What Is Maca Root Extract?
Maca root extract is a valuable, adaptogenic plant active obtained from the Lepidium meyenii plant, whose origins lie in the high Andes of Peru with their demanding climate. Known for the resilience it shows against nature's harshest conditions, this special plant brings its strength and nourishing qualities to hair care products in the cosmetics world too. Thanks to the rich amino acids, minerals and vitamins it contains, it helps provide the care the hair fibres and scalp need. On its journey from traditional beauty rituals to modern cosmetic formulations, maca root extract is a component that stands out particularly for supporting the hair's natural barrier against the wearing effects of external factors. At Lacinia Cosmetics, we carefully blend this unique power of nature into our innovative formulas.

How Is It Used?
Maca root extract is a compatible ingredient that can easily be brought into your daily hair care routine. It appears frequently in the formulations of shampoos for care against hair fall, leave-in conditioners and intensive hair serums in particular. For the best results, you can apply shampoos containing maca root extract by gently massaging your wet hair and scalp. Massaging helps the product spread evenly over the scalp and improves the care effect. For those looking for intensive support, Lacinia's hair serums, expertly developed and enriched with maca root extract, can complete the routine when applied to clean, slightly damp roots. Regular, consistent use matters greatly if you are to observe this valuable ingredient's nourishing and protective effects on the hair fibres.
