About
A collagen-derived conditioning agent with similar EU Annex III restrictions as other TEA-protein combinations.
TEA-Myristoyl Hydrolyzed Collagen is the triethanolamine salt of myristoyl-hydrolyzed collagen, functioning as a skin and hair conditioning agent. Like other TEA-protein derivatives, it falls under EU Annex III/62 restrictions due to nitrosamine formation potential. Within regulated concentration limits, it is considered safe for cosmetic use.
