Phytokeratine 25 ml

Phytokeratine plant based keratin complex for strengthening and structuring systems

Phytokeratine is a functional plant derived protein complex developed for professional hair care formulations. The ingredient is based on hydrolyzed vegetable proteins adapted for cosmetic use. Its format ensures storage stability, precise dosing and suitability for scalable industrial production.

Phytokeratine integrates into aqueous systems, shampoos, conditioners, masks and leave in treatments, supporting homogeneous texture and formulation stability. The ingredient is widely applied in professional ranges and private label developments focused on structured hair appearance.

Properties and hair appearance outcome

In finished products Phytokeratine contributes to a smoother hair surface. Hair appears more structured, refined and visually denser. Formulations distribute evenly along the fiber without heaviness.

The ingredient forms a light film that visually aligns the hair surface and supports flexibility. Products remain homogeneous and stable during storage without phase separation.

Application across industries

Phytokeratine is used in shampoos, conditioners, masks, hair creams, fluids and serums. It is suitable for professional product lines, private label development and industrial manufacturing.

The ingredient is compatible with cationic conditioning agents, emulsifiers, oils, panthenol and botanical extracts. It can be incorporated into the water phase or added during the cooling stage of emulsions to maintain functional integrity.

Recipe for hair cream conditioner with Phytokeratine

Purified water 58 ml
Phytokeratine 9 ml
Sweet almond oil 12 ml
Emulsifier 8 g
Glycerin 5 ml
Panthenol 6 ml
Preservative 2 ml

To prepare the conditioner the water phase is created by blending purified water with glycerin until uniform. In a separate vessel sweet almond oil and emulsifier are heated until fully melted. The oil phase is gradually blended into the water phase under mixing to form a stable emulsion. After cooling Phytokeratine and panthenol are incorporated and mixed evenly. Preservative is added at the final stage and mixing continues until a stable creamy consistency is achieved.

The result is a structured hair conditioner with homogeneous texture and stable emulsion system.

Phytokeratine is positioned for B2B formulation of stable protein based hair care systems, supporting reproducible formulations, technological flexibility and scalable industrial manufacturing.
