On Tuesday April 21, SILAB won the ICIC Award for its repairing natural active NEOLIPYL®, in the Science-Technology Innovative Ingredient Benchmark category, at the International Cosmetics Innovation Conference (ICIC) in Shanghai.
Only a few weeks after winning silver at the PCHi Fountain Awards, NEOLIPYL® is once again rewarded in Asia by receiving the ICIC Award in the Science-Technology Innovative Ingredient Benchmark category. By targeting lipid disorders of dry skin, NEOLIPYL® restores skin barrier integrity. These effects translate into rapid benefits observed as early as 14 days of twice-daily application: microrelief is smoothed, and skin hydration and comfort are improved. Comparative studies have demonstrated a niacinamide-like efficacy.
Brigitte Closs-Gonthier, Chief Executive Officer at SILAB, comments: “By leveraging our dual expertise in lipidomics and optical biopsies, we managed to establish the lipid signature of dry skin for the first time. Based on these studies, we were able to determine the global repairing properties of our active ingredient on Caucasian and Asian volunteers with dry skin. We are very pleased that this efficacy has been recognized, and that, for the second time in just over a month“.
NEOLIPYL® also proves to be an asset when combined with retinol. Indeed, when formulated in combination with this reference molecule, the active ingredient limits its adverse effects (dryness, discomfort, redness, etc.), without altering its anti-wrinkle efficacy. NEOLIPYL® also significantly improves the positive effect of retinol on complexion radiance.
Thus, NEOLIPYL® is positioned as a performing and effective solution against dry skin thanks to its novel restructuring activity.
