Elastin (Hydrolysed) (Hydrolyzed Elastin) is primarily used for surface hydration, skin elasticity appearance. The mechanism: Hydrolysed protein fragments attract moisture and form a film on skin surface.
The scientific name is Hydrolyzed Elastin. Hydrolysed protein fragments attract moisture and form a film on skin surface. This mechanism is consistent across properly formulated products, which means the real variable is concentration and delivery system.
Typical working concentration is 0.1–2%. Best suited to all skin types skin. Primary applications: surface hydration, skin elasticity appearance.
Works well with: Collagen, hyaluronic acid.
Doesn’t penetrate; peptides derived from elastin sequences may have deeper action.
