ELHIBIN® PF is a specialty bioactive cosmetic ingredient from dsm-firmenich, developed from a carefully purified soy protein complex. Its documented cosmetic mechanism is associated with inhibition of elastase activity, helping protect elastic fibers from breakdown, particularly in the papillary dermis.
The ingredient is designed for cosmetic formulations that target the visible signs associated with loss of skin elasticity. By helping maintain the integrity of elastic fibers, ELHIBIN® PF can be used in products formulated to support a firmer, smoother, resilient and youthful-looking skin appearance.
The supplier also describes benefits related to skin comfort, dryness and protection against UV-associated elastin degradation.
ELHIBIN® PF is supplied as a liquid and is water soluble, making it convenient for incorporation into suitable aqueous and emulsion-based cosmetic formulations. Distributor technical information lists a typical pH range of approximately 5.2–6.0 and a recommended use level of 3–7%; the current supplier TDS should take priority for commercial formulation work.
