Sine Adipe Lac

What is Sine Adipe Lac?

Sine Adipe Lac, known as skimmed milk powder, comes from cow's milk after fat removal through processes like centrifugation and spray-drying. It contains milk proteins such as casein and whey, along with lactose, minerals like calcium and potassium, and trace vitamins. Primarily used in moisturizers, creams, lotions, shampoos, and conditioners, it works by attracting and holding water to hydrate skin and hair. Its proteins form a lightweight film that smooths surfaces, enhances product spreadability, and neutralizes electrical charges on hair cuticles for tangle-free results. This multifunctional ingredient supports emulsion stability in formulations, making it ideal for daily personal care products seeking gentle, nourishing effects from natural sources.
