CHROMAZONE™

CHROMAZONE™ with its upcycled pomegranate pericarp extract is a natural active ingredient in a liposome-based formulation and designed to protect hair color against color bleeding as well as damaging aggressors like UV rays by its potent antioxidant content. With its high affinity to keratin, CHROMAZONE™ forms a film layer on the hair cuticle and locates in the cortex by passing through the cuticle thanks to its submicron particle size. It is effective both in leave-on and rinse-off formulations.
