Kerashaft Alab:100% green cationic active tested on Caucasian & Afro hair
- Kerashaft Alab is a globally approved active ingredient for hair care rinse-off and leave-on applications. Compared with other options in the market, Kerashaft Alab's composition is fully ‘green’ (biodegradable, vegetable-derived oligopeptides and postbiotics). It complies with Cosmos and Natrue standards, and has an ISO16128 naturality value higher than 99%.
- Its efficacy has been tested in vivo (fig.1) and ex vivo in Caucasian straight and curly hair, as well as in Afro hair (texture 4B).
KERASHAFT ALAB treatment:
shampoo @ 1.0%, serum @ 5.0%, mask @ 1.0%, leave-in @ 1.0%
- Application-wise, Kerashaft Alab is positioned as potential complement or alternative to benchmark cationic conditioning actives to significantly boost gloss, control frizz, improve combing and impart restructuring effects. Therefore, it can either complement or entirely replace conventional silicone and acrylates-based quats while maintaining ‘salon-quality’ effects, which are often challenging to achieve with purely green alternatives.

Olivoil Glutamate: olive-upcycled surfactant able to incorporate high loads of oil
- This ‘surf-active’ complex (main component INCI: Sodium Olivoyl Glutamate) was designed from the need imposed by modern trends to adapt to the standards of eco-sustainability, biodegradability and selection of clean sources.
- Obtained through an upcycling process of “lampante” olive oil and functionalized with glutamic acid (skin-compatible amino acid, expressed at high concentrations also at the level of hair keratin), the ingredient is highly biodegradable and demonstrates excellent rinsing properties, making it suitable for the development of ‘water-saving’ cosmetics products.
