SILAB’s Commendable Achievement
At the Making Cosmetics trade exhibition held in Milan on November 20, SILAB’s innovative natural anti-aging ingredient, COMMUSYS, was celebrated with the Wise Ingredients Award for Active Ingredients.
The Science Behind COMMUSYS
SILAB’s journey with COMMUSYS centers on understanding how aging impacts the crucial communication between the dermis and epidermis. This communication plays a vital role in keeping the skin vibrant and youthful. Through groundbreaking in vitro studies, the team identified the mediators that facilitate interactions between these two layers of skin. They discovered that as we age, these interactions deteriorate, leading to a decline in the epidermis’s biological functions. With COMMUSYS®, SILAB has successfully restored the molecular activity that allows the dermis to communicate effectively with the epidermis, reviving its essential functions.
A Commitment to Innovation
Brigitte Closs-Gonthier, the CEO and General Manager responsible for R&D, Quality, and Communication at SILAB, shared her excitement about the award. She noted that COMMUSYS® is a perfect example of the company’s strengths converging—skin biology expertise, mastery of beneficial natural peptides, and advanced biotechnological methods all come together in this product. SILAB boasts its own cutting-edge biotechnology production facility, where they cultivate yeast, microalgae, and bacteria, yielding unique and valuable molecules. Closs-Gonthier emphasized that this recognition reflects SILAB’s dedication to scientific progress and its commitment to core foundational principles.
Formulated using biopeptides derived from the yeast species Pichia stipitis, cultivated within SILAB’s specialized biotechnology site, COMMUSYS® stands as a complete solution to anti-aging concerns. By reestablishing the crucial communication pathways that tend to diminish over time, this groundbreaking ingredient not only increases hydration and smoothing effects but also enhances the radiance of the skin.
