Properties
- Phospholipids
Each component of OvaPure™ also offers a different functional benefit to cosmetic formulations. Phospholipids (lecithin) are a well known emuslifier and many of the fatty acids are emollients or texture enhancers.. OvaPure™'s cholesterol is excellent for stabilizing formulations and it acts as an emollient and water-binding agent. The hydrolyzed egg protein (peptides) and carotenoids (lutein and zeaxanthin) provide antioxidants and crucial nutrients to skin cells.
