YES To increase penetration of hyaluronic acid To increase adhesiveness of hyaluronic acid To approach barrier function of the skin.5 Million ~.7 Million Da.53 Million ~ 1.33 Million Da HA-M57 HA-Q (Chicken comb) (Chicken comb) It was confirmed that the solution of HA-LQH made the skin moisture content higher in proportion to its concentration. HA-LQH is a granulated powder Easier to be dissolved even with low power stirrer. Easier to handle (Hard to airborne) It was confirmed that the solution of HA-LQ increased the skin moisture content over time significantly and such high content was kept even 2 minutes after the application. 2.

JP4576583 B2, EP18652 B1 PAT.P. WO26/113 A1 Because Hyalo-Oligo covers the skin surface and also penetrates into horny layer, it keeps the skin moisture both inner and outer side of the skin. Hyalo-Oligo which remains in horny layer of the skin is not washed away, thus unlike common hyaluronic acid, it retains the skin moisture even after washing. 1. Transdermal absorption 3.

ADHESION type hyaluronic acid Not easily washing off from skin and hair due to partial cationization. PAT. JP524178 B, CN11715457 B PAT.P. WO28/133267 A1 3. Adhesion test of Hyaloveil -P to the hair In addition to "retaining moisture" and "visco-elsticity" of conventional hyaluronic acid, "adhesive" feature of Hyaloveil-P makes it possible to stay longer on the hair and the skin and not easily washes off. "Moisture Veil" of " H yaloveil-" covers the surface of the skin and the hair to keep it moist even after cleansing or shampoo. Volume adhered to 1gram of hair 1. Adhesion to the skin Common hyaluronic acid Soaking the damaged hair (bleached hair) into.5% solution at 4 for 1 min. Rinsing with water and drying. (Analyzed by HPLC) Adhesion to the skin Common hyaluronic acid Applying the 1% solution of to the subject s forearm. Leaving it at rest for 3 minutes. Washing the sample off the forearm by running water. Sticking and stripping adhesive tape. Measuring the residue of hyaluronic acid in the adhesive tape by HPLC analysis. HyaloveilR-P was not washed off but remained more on the skin attributed by its ionic bonding, compared with common Hyaluronic Acid. HyaloveilR-P was not washed off but remained more on the hair attributed by its ionic bonding, compared with common hyaluronic acid. 4.

Healthy skin Dry skin Repaired skin (formerly dry skin) Horny cell Healthy skin: Lamellar layer acts as barrier to prevent skin from water evaporation. Dry skin: Out-balanced lamellar layer causes disorder of barrier function, resulting in dry skin by water evaporation. Damage the forearm skin with mixed solution of acetone and ether. Apply the 1% solution of everyday to the damaged skin before bedtime ( )Testing method of 3 and 4 are the same. Lipid layer Lamella layer Water layer Lipid layer Water layer Lipid layer "Wedge action" to joint water layer and lipid layer Repaired skin: Hyalorepair repairs out-balanced lamellar layer. When it s repaired, the barrier function gets recovered, which helps skin to retain moisture. Horny cell 11 12
Eggshell membrane Egg yolk phospholipid Eggshell membrane is a thin inside skin of eggshell and has been used to cure wound for centuries. It already appeared in Honzou-koumoku,a corpus of traditional Chinese medicine compiled in 16th century. EM Protein is a hydrolyzed eggshell membrane, which is made from eggshell membrane and made as soluble inwater by our original production method.

Nutriceutical As you get aged, hyaluronic acid in your skin decreases. The egg, from which a chick is hatched, contains all the components needed to create new life. Kewpie Corporation uses, handles, and sells approximately 2, tons of eggs annually, and for over 2 years, we have extracted and refined biologically active egg components for use in food, cosmetics, and pharmaceuticals We have applied special techniques to develop methods for extracting and refining these components from a variety of natural resources. And our products have been used not only in Japan, but also in countries across the world.
