Betaine is known as a food extract. It is an alkaline substance extracted from sugar beet.Our betaine series products are originated from chemical synthesis ,which contain less impurity and have good fluidity.This ingredient can participate in the body's metabolism Betaine is also very useful in the skin care field.
The moisturizing effect of betaine
Betaine is a true water molecule carrier. Water molecules stay in the vicinity of betaine for a shorter period of time than other humectants. A water molecule can temporarily occupy the middle of the betaine zwitterion,and it is easy to release water molecules. In the surrounding liquid, betaine can help water molecules be completely absorbed by whole living cells.
Betaine is one of the most important organic osmotic substances. Experiments have shown that the higher the content in the environment and the more dry, the higher the content of betaine in biological cells, which is used to balance the cell volume and water balance.
In the external high osmotic pressure, such as dehydration of the skin surface and ultraviolet radiation, it will cause a large loss of osmoticity in the skin cells, which will cause apoptosis, and betaine osmoticity can significantly inhibit this process in toiletries. Because of this organic osmotic substance, it penetrates into the stratum corneum of the skin to protect the balance of cells and increase the water content of the superficial skin.
Betaine's unique moisturizing mechanism performance is superior to other moisturizing agents sodium hyaluronate, amino acid, betaine can still achieve long-lasting moisturizing effect at low concentration, known as "tap water" moisturizing.
Soothing anti-allergic effects of betaine:
Betaine has anti-allergic effect and reduces the skin irritation. The addition of betaine to the refined product can significantly reduce the skin's irritating effect on the surfactant.
At present, betaine is suitable for infant and child care products. It has a good moisturizing effect on delicate skin of infants and young children. It is a natural skin emollient. Currently there are some brands of baby toiletries in the market that contain betaine, like It is a relatively low-key baby care series in Chinese products. The cream and shampoo bath products are supplemented with betaine. It is the best for the baby.
