SUBLISKIN (Sabliskin)

SUBLISKIN (Sabliskin), a biofermented smoothing active

SUBLISKIN, sometimes spelled Sabliskin, is a cosmetic active from Croda Beauty Actives, formerly Sederma. The published INCI is Sinorhizobium Meliloti Ferment Filtrate (and) Cetyl Hydroxyethylcellulose (and) Lecithin. It is made by biofermentation of the microorganism Sinorhizobium meliloti, which produces specific sugar chains that are delivered in a lecithin system. The manufacturer supplies it as a viscous, opalescent liquid. Buy SUBLISKIN from $39.99 for a 1 oz trial and scale up to bulk packs up to 32 oz; wholesale volumes are quoted on request.

What it brings to a formula

The manufacturer positions it as comfort and smoothness care for thin and fragile-looking skin. Creams with it are described as moisturizing and smoothing, helping skin look more resilient, plumper and less creased by fine lines. It suits brands targeting skin from the thirties onward that shows dryness, tiredness and fine lines.

Products and partners

The manufacturer lists face and neck care, eye contour care and body care. A use level of about 3% is recommended, with an effective pH range of 4.5 to 6.5. In an eye contour gel it pairs well with hyaluronic acid liquid, and in a moisture cream with Aqualance. See our cosmetic actives section for more appearance-focused cosmetic and moisturizing ingredients.

Processing

Add SUBLISKIN at the end of the process, below about 40 °C, and keep the finished pH between 4.5 and 6.5. Avoid very high shear for long periods so the delivery system stays intact. It ships from Florida, usually within 1 to 2 business days, in the pack sizes shown above, and US shipping is free on orders of $50 or more.
