Givaudan Active Beauty boosts well-ageing with launch of Siliphos®
Introducing the botanical retinol challenger that outperforms bakuchiol
Givaudan Active Beauty is strengthening its well-ageing portfolio with the launch of Siliphos®, the best natural alternative to retinoids.
Suitable for delicate skin, Siliphos® is extracted by green fractionation from milk thistle fruits and powered by Phytosome® technology. This new active ingredient outperforms the plant-based retinol alternative bakuchiol while offering benefits that challenge retinoid efficacy by reducing wrinkles without side effects.
Natural cosmetic alternatives are increasingly demanded by consumers, including in a more natural version of retinol.
According to our global CMI study¹, 77% of the consumers across 6 countries declared that they would be very interested in a natural version of retinol: enjoying the multiple skin benefits without worrying about the potential side effects, such as: redness, dryness and irritation.
“Siliphos® is the first natural alternative to retinoids and bakuchiol capable of providing well-ageing benefits comparable to retinol. Extracted from Silybum marianum Gaertn fruit, it acts directly on collagen production to provide a natural, safe and efficient skincare solution, suitable for even most delicate skins.”
Giada Maramaldi, Botanical Actives Category Manager for Active Beauty
The well-ageing performance of Siliphos® was tested in a clinical study on volunteers presenting crow’s feet and forehead wrinkles. All tests demonstrated Siliphos® to significantly outperform bakuchiol and act as efficiently as retinoids by reducing:
- Crow’s feet wrinkles by x2²
- Overall facial wrinkles by x2.3²
- Number of forehead wrinkles by 21.2%³
- Circumference of forehead wrinkles by 17.4%³
- Redness by 22.9%4
Would you like to give it try? Our marketing concept featuring Siliphos® will be presented during PCHi 2023. For more information on our powerful new active, we invite you to connect to uxbeauty.givaudan.com, our digital platform dedicated to cosmetic ingredients.
