About

A conditioning wheat-germ protein. CIR considers it safe when the peptides are kept short, but high-MW hydrolysates have caused cases of contact-induced wheat allergy.

Skin benefits

  • Skin- and hair-conditioning protein film
  • Adds smoothness and shine
  • Plant-derived alternative to animal proteins

Known concerns

  • Wheat-derived; coeliac users may prefer to avoid
  • Sensitisation risk if peptides exceed 30 amino acids
  • High-MW hydrolysates linked to wheat-allergy cases
  • CIR safe only when MW kept under 3500 Da
