These silk-infused elixirs make skin so soft.
Of course, that's a lot of worms. After studying silk proteins for over a decade, skin-care brand Eighteen B's chief science officer Lindsay Wray, a biomedical engineer, realized synthetic versions could be more effective at maintaining collagen function and supporting a healthy skin barrier. Natural silks’ benefits get watered down during a process known as hydrolysis, which degrades its proteins.
But big picture: "The science is not substantial enough to back silk alone as a wrinkle reducer like retinol," says New York City dermatologist Dendy Engelman. "However, there are studies pointing toward silk’s ability to improve penetration for actives that can help with wound healing." is indeed in Eighteen B's products. For now, expect silk to hydrate, protect, and stop a bullet. Unlined skin may be another story.
