Hydrolysed Silk Protein (Hydrolyzed Silk)
Hydrolysed Silk Protein is a premium, water-soluble protein derived from the silk fibres of the Bombyx mori cocoon, known for its moisture-binding and conditioning properties. It is a clear, amber liquid.
In hair care it has been reported to help improve shine, softness and manageability. In skin care it has been reported to help form a light protective layer that supports hydration and a smooth, silky feel.
Compatible with a wide range of formulations, including shampoos, conditioners, lotions and creams. Recommended at 0.5–5%, added to the water phase or during the cooling stage.
INCI Name: Hydrolyzed Silk
Safety information: for external use only. Animal-derived protein — not suitable for vegans. Rarely, silk protein sensitivity has been reported; a patch test of finished products is recommended.
