Hydrolyzed Adansonia Digitata (baobab) Seed Extract is a hydrolyzed protein derivative used in skincare and haircare as a conditioning and film-forming agent that helps improve hydration, surface smoothness, and texture. It is typically employed as a supportive cosmetic ingredient rather than a clinically validated therapeutic active.
