Chromafend™ biofunctional from Ashland’s Vincience laboratories in France is extracted from golden flax seeds (Linseed) that are organically grown and ecoextracted.¹ Inspired by the “Hair Melanin System,” Chromafend™ biofunctional is associated with key pigmentation biomarkers linked to hair graying.
With clinically proven benefits on gray hair reduction, it can be used in hair treatments to address the following:
- when the first signs of gray hair are seen
- boost gray hair darkening and vitality
- space out gray hair coloration
- boost darkening hairs in men’s beards
key features and benefits
boosting key pigmentation markers
- increased tyrosinase, in vitro, ex vivo, in vivo
- increased TRP1, pmel17, in vitro
- increased MITF and cKit known as critical regulators of melanocytes and melanocyte stem cells (in vitro)
- increased PAR-2 involved in melanin transfer (in vitro)
- increased melanin in the hair cortex (ex vivo)
limiting the appearance of grey hair (in vivo)
- increased hair darkening (L* value)
- increased amount of dark hair (trichoScan)
- long lasting benefits (still effective at 120 days)
¹ eco-extracted according to the COSMOS* standard
