DS-CERAMIDE Y3S is one of the most purist ceramides containing stereochemical structure identical to those found in human skin. Ceramide 3 has been used as a highly functional cosmetic ingredient for maintaining skin moisture balance by repairing damaged skin lipid barrier.

DS-TAPS is a white to off white powder with a characteristic odor. Tetraacetylphytosphingosine, an acetylated derivative of phytosphingosine has even better efficacy in terms of stimulating in vivo synthesis of glucosylceramide probably because of its high solubility. It has been proven that DS-TAPS has very good cosmetic touch with apparently no problem of incompatibility in formulations.

DS-PHYTOSPHINGOSINE is a white to off-white powder with a characteristic odor. Phytosphingosine is used not only for skin and optimization of skin flora but also for restoration of damaged skin barrier. We found that, especially, it was effective on control of acne bacterium and S. aureus. In addition, it has been known to stimulates de novo synthesis of glucosylceramide, which helps restoring the damaged or aged skin structure. It also strengthens the skin structure.

PLASCIZE L-2200 is a newly developed nonionic acrylic polymer by GOO CHEMICAL. This particular model features moderate adhesion even in its dried state, hence the re-styling ability. In comparison to our existing model of Plascize L-222, L-2200 has a higher filming ability that helps to gather hair strings better when styling. For that L-2200 has a really good balance of stickiness and dryness, it does not get overly heavy on the hair, but retains a good amount of adhesion for an easier and more pleasant re-styling experience.
