KERAGUARD -POWERFUL PROTECTION AND REPAIR FOR HAIR

摘要

KeraGuard is a hair care ingredient for protection and repair. It combines tara tannins derived from Caesalpinia spinosa pods and an organic sunflower sprout extract. This unique combination proves to be a powerful antioxidant elixir which is perfect for hair care because tannins naturally bind to hair keratins. The antioxidant power of KeraGuard is several fold higher than classical natural antioxidants such as green tea or resveratrol. KeraGuard efficiently protects hair against UV irradiation-induced free radical formation and demonstrated a repair effect on bleached hair. Further experiments on dyed hair tresses showed prevention of color fading after washing as well as after washing and UV exposure. Additionally, KeraGuard was found to protect the hair cuticle against heat damage.
