HYDROLYZED MILK PROTEIN
Is HYDROLYZED MILK PROTEIN safe for seborrheic dermatitis?
Hydrolyzed Milk Protein is generally lower concern for seborrheic dermatitis, but it is not risk-free for everyone. It conditions hair and skin and helps create a smoother feel; it does not treat seb derm.
No direct human seb derm or ingredient-specific Malassezia evidence was found. Reports on cosmetic protein hydrolysates show that immediate contact reactions can occur rarely, especially in allergy-prone people, although they do not establish a common reaction rate for this exact ingredient. Anyone with a known milk-protein allergy or a rapid hive-like reaction should avoid self-testing on inflamed skin and seek personalised advice.

What is HYDROLYZED MILK PROTEIN used for in skincare?
Hydrolyzed Milk Protein is dairy protein broken into smaller peptides so it can disperse in water-based cosmetics. It is used to condition hair and skin, reduce a rough feel and form a light surface film. It often appears with other proteins, panthenol, humectants and conditioning polymers in shampoos, masks, creams and cleansers.
