Papaya Extract H.GL. - M.S.

Provital

Papaya extract is produced from the fruits of Carica papaya. The 3 proteases in papaya latex (papain, chymopapain and papaya-proteinase III) have proteolytic activity. The ability to hydrolyze protein fibers is useful for cosmetic products aimed at weakening body and facial hair. Degradation of the keratin in the hair follicle reduces hair shaft diameter and consequently facilitates hair removal. Thus, papaya extract is useful to formulate cosmetic depilation products.
