Haemoglobin cosmetic is now popular among many women.

Developed by the Pyongyang Cosmetics Factory, this product is applicable to all kinds of skins and produces good effects in a short time.

A natural protein, haemoglobin protein has a good affinity with skin, has no side-effects, nourishes skin, removes black spots and freckles, prevents wrinkles and has other good beauty effects.

It is unavoidable that skin dries out and wrinkles appear when people get older, but the functional cosmetic helps improve the conditions to a certain degree.

The developers hit on an idea of extracting haemoglobin protein from animal blood and applying it to cosmetics.

According to Kim Jong Hyok, PhD, associate professor and lecturer at the University of Sciences, unlike the natural plant extracts, animal blood contains rich nutritive elements and biological activators. In particular, it is diverse in the composition of essential amino acids and has a high haemoglobin protein content.

Kim Hyang Sim, key developer who is workshop manager of the Pyongyang Cosmetics Factory, said that with the application of the protein containing essential amino acids and nutritive elements to damaged skin, the skin is firmed, always moisturized and preserves elasticity.

The product was highly appreciated at the national cosmetics exhibition, the light industrial goods exhibition Development of Light Industry-2025 and others.
