How we scored it

Amino acids/peptides from hydrolysis of oat protein; hydrolysis reagents leave no mass; hydrolysed protein = 1.0.
What counts. ISO 16128-2 scores the atoms that remain in the final ingredient. Reagents, solvents, catalysts and protecting groups used during manufacture leave no mass behind and are not counted.

Where it comes from

Produced by acidic, alkaline, or enzymatic hydrolysis of oat protein into amino acids and peptides. No petrochemical alternative route is used.

In plain English

A blend of amino acids from broken-down oat protein, used to condition hair and skin and reduce static. It's made from oats, entirely plant-derived.
