Its key ingredient is keratin, which can be especially beneficial to hair that's been damaged by heat styling or bleach. The Elizavecca essence makes their hair soft, reduces frizz, and doesn't leave your hair feeling like there's product in it.

What this product is
Written from the ingredient list. Where it describes how a formula behaves, that is inferred from what the ingredients are and where they sit in the list, not measured.
Overview
Milky Piggy Collagen Coating Protein Ion Injection is a essence from Elizavecca, aimed at wavy hair, curly hair and medium hair. On the evidence of its ingredient list, the formula works on frizz control, shine and moisture. The ingredients doing most of that work are Cyclopentasiloxane, Dimethicone and Glycerin. The list runs to 35 ingredients, 12 of which carry a role we recognise for hair.
How it feels on hair
By the balance of its ingredients the formula reads as neither especially rich nor especially light. It contains Cyclopentasiloxane, Dimethicone and Dimethicone/vinyl Dimethicone Crosspolymer. Silicones smooth the cuticle and cut frizz on contact; they are also what a clarifying wash is for, because they do not rinse out with a mild shampoo.
Protein
It carries a moderate amount of protein — Hydrolyzed Silk, Hydrolyzed Collagen, Hydrolyzed Keratin and Hydrolyzed SOY Protein — enough to firm up damaged lengths without dominating the formula.
Build-up and porosity
Several ingredients here stay on the hair between washes — Cyclopentasiloxane, Dimethicone and Dimethicone/vinyl Dimethicone Crosspolymer — so on low-porosity or fine hair this is a formula that will want a clarifying wash from time to time.
Where it goes
It is a leave-in: applied after washing and not rinsed out. Apply a proper amount to dry hair, starting from the damaged parts.
What it is not for
Nothing in this formula is aimed at scalp soothing, oil control, volume / lightweight and curl definition — not a fault, just the shape of what is in the bottle, and the reason one product rarely covers a whole routine. No ingredient here is one we recognise as supporting hair growth. Reducing breakage and growing hair are different things, and this formula's evidence is for the first.
In short
Working for it
