Hydrolyzed Pearl
What Hydrolyzed Pearl is & what it does
Hydrolyzed Pearl is a protein-rich ingredient made by breaking down natural pearl into smaller, water-soluble peptides and amino acids, along with trace minerals. In skincare it is used as a skin-conditioning agent that can lend a smooth, soft feel and is often included for its luxurious marketing appeal in brightening or radiance-themed products. The hydrolyzed form makes it easier to incorporate into water-based formulas. It is generally considered mild and well tolerated.
