Benefits of Silk Peptide
Evolved by Nature: The Platform
Evolved by Nature prides itself on both effectiveness and sustainability. The company works to utilize what is considered natural waste and reap its benefits, and ultimately lets it go back to nature – promoting a circular economy.
Silk Peptides are made from silk cocoons, typically considered a waste product of the natural animal-food industry. However, they have been found to create proteins beneficial for skincare. Activated Silk 33B-α is composed of Claudin-1, a bioactive protein that supports the skin barrier. As the ingredients are sourced naturally, the product is cruelty-free with no toxic chemicals included. Activated Silk 33B-α is composed solely of the active ingredient, water and salt, so when the product is washed off into the drain, it is biodegradable and the circular economy starts anew.
Activated Silk 33B-α: What are the benefits?
On top of sustainability, Activated Silk 33B-α has been proven to be effective through a clinical study – showing its positive effects in as little as 7 days. Claudin-1 is a protein found on the uppermost layer of the skin. It draws skin barrier cells close together, creating tight junctions, preventing them from loosening and drifting away from each other. This allows for maintenance of skin hydration as moisture cannot escape as well as prevention of environmental stressors from entering the skin barrier. This improves dry skin, reduces inflammation, and tight junctions keep the skin firm and younger-looking – reducing fine lines and wrinkles.
Activated Silk 33B-α is also non-occlusive and water soluble, penetrating areas that other commercial skincare products can’t reach. Along with this, it has greater longevity, allowing for ongoing positive effects.
