Artichoke Extract Powder

Description

Artichoke Leaf Extract is a plant-derived active obtained from the leaves of Cynara scolymus. It is rich in hydroxycinnamic acid derivatives, including caffeic acid and ferulic acid, which provide potent antioxidant activity.

This botanical extract is widely used in haircare formulations for its ability to protect and reinforce the hair fiber structure while supporting scalp health.

Mechanism of action in Haircare:

• Antioxidant Protection:
  Helps neutralize free radicals generated by environmental stressors such as UV radiation and pollution, thereby reducing oxidative damage to hair fibers.

• Cuticle Cohesion Support:
  Assists in maintaining the cohesion of hair cuticle scales, helping preserve the hair’s outer protective shield and reducing porosity.

• UV & Environmental Defense:
  Supports protection against UV-induced degradation of melanin and structural proteins within the hair shaft.

• Mineral Support for Scalp Health:
  Naturally occurring minerals (Copper, Iron, Potassium, Manganese, Phosphorus) contribute to improved scalp vitality and overall hair appearance.

• Scalp Conditioning:
  Vitamin C and phenolic compounds help soothe mild scalp irritation and support dandruff-prone scalp conditions.
