Unlock the secrets of silk-inspired formulation
For centuries, silk has fascinated people with its unique combination of softness, lightness, and strength. An elegant model of resilience designed by nature.
The silk cocoon is a highly sophisticated structure. It is not just a physical barrier, but a finely tuned system of protection and adaptation.
The following formulas feature Silkaress™ Gattefossé’s star ingredient, together with carefully selected texture ingredients. Silkaress™ is inspired by the remarkable qualities of silk, bringing these benefits to the skin.
Gattefossé's formulation laboratory has developed a range of formulas, from the lightest to the richest, bringing together a curated selection that reflects the refined and delicate sensoriality inspired by silk. This collection highlights how each emulsifier shapes its own distinct texture identity, revealing modern and sophisticated cosmetic experiences.
