FunctionConditioning

What it is — Albumin Extract (INCI: Albumin), a protein-rich ingredient; the protein source can vary by supplier, so it is best described in general terms.

What it does — It is commonly used as a conditioning agent that can leave a temporary smoothing, lightly tightening feel on the skin as it dries.

Typical use — Found in masks, firming-type serums and some makeup, often where an immediate taut, refined finish is wanted.

Who it suits / good to know — Generally suitable for most skin types looking for a short-term smoothing effect; the tightening feel is cosmetic and temporary.

Safety — Rated low risk and usually well tolerated. This is general information rather than medical advice; patch-test first if you have known protein sensitivities.
