Everything you need to know about bringing this product to your market.
What makes Silk Protein Essence different from a regular body lotion?
▼
Most body lotions work on the surface — they deposit a layer of oil and water that evaporates within hours. Silk Protein Essence works differently: it mimics and rebuilds the skin's own sebum membrane using ultra-low molecular weight sericin (silk protein). The 18 amino acids in sericin closely match human sebum composition, so the skin recognizes and absorbs it instantly. Result: no residue feel, long-lasting hydration, and actual barrier repair — not just temporary coverage.
Is it really non-greasy? I've heard that before.
▼
Take a tissue, press it onto skin after application — it comes back completely clean. Zero transfer. This is because the ultra-small molecular weight sericin is absorbed into the skin within seconds rather than sitting on top. Most "non-greasy" products still leave a film. Ours doesn't. It's a verifiable difference your customers can test themselves.
Can this be used on the face? What skin types?
▼
Yes — face, neck, and full body. Many customers use it as a daily facial serum in place of separate products. Suitable for all skin types: dry, oily, combination, sensitive, and post-procedure. Contains no retinol, no harsh acids, no mineral oil. The Disinfectant Product certification means it meets disinfection product safety standards — one of the strictest classifications in China's cosmetics regulatory system.
Is it safe for pregnant women?
▼
Yes. The formula contains no retinol, no salicylic acid, no parabens, and no synthetic fragrances. The core ingredient — sericin — is a natural silk protein that provides collagen-building amino acids (glycine, proline) to help skin maintain elasticity as the belly expands. Many pregnant users apply it daily from month 3 onward to keep the skin soft and supple. Stretch marks are influenced by genetics, hormones and how quickly the skin stretches, so individual results vary — consistent hydration supports skin flexibility throughout pregnancy. Many of our B2B clients position this as a "pregnancy body care essential."
How long until users see visible results?
▼
With consistent daily use, most users notice skin feels softer and less tight after showering within a few days. Over one-week regular application, dryness and flaky texture tend to improve. Skin smoothness and moisture-locking performance accumulate with long-term routine use. Individual experience varies by skin condition.
What's the shelf life and storage requirement?
▼
2 years shelf life in sealed packaging. No refrigeration needed — store below 30°C, away from direct sunlight. Once opened, best used within 12 months. Available in two sizes: 30ml (travel / trial) and 120ml (full-size / family). Both sizes are shelf-stable, making them suitable for pharmacy, e-commerce, and retail distribution without cold chain requirements.
Why did you develop this product? What's the story behind it?
▼
We observed a gap in the SEA market: most body products were either "cheap moisture" (heavy, greasy, low efficacy) or "luxury but unaffordable" (expensive serums with complicated routines). The root problem was that nobody was addressing the sebum membrane — the skin's natural protective armor. We spent 18 months developing a silk protein hydrolysis process that breaks sericin into ultra-low molecular weight active peptides small enough to be recognized and absorbed by human skin. The result is a product that mimics what healthy skin already does — we just help it get back there. It's been a bestseller for 20+ years because it solves the root cause, not the symptom.
What is your OEM MOQ for this item?
▼
Mass-production MOQ for this product is 500 kg per batch. Evaluation samples are available for testing; sample order does not count towards mass-production MOQ. We do not support small-batch trial-run production.
What is the full project turnaround time for OEM order?
▼
Factory mass-production takes 30-60 working days after contract signed, formula locked and all packaging materials arrive at our plant. Total project length varies greatly due to sample validation, custom formulation, packaging procurement and regulatory filing. China-territory Xiaozihao filing takes around 3 months, ordinary cosmetic Zhuangzihao filing takes around 20 working days. Overseas market registrations (e.g., US FDA, EU CPNP, Indonesian BPOM, Thai TFDA, EAC) are coordinated by the brand partner or their appointed local agent, with our full technical documentation support — COA, MSDS, stability test reports, free sale certificate, and factory qualification files. We will provide a detailed project timeline once your project is initiated.
