CHROMAZONE™
Long-Lasting Color with Liposomal Defense
CHROMAZONE™ is a high-performance, natural hair color protection active developed from upcycled pomegranate pericarps sourced from the beverage industry. By combining botanical antioxidants with liposomal delivery, it is designed to protect hair color, support cuticle integrity, and defend the hair fiber against environmental and chemical stressors that contribute to color fading and protein loss. Encapsulated within liposomes, CHROMAZONE™ is engineered to pass through the cuticle and deliver targeted protection within the cortex, while simultaneously forming a protective film on the hair surface. This dual-level action helps reduce color bleeding, replenish essential lipids and proteins, and preserve color vibrancy from the very first application.
Through its liposomal structure, CHROMAZONE™ provides sustained antioxidant support that helps neutralize free radicals generated by UV exposure, pollution, and chemical treatments, factors known to accelerate pigment loss and weaken the hair’s protein structure over time. Its unique molecular composition allows CHROMAZONE™ to mimic the function of 18-MEA, helping restore the hair’s hydrophobic lipid barrier. By reinforcing this natural defense layer, it helps retain color pigments inside the fiber while improving resistance to repeated washing and external aggressors.
Validated for both rinse-off and leave-on applications, CHROMAZONE™ acts as a dual-action active for UV protection and color preservation. It reinforces the hair fiber against oxidative and environmental stress, making it particularly suitable for colored and chemically treated hair.
Developed with an upcycled approach, CHROMAZONE™ transforms a traditionally low-value byproduct into a high-efficacy, sustainable hair care active, supporting circular beauty without compromising performance.
