<p>According to skin and hair experts, products with these in their formulation yield impressive and visible results.</p>

<p>When faced with a dozen hair product options on TikTok or at your drugstore, any interested-enough customer will be inclined to read the bottle to see if it&rsquo;s good enough to add to cart. But when have you really, really read the ingredient list?</p>
<p>Taking one for the team, we gathered which key ingredients to watch for when reading a shampoo bottle. Surprisingly, skincare ingredients that have known effectivity are finding themselves in haircare formulations, and that&rsquo;s a good thing&mdash;since 91 percent of Filipinas suffer some form of hair damage. In fact, according to this study, 3 in 5 Filipinas have not found a solution to hair damage.</p>
<p>If these pop into your haircare shopping pick in the next few months, consider yourself marked safe&mdash;they&rsquo;re great for normal to damaged hair.</p>
<h2><strong>Ceramide</strong></h2>
<p>A familiar term in the skincare realm, ceramides are a household name for a reason. Known commonly as fatty acids that seal in skin moisture, ceramides keep your skin sealed from external factors that can irritate it. This power ingredient is also being raved about by dermatologists on TikTok, and influential doctors like <strong>Dr. Nina Monterola</strong> and <strong>Dr. Alyza Montero</strong> have been talking about the multiple benefits of ceramides and why they&rsquo;re a must for your skin.</p>

<p>Good news is, ceramides can exist in haircare, too&mdash;locking healthy hair nutrients in place while protecting the hair&rsquo;s outer layer. It&rsquo;s definitely a check in your ingredient-reading exercise.</p>

<h2>Bio-Keratin&nbsp;</h2>
<p>How much do you know about keratin beyond the fact that it can smoothen your skin? When you read the term &ldquo;keratin,&rdquo; know that this super-protein does more than it&rsquo;s credited for. Keratin is a supercharged ingredient for the hair, strengthening and improving elasticity, allowing it to be stretched and styled without the tearing and breakage. There&rsquo;s more to keratin&rsquo;s anti-frizz feature than the texture, too&mdash;keratin seals in moisture that makes locks look shiny and vibrant.</p>

<h2>Restorative Oils</h2>
<p>True to its name, restorative oils like argan, marula, and sunflower oil act to repair, enhance and nourish damaged skin and hair. Restorative oils in the hair activate the process of protein synthesis, creating a polypeptide that eventually emerges as new hair. This is why restorative oils are ingredients you shouldn&rsquo;t take for granted when skimming through a haircare label, for these very oils creates healthier strands to take the place of your damaged ones.</p>

<h2>Biotin</h2>
<p>Not a stranger to those with elaborate beauty routines, biotin&mdash;or Vitamin B7&ndash;metabolizes fatty acids in the skin, creating stronger hair and nails. Hair loss cases often stem from biotin deficiency, so having this in your ingredient checklist gives you better assurance that your shampoo is working to protect you from the aging effects of hair loss.</p>
