Normal and healthy skin has wet, clean, soft, flexible, malleable look (Idson, 1987). The
smoothness can be retain by applying silk sericin .(Blank, 1952).
Silk sericin is ideal ingredient for for cosmatic application in the formulation of specific products
for skin care and hair care. It shows great potencial in reapiring ( Chromatographic profiling of
silk sericin for biomediical and cosmetic use by Sara Tengattini, Giulia orlandi 2020)
Conclusion : Chemical based products shows instant better effects but longer harmful effects.
Silk cocoon facial is a eco friendly it’s a natural fibre and biodegradable also. It has some very
effective properties like antitumour anti tanning anti wrinkles anti oxidants and a sucessful effect
of acne. Worn out cocoons are waste. So we can use it best from waste. As compaired other
chemical based products this silk cocoon facial is affordable.
