing for deeper penetration into hair and skin. This offers formulators the ability to create products with improved manageability, detangling, and shine for hair, and potentially enhance moisture retention in both hair and skin care formulations. Additionally, Silk Amino Acids are a biodegradable ingredient.
