Silk Amino Acids
Silk Amino Acids are water-soluble proteins derived from the hydrolysis of natural silk fibers. In skincare, they are prized for their exceptional ability to form a lightweight, breathable film on the skin's surface that improves moisture retention, enhances texture, and imparts a smooth, silky feel without heaviness or occlusion.
Structurally similar to the skin's own natural moisturizing factors (NMF), Silk Amino Acids penetrate the upper layers of the skin to deliver hydration at a cellular level while simultaneously conditioning the surface. They support elasticity, improve the appearance of fine lines, and leave the skin with a refined, luminous finish.
- Moisture retention — attract and bind water to the skin for lasting hydration and suppleness
- Surface smoothing — form a fine, breathable film that improves texture and reduces the appearance of fine lines
- Skin conditioning — impart a silky, refined feel that enhances the sensory experience of each formula
- Elasticity support — help improve skin resilience and bounce over time
