The natural alternative
For the peeling effect in cosmetics, QMILK Microbeads are a high-quality alternative. They are produced from 100% renewable raw materials with an innovative technology, energy-efficient and sustainable free of harmful ingredients they rebuild themselves without leaving any residue in water or soil. They have a high resistance to acids, alcohol and mild alkali in cosmetics formulation. In cosmetic formulations, they remain stable as particles.
The QMILK organic polymer is the material for the manufacture of Microbeads. It is based on the milk protein casein. The valuable ingredients of the casein are E.g. the 18 amino acids and vitamins.
They remain intact during the careful production and can develop their positive effect on the skin
The amino acids with their signal substances control the self-renewal of skin. They stimulate cell renewal and collagen formation and act as a powerful antioxidant. QMILK Microbeads have an anti-inflammatory effect.
You create a slight peeling effect. Stimulates cell renewal. QMILK Microbeads produce a slight peeling effect. This old skin cells are removed without harming the healthy skin layer. In addition, the circulation is stimulated and the appearance of the skin receives a rosy glow with a youthful radiance.
The QMILK Microbeads have interesting multifunctional properties. The antibacterial effect of casein causes the reduction of harmful bacteria. In the scientific evidence with the QMILK organic polymer and 80% reduction was achieved with the bacteria of Staphylococcus aureus (method ASTM E 2149-10). This, on the one hand, supports the microbial resistance of the product but also greatly reduces the growth of bacteria on the skin. This natural effect is completely without the addition of silver ions, polluting substances, triclosan or others.
The QMILK organic polymer has a moisture content of 10-16% and is hydrophilic.
This supports the integration into the product emulsion. It is proven that no poly aromatic hydrocarbons and metals from the organic polymer QMILK migrate according to DIN EN 71.
Also in the field of oral hygiene and dental care, sustainability is expected by the customer in addition to greater effectiveness. The QMILK® also has a demineralizing effect biopolymer in addition to the cleaning function, because casein has a high affinity to the tooth surface and protects it from acidic food and saliva proteins. Therefore, the use of the milk protein-based polymers as abrasive in toothpastes offers new caries preventive potential.
The demineralization and lesion depth of the molten tooth are demonstrably reduced by casein and the remineralization of e.g. Acid-damaged tooth fuse is promoted.
Scientific studies show that the κ-casein inhibits the adherence of plaque formers on saliva-covered hydroxyapatite, the basic substance of tooth enamel. There are also the binding capacity of the streptococcal cell wall protein-forming enzyme of Glycosyltransferase and their activity at the plaque-forming by κ-casein.
A caries protective effect of κ-casein is based on a reduced formation of cell wall proteins of the plaque formers. On the other hand is assumed on the competition with saliva proteins for binding sites on the enamel, which ultimately leads to anti-bacterial adherence.
