LIFTILIENCE^® is a natural active ingredient derived from chestnuts and composed of functionalized helical biopolymers obtained through a novel technology. With properties already recognized in skin care,  this photopolymer provides a triple action combining a film-forming effect, retraction power and adhesion capacity and now demonstrates its potential in hair formulas dedicated to textured hair.

Improving curl definition, rebound and staying power

Assessed with a multiparametric approach, LIFTILIENCE^® immediately improves the definition of natural curls, which remains throughout the day.

Hence, a preliminary study on naturally curly locks demonstrated an immediate improvement in the definition of curls. This effect persists up to 8 hours after application. LIFTILIENCE^® capacity to immediately and durably improve the definition and rebound of natural curls was also validated through a study carried out by expert hairdresser, by combining visual and tactile evaluations. These effects were also perceived by the volunteers themselves through a consumer study conducted on a panel of 90 subjects with wavy or curly hair. 

Enhance the appearance of textured hair

LIFTILIENCE^® also stands out by preventing and limiting frizzy hair. Indeed, immediately after a single application on ex vivo locks, the active ingredient significantly reduces the surface of frizzy hair by 30%. This effect was confirmed by the volunteers themselves, since 68% of them reported that up to 8 hours after application, the appearance of frizzy hair was limited. Hair gloss is also promoted and persists throughout the day, as confirmed by 91% of the volunteers.

At the end of the consumer study, LIFTILIENCE^® was highly appreciated, receiving a mean score of 8.0/10, confirming its interest as a novel and effective natural ingredient in the hair care segment.
