Among all the wealth of oils valuable for cosmetology, it occupies a special place, not only because of its exoticism, but also due to its wide range of beneficial properties. The oil is a natural product in the form of an oily liquid substance of red-yellow color. The chemical composition of oil from silkworm pupae is rich in biologically active substances, namely: vitamin complex (A, D, B, E), amino acids, unsaturated fatty acids (linolenic acid), soluble proteins.

Chrysalid oil is a godsend for modern cosmetology. During age-related changes, it serves as an excellent antioxidant and will slow down the aging process: the skin will instantly feel a lifting effect thanks to the unique ability of chrysalid oil to significantly enhance the effect of elastin and collagen; it will return freshness and elasticity to dull and tired skin.

Rahmanova.
