Overview

Function and skin care benefits

Recombinant Collagen is a biotechnology-derived collagen ingredient produced through controlled biosynthesis and bio-synthesized using advanced fermentation processes. It offers an animal-free alternative to conventional animal-derived collagen and is designed for modern skincare formulations focused on hydration, skin conditioning, and overall skin appearance.

With excellent moisturizing and skin-conditioning properties, Recombinant Collagen helps support moisture retention at the skin surface and promotes a smoother, softer, and more supple-looking complexion.

Compared with conventional animal-derived collagen, bio-synthesized recombinant collagen offers high purity, consistent quality, and excellent formulation compatibility for advanced skincare applications.

Key benefits

  • Hydration Support — Helps improve skin hydration and maintain a moisturized skin feel.

  • Smoother & Softer-Looking Skin — Supports smoother, softer, and more supple-looking skin.

  • Fine Line & Elasticity Support — Helps improve the appearance of fine lines and promotes firmer, more elastic-looking skin.

  • Skin Conditioning — Provides skin-conditioning benefits to support a smooth, healthy-looking skin surface.

  • Moisture Retention — Helps support skin moisture retention under dry environmental conditions.

Efficacy evaluation

Formulation guidelines

  • Aqueous Phase Addition — Recombinant Collagen is water-soluble and can be directly added to the aqueous phase of cosmetic formulations.

  • Addition Stage & Temperature — It is recommended to add the ingredient during the final stage of formulation while maintaining the processing temperature below 40°C to preserve product stability.

  • Formulation Compatibility — Compatible with various skincare formulations, including masks, serums, creams, and lotions.

Stability ranges may vary depending on molecular weight grade, concentration, formulation matrix, and processing conditions. Final formulation stability should be confirmed through appropriate stability testing.
