The primary use of wheat protein in skincare is to improve the look and texture of the skin. Natural wheat protein has beneficial components that make it great for hair. It also is great for your body.

It adds a rich flavor to foods. It's also high in vitamins E, B, and A and some beneficial fats and minerals that keep our bodies running smoothly and happily. Those same benefits make wheat protein an essential part of our diets. Plus, it's perfect for topical application.

Whether applied in a pack, cream, or cleanser, wheat protein helps refine your complexion's tone and texture.

If you have ever felt that your skin is rough or uneven, you may want to consider adding a wheat protein product to your daily skincare routine. It improves skin look, even in women with chronic conditions like rosacea and psoriasis.

Vitamins E and A are both necessary and potent natural antioxidants, helping neutralize free radicals.

Free radicals can arise from too much sun exposure — one of the leading causes of premature signs of aging, like fine lines around the eyes.

Antioxidants promote healthy skin. Serums with these age-fighters are a must for younger-looking skin.

The best thing about wheat protein is that it contains ceramides. Ceramides are unique lipids known to collect and hold onto moisture once introduced into the skin.

Not only can this prevent skin from becoming either too dry or too oily, but it also helps to plump the complexion from within the body. As a result, one of the most telling signs of aging is drooping jowls, sagging cheeks, and hollowness.

Wheat protein is applied topically, filling it with these lipids that plump up as they attract moisture. Not only does this fill out the appearance of drooping areas, but it also provides the face with a good source of long-term moisture.

Many people are also choosing to avoid wheat. They lead a gluten-free lifestyle. If you avoid wheat, we also have many gluten-free products. You can visit our learning library for more information on these items.
