The film-forming property is significant in cosmetic products, contributing to the creation of a continuous, cohesive, and smooth layer on the skin or hair. When applied to the skin, biogrape™, thanks to its ultrafine particle size and unique blend of polyphenols and dietary fibers, can form a protective film. This film acts as a breathable layer that locks in moisture, improving hydration and the overall feel of the skin. Additionally, the presence of total fatty acids enhances the film’s hydrating properties by reinforcing the lipid barrier, further preventing moisture loss. The total protein content in biogrape™ contributes to the film’s structural integrity, ensuring a durable and flexible layer that adapts to skin movements without cracking or peeling. In hair care products, this film imparts a smooth, sleek appearance and feel, providing a protective coating against environmental aggressors. Moreover, film formation enhances the longevity of the product on the skin or hair, ensuring active ingredients are retained longer and function more effectively. The fine particle size (~P90=20 µm) ensures the film formed is uniform and smooth, optimizing its protective and hydrating effects. This property is crucial for products like sunscreens, moisturizers, and hair styling products, where a lasting effect is desired, making biogrape™ an invaluable ingredient for enhancing film-forming capabilities in cosmetic formulations.
