Hydrolyzed Rice Protein

$93.00
Tax included.

Hydrolyzed Rice Protein is a plant-derived protein powder produced through the hydrolysis of rice, breaking down larger protein molecules into smaller peptides and amino acids. This process improves solubility and skin/hair absorption, making it a popular functional ingredient in cosmetic and personal care formulations. As a light yellow, powdery substance, it is valued for its film-forming, moisturising, and conditioning properties, and is well suited to vegan and plant-based formulation lines.
