Active ingredient
Artichoke Phyto Extract
In the Yves Rocher Brand laboratories in France, through a patented (1) eco-extraction process, our experts obtained an exceptional active ingredient — Artichoke Phyto-Extract. Eco-extraction is an innovative technology that helps preserve the integrity and freshness of active molecules, ensuring their maximum effectiveness. Our Artichoke Phyto-Extract, with a high concentration of polyphenols with antioxidant properties, protects the keratin naturally present in the hair shaft, both on the surface (+83% (2)) and inside the hair (+69% (2)). The hair structure is protected for longer. Main active ingredient: Plant-Based Keratin. To enhance the protective action of Artichoke, Yves Rocher experts selected Plant-Based Keratin — a unique active ingredient derived from wheat. This biomimetic complex of 6 essential amino acids, with a composition similar to the keratin found in the hair shaft, makes this active ingredient compatible with the hair. As a result, Plant-Based Keratin attaches to damaged areas on the surface of the hair shaft for targeted repair (2). Additional active ingredients: Inulin combines prebiotic activity with a moisturizing effect. Fructooligosaccharides have moisturizing properties and help improve hair elasticity. Tocopherol has an antioxidant effect: by protecting hair from the harmful effects of free radicals, it helps restore vitality to the strands. Lactic Acid increases moisture levels, thereby improving hair elasticity, and helps strengthen the lipid barrier. (1) Patent filed in France. (2) Ex vivo tests.
