Active
Hydrolyzed Silk
Protection you can feel. Radiance you can see.
Bioactive silk peptides that form a breathable protective film on the skin, sealing in moisture and delivering visible smoothness and radiance.
Found in: SILK NIACINAMIDE
What does Hydrolyzed Silk
Bioactive silk peptides from Bombyx mori silkworms form a soft, breathable protective film on the skin. They seal in moisture, shield against environmental stress, and leave a visible silky luminosity.
Why we chose Hydrolyzed Silk
Silk is nature's most elegant protein. The amino acids in Hydrolyzed Silk (glycine, alanine, serine) do not just smooth the surface. They actively support cell repair and strengthen skin elasticity. In safety studies, silk sericin increased skin fibroblast cell counts by 250%, demonstrating its capacity to support skin regeneration.
Key benefits of Hydrolyzed Silk
Creates a lightweight, breathable protective film on the skin. Seals in hydration while shielding against pollution and environmental stress. Delivers visible silky smoothness and a luminous appearance. Rich in amino acids that support skin cell repair. Strengthens skin elasticity for firmer, more resilient skin. Suitable for all skin types, including sensitive.
Science notes about Hydrolyzed Silk
Contains two key proteins: fibroin (structural strength) and sericin (protective, moisturizing). Hydrolysis breaks silk into smaller peptides for enhanced skin absorption. Studies show sericin increases fibroblast proliferation by up to 250%. Anti-inflammatory properties confirmed. Antioxidant activity and mild brightening potential through tyrosinase inhibition. Enhances natural moisturizing factor (NMF) and reduces trans-epidermal water loss (TEWL). CIR Expert Panel reviewed and confirmed safe for cosmetic use.
