About

Soybean seed powder is a protein-rich ingredient commonly used in cosmetics for its nourishing and skin-conditioning properties.

Glycine soja (soybean) seed powder is derived from dried, ground soybean seeds. Soy is one of the 14 major allergens that must be declared under EU food and cosmetics labeling regulations (Regulation 1169/2011 and 1223/2009). While soybean oil is widely used in cosmetics without issues, the seed powder may contain soy protein allergens. Products containing soybean seed powder should declare 'Glycine Soja Seed Powder' on the INCI label.
