Serica powder refers to the pulverizing natural silkworm extract obtained from killed silkworms or from the wild silk of caterpillars.

Serica powder is the main component of silk proteins. Serica powder acts as an antistatic agent (reduces static electricity by neutralizing the electrical charge on the surface, for example of hair), as a hair conditioning agent (makes hair easy to comb, smooth, soft and shiny and gives it volume) and as a skin care product.
