A protein hydrolysate that supports hydration. Safe.
Hydrolyzed Lupine Protein is a hydrolysate of lupin protein, broken down into small peptides and amino acids. It appears in creams and masks as a moisturizing and conditioning agent that forms a thin humectant film on the skin. On efficacy: it acts as a supporting humectant. Protein hydrolysates hold water at the surface and improve the feel of softness and smoothness in the short term. Firmness claims are more marketing than solid data; the contribution is real but modest and surface-level, with no deep restructuring of the skin. Topical use during pregnancy and breastfeeding poses no problem. Tolerance is high, with low irritation and allergy potential. Suitable for sensitive skin. Anyone with a known legume allergy (peanut, soy, lupin) should patch test first, since cross-sensitization occurs in some individuals.
