– Hydrolyzed Silk Protein (Silk Peptides)

Silk peptides aid in moisture retention due to its strong hygroscopic properties (silk is credited with the ability to retain 10,000 times its weight in water), resulting in optimum conditioning and increased strength. Provides superior conditioning properties, making it ideal for natural-type skin care such as gels, serums, and emulsion systems. Links skin fibers to improve elasticity, resiliancy, and restore the moisture balance.

There is a small amount of research showing silk protein may have topical antioxidant properties. (source: cosmeticscop.com glossary)
