Hailing from Taiwan, 5S3C is a brand of Life Star International, a Taiwanese biotechnology company that specializes in medical dressings and stem cell research. Life Star has won numerous awards for its research and technological achievements in the biomedical industry since its establishment in 2016.
Together with the department of biomedical engineering at the National Taiwan University, Life Star carried out 3 years of laboratory research and development into the efficacy and extraction of silk fibroin from silk cocoons.
From farm to face, their raw ingredient, silk fibroin is extracted from silk cocoons locally sourced from Taiwan silk farm and inspected for its quality through third party inspection company, SGS.
The silk cocoons are then delivered to their own biomedical lab where they are in full control of the entire manufacturing process, from the extraction of silk fibroin to the end product.
With years of optimizing the extraction process, 5S3C skincare products contain only the highest purity of silk fibroin formulated by their in-house R&D team using patented technologies. They are natural, cruelty-free and are designed for results. Read more about silk fibroin on their website.
5S stands for: Shine, Softness, Satisfaction, Sensation, and Sustainability.
3C stands for: Cocoon, Cotton, and Cosmetics. Speaking to S and C in reverse design, there is a dream that they would like to reverse sericulture that was once brilliant in Taiwan with more high value-added products related to silk.
A testament to their commitment to safety and quality, 5S3C silk fibroin masks were awarded the acclaimed Symbol of National Quality in the Cosmetics and Skincare Category. Check out the full patents and certifications on their website.
