SILK PROTEIN LIQUID

Description

SILK PROTEIN LIQUID

Silk protein, derived from the natural silk fibers produced by silkworms, is a highly prized ingredient in cosmetics and personal care products. It is known for its ability to nourish, hydrate, and repair both skin and hair. Silk protein is primarily made up of two components: Sericin and Fibroin, which are responsible for its moisturizing, strengthening, and protective properties. It is often used in hair care and skin care products for its silky smooth texture and its ability to improve the elasticity and health of the skin and hair.

BENEFITS

• Strengthening: Improves the strength of hair, reducing breakage and split ends.
• Improved Elasticity: Enhances the skin’s elasticity, reducing the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines.

• Soothing: Calms and soothes irritated or sensitive skin, providing relief from dryness and redness.
• Non-Greasy: Hydrates without leaving a greasy residue, making it ideal for both skin and hair.
