Keratin, Hydrolized Keratin - a flexible, insoluble protein with a high content of cysteine, sulfur and amino acids, the main ingredient of skin, hair and nails. Keratins are a family of fibrillar proteins possessing on of the strongest mechanical resistance similar to the Chitin. Keratin accounts for almost 90% of the hair composition. Therefore, keratin predetermines the mechanical resistance and structure of hair. Keratin fibrillae contains large amounts of disulfide bridges formed with the participation of the sulfur-containing amino acid cysteine, which gives additional resistance and resilience to keratin. Cysteine accounts for 14% of human hair. The hair treated with keratin increases its tensile strength 2,7 cn/Tex above the values inherent to normal hair. Keratin promotes cell keratinization, regenerates the damaged surface of the hair cuticle, stimulates hair growth, gives the skin elasticity and almost completely waterproof. There are two forms of protein: α-keratin found in mammalian cells, and β-keratin - in the cells of bird and reptile cages. In humans, keratin protein is composed of soft keratin of skin (epithelial citokeratine) and the hard keratin of hair. In Trichology and Cosmetology hydrolyzed keratin used for quick skin and hair regeneration, as well as to quicken the process of keratinization of surfaces cells. It has been noticed, that when shampoos and conditioners not containing Keratin are used, all types of hair have show a reduction in strength. The data obtained demonstrated that keratin-containing shampoos and balsams fit perfectly for professional and home hair care. Consequently, usage of keratin-containing products is indicated: after all hairdressing services (permanent waving, straightening, coloring and many other procedures with chemical and thermal exposure); for correction of negative environmental effects (sun, sea and chlorinated water, dust, smoke, etc.); in case of metabolic disorders in the body leading to an insufficient intake and uptake of amino acids, vitamins, and macro- and microelements essential for normal formation and growth of hair; in case of visually detected abnormalities of the hair structure such as split ends, fragility, excessive dryness; for prevention of hair structure abnormalities and hair loss.

Kaolin - white clay, consisting mainly of the mineral kaolinite, named in honor of the Chinese province of Kaolin, which it was first discovered. It is formed by the destruction of various rocks that contain feldspars and consists of very small particles, that determine its ability to remove toxic substances and heavy metals. Bleaching properties of the kaolin are widely used in the manufacturing of toothpastes and chewing gums. White clay helps to remove tartar, disinfects the mouth. The presence of the compounds of zinc, magnesium, potassium, calcium, aluminum and iron allows the use of kaolin for eczema, dermatitis, open wounds. In cosmetology used for masks and scrubs for deep skin cleansing. As part of such products kaolin has a soft peeling, disinfectant and bleaching action, absorbs sebum, removes waste products and toxins, nourishes the skin with trace elements, increases the flexibility of blood vessels and helps to strengthen the skin.
