Ingredient callouts

• Ceramides (ceramide np 0.55% - 1.30%). Ceramides are a type of lipids that our skin produces itself. They are a building block of the skin's barrier. Ceramides used in skincare are synthetic or extracted from plants. They work well for softening the skin surface and "patch holes" in the skin's barrier.
• Peptides (hexapeptide-9 0.15% - 0.65%, tripeptide-1 0.15% - 0.60%, palmitoyl tripeptide-1 0.15% - 0.65%, pentapeptide-4 0.15% - 0.60%, hexapeptide-11 0.35% - 0.75% and copper tripeptide-1 0.35% - 0.80%). Peptides are a very big group of ingredients. They all consist of a different combination of aminoacids. Our skin produces Peptides naturally. Some of them work as natural antibiotics, promote wound-healing and production of collagen. The scientists are still studying how effective the topical application of Peptides is, but it is very likely that theynare helpful. Peptides might be able to support skin barrier restoration and even have an anti-aging benefit. At the very least, they certainly help attract water to the skin and support the hydration in this way.
• Adenosine 0.05% - 0.20%. It is a chemical present inside our skin cells. A clinical trial confirmed that topical application of Adenosine in a low concentration can reduce dynamic wrinkles (these are the wrinkles that appear with age in a places where our mimic is the most active, for example, in the corners of the eyes or on the forehead).
• Panthenol (pro-vitamin B5) at about 1.00% - 1.50% concentration. In this concentration, Panthenol works effectively to improve the skin barrier and reduce inflammation.
• In addition, this product contains Allantoin (0.50% - 1.20%). Allantoin is helpful in wound-healing and can help restore the skin barrier faster. It might also be able to improve scars, but the evidence is not very strong for this.
• Humectants (hexapeptide-9 0.15% - 0.65%, betaine 0.10% - 0.45%, sodium hyaluronate 0.40% - 0.95%, panthenol 1.00% - 1.50%, glycerin 1.60% - 2.40% and pitera 23.00% - 34.00%). These ingredients help attract water to the upper layer of the skin and improve the skin hydration.
