Soy lecithin is one of the most popular ingredients in skincare products. It is often used as an emollient that can add more hydration and smooth out the skin. Soy lecithin is also used to manage eczema and acne. The fat-like element of lecithin makes it an ideal therapy for those suffering from dry and brittle hair.
Lecithin is a naturally occurring group of phospholipids that is found in both plants and animal cells. It is widely used within the food and cosmetic industry for its nutritive benefits and as a lipophilic emulsifier, thickener and emollient.
