Unleash the power of nature with our Protein Cocktail, a premium active ingredient sourced from Italy.

With its exceptional water solubility at all concentrations and a recommended inclusion rate of 2-10%, our Protein Cocktail is a versatile and essential addition to your cosmetic formulations, delivering deep hydration, enhanced elasticity, and a protective barrier.
Description and Key Features
The Protein Cocktail is a sophisticated blend designed to mimic and enhance the natural proteins found in the skin and hair. Its light yellow liquid form seamlessly integrates into various formulations, ensuring ease of use. The core of this complex lies in its hydrolyzed proteins from soy, oat, and wheat. Hydrolysis breaks down larger protein molecules into smaller peptides, allowing for superior penetration and absorption by the skin and hair.
- Hydrolyzed Soy Protein: Known for its excellent moisturizing properties, it helps to improve skin elasticity and provides a protective film.
- Hydrolyzed Oat Protein: Offers soothing and anti-irritant benefits, making it ideal for sensitive skin, while also imparting a silky feel.
- Hydrolyzed Wheat Protein: Renowned for its film-forming capabilities, it helps to strengthen hair, reduce breakage, and enhance moisture retention in both skin and hair.
The inclusion of glycerin further boosts its humectant properties, drawing moisture from the environment to keep skin and hair hydrated. This water-soluble nature ensures easy incorporation into aqueous phases of cosmetic products, preventing clumping or separation.

Instructions for Preparation:
- Sanitization: Thoroughly sanitize all your equipment (beakers, stirring rods, spray bottle, etc.) using isopropyl alcohol or a sanitizing solution.
- Phase A: In a clean beaker, combine the distilled water, rose hydrosol (if using), and vegetable glycerin. Stir gently until fully mixed.
- Phase B: Add the Protein Cocktail and Panthenol to Phase A. Stir thoroughly until all ingredients are completely dissolved and uniformly dispersed.
- Phase C: Add your chosen preservative to the mixture. Stir well for several minutes to ensure even distribution.
- Final Transfer: Carefully pour the finished mist into a clean, sanitized spray bottle. Securely attach the spray pump and cap.
- Labeling: Label your bottle with the product name, ingredients, and preparation date.
Recommendations for Application:
- For Hair: Spray evenly onto clean, damp hair before styling to help detangle, reduce frizz, and protect from heat. Can also be used on dry hair to refresh and add shine.
- For Skin: After cleansing, mist onto face and body for an instant boost of hydration. Pat gently into the skin until absorbed. Can be used throughout the day to refresh and moisturize.
- Optimal Dosage: The 5% inclusion rate of Protein Cocktail in this recipe provides a significant benefit without making the product feel heavy or sticky. You can adjust this percentage (within the 2-10% recommended range) based on desired intensity.
- Storage: Store the finished product in a cool, dark place, away from direct sunlight. The shelf life will depend on the chosen preservative system, but typically ranges from 3-6 months.
- Patch Test: As with any new cosmetic product, perform a patch test on a small area of skin before full application, especially if you have sensitive skin.
