Know More

Aging gracefully with radiant skin has never been easier! This product contains silk peptides, so is not considered vegan.

Silk peptides: Hydrolized silk peptides contain large amounts of hydroxyl amino-acids which are known for their important role in regulating moisture content of the skin and water binding process. Serine in silk, helps form a protective barrier on the skin and lends it's characteristic silk-like texture to this facial cream. (source)

Silk-containing products are known for their ability to support a healthy barrier on the skin, protecting the skin from damage and dehydration. However, this benefit should be attributed to the silk proteins, sericin and fibroin rather than the amino acids. (source 1, source)

Allantoin: Allantoin is widely considered to be a versatile, safe, and effective skin care ingredient with many different benefits that may include smoothing, softening, and healing of skin, promoting the shedding of outer layers of the epidermis, cellular replication and healthy tissue growth.

Panthenol/ Vitamin B5 (Pantothenic Acid): Panthenol/ Vitamin B5: This ingredient is a natural form of Vitamin B5 (aka pantothenic acid) and can be found in plants and honey. It acts as a humectant and emollient, that helps attract and hold moisture, and is known to exhibit anti-microbial properties, help counteract bacteria and attract and hold moisture in skin, which may help skin appear softer and smoother.
