They are recognized on the global beauty market for their high level of scientific innovation.
Solutions for compromised skin - SILAB Softcare has a strong commitment to health. Intended for the dermo-cosmetic and dermatological markets, its active ingredients respond to cutaneous disorders (atopic dermatitis, acne, etc.) by reactivating the biological mechanisms of healthy skin according to three principles of excellence: Efficacy, Safety and Naturality.
As a sustainable supplier of natural active ingredients and in line with its three founding values of independence, excellence and quality, SILAB integrates social, environmental and societal responsibility in all its activities.
The Actively Caring CSR program gathers daily sustainable actions and sets clear and ambitious objectives for the next five years. Applied to all levels of activity, it is structured in five essential pillars:
Resulting from a collaborative work team, this unifying cross-functional program is a genuine driving force for initiatives of a company naturally committed to a sustainable world. This proactive engagement is rewarded by the EcoVadis Gold status. A report that is published each year outlines the main sustainable achievements of the SILAB’s teams.
As a forerunner, SILAB is recognized worldwide as a specialist in the engineering of natural active ingredients and in the development of advanced phytotensors for the cosmetic and dermo-cosmetic industry. Driven by its high scientific expertise, SILAB launches several products each year to answer the current and future needs of its customers.
Obtained from ashwagandha, an Ayurvedic plant with adaptogenic properties, ADAPTONYL® is a natural anti-stress active ingredient capable of acting on all the factors of cutaneous exposome (environmental and lifestyle-related aggressions). Faced with their damaging effects on the epidermis and dermis, it neutralises cell stress and restores their metabolism. The global quality of the skin subjected to the exposome is thus improved: the cutaneous micro-relief is smoothed, the skin grain is refined and the complexion radiance enhanced. ADAPTONYL® is recommended in all protective care products.
APIOSKIN® is a natural plumping active ingredient with outstanding hydrating properties, derived from the giant duckweed (Spirodela polyrhiza). Purified and enriched in apiogalacturonans, which give it its highly hygroscopic capacity, APIOSKIN® is able to take up and retain water, from the stratum corneum down to the upper dermis, and thus activates the levers of skin hydration. It provides a flash and long-lasting hydration, superficially and in depth. Its smoothing, plumping and radiance-boosting effects beautify the skin. APIOSKIN® is the ideal solution for dehydrated skin.
LIGHTSKIN® is a natural depigmenting active ingredient rich in sulfur-containing peptides. The production of these molecules has been stimulated via a unique bioguiding process of the yeast Ogataea siamensis, allowing the efficacy of the active ingredient on melanocytes to be doubled. LIGHTSKIN® limits melanogenesis and the expression of pro-pigmenting receptors related to pollution or glycation products. Pigment defects are attenuated, complexion is lighter and more uniform, radiance is revived. Tested in Caucasian and Asian panels, LIGHTSKIN® is recommended in all depigmenting care products.
SENEVISIUM® is an anti-aging active ingredient rich in cyclitols derived from Ginkgo biloba, a supercentenarian tree with remarkable longevity. By circumventing the deleterious immunoevasion strategies put in place by senescent fibroblasts with age, SENEVISIUM® reactivates their natural elimination by the immune system and preserves matrix synthesis and epidermal renewal. The skin thus recovers its density and elasticity for an anti-wrinkle and radiance-boosting action. Tested in Caucasian volunteers, SENEVISIUM® is recommended in all skin care products for mature skin.
