Silk in Skincare
The benefits of silk in skincare
Silk has been used in skincare for over 5,000 years with impressive results, with women working on China's silk farms famously known for having the softest hands in the world.
Silk's benefits are attributed to its 18 amino acids, which share a 90% affinity with the human skin. These amino acids enhance the skin's hydrating and reparative properties, promoting improved cell regeneration, elasticity, and increased firmness.
The silk story
Seresilk pays homage to the heritage of silk while embracing its transformative potential. The story begins in the ancient lands of China, known as "Seres," where silk farmers, renowned for having the softest hands in the world, captivated imaginations with their skillful practices. At its core lies the natural art of silk spinning—a meticulous process that demands months of expert cultivation. Perfectly ovate in shape and yielding over 1,000 meters of continuous thread, silk stands as nature’s strongest yet lightest fiber, each cocoon telling its own tale of elegance and distinction.
But the true magic of silk has only just begun to unravel at Seresilk. The mission here is simple yet profound: to offer skincare that is both uncomplicated and effective, premium and elegant, rooted in ancient methods yet tailored for modern needs. Leading the growth of Australia’s silk industry, Seresilk understands the significance of bespoke rearing practices. Drawing on knowledge developed from ancient wisdom passed down through generations, the brand finds inspiration in the rich heritage of the Wurundjeri people, where the land itself supports and nurtures their silk.
As experts in silk, Seresilk harnesses this sacred land with its deep-rooted traditions and stories to create skincare products that deliver visible results while embracing the elegance and luxury of Australian silk skincare. Join Seresilk on a journey through time and tradition. In their world, skincare transcends routine—it's a luxurious experience that leaves one feeling radiant and rejuvenated.

Silk, once a closely guarded secret of the Chinese imperial family, has evolved into a global symbol of luxury and elegance. The journey of silk to the world stage began with two intrepid monks who, in the 6th century, brought silkworm eggs and mulberry shoots back to Constantinople, cleverly hidden in their hollowed-out walking sticks. This daring mission marked the beginning of the Silk Road, a trade route that connected East and West and revolutionised global commerce.
Today, Seresilk honours this rich heritage by blending ancient techniques with contemporary innovation. Seresilk crafts its silk products with the same dedication to quality and beauty that captivated the rulers of the past, now enhanced by sustainable and transparent practices.
