- Product Efficacy
- Pharmacopoeia-grade arginine: alkaline amino acid pH regulator with bioactivity. Neutralizes carbomer for gel thickening, adjusts pH, supports NMF metabolism for stratum corneum hydration, and repairs damaged hair fibers.
-
- Recommended Dosage
- Leave-on products: ≤ 2%; rinse-off products: ≤ 18%
-
- Formulation Recommendation
- Pre-dissolve in water before adding. Amino acids with free amino groups (e.g., L-arginine) may cause Maillard-like browning with reducing sugars or vitamin C at pH > 6 / elevated temperatures, discoloring the product and depleting VC. Suppress at pH < 6, low temperature.
