Abstract

The present invention intends to provide a composition for hair and skin treatment containing a combination consisting of silk amino acid and protein complexes, seed oils, polysaccharides, polyol, monosaccharide, and botanicals. The composition for hair and skin treatment containing the combination consisting of silk amino acid and protein complexes, seed oils, polysaccharides, and botanicals has excellent improvement effects on the condition of the hair follicle and cuticle, imparts moisture to dry hair; thereby reducing the damaging effects of psoriasis, eczema, alopecia, and seborrheic dermatitis. Furthermore, it imparts retention of moisture to the skin resulting in an improved appearance and diminished appearance of lines on the skin. This invention relates to the manufacture of personal care products to be applied to the hair and skin. The compositions may be in the form of hair conditioners, hair growth treatments, shampoos, skin care, skin cleansing, or anti-wrinkle products, and ointments.
