What the product description says

“An anti-aging serum providing intensive care that helps diminish fine lines and improve elasticity.”

Source: Yesstyle

This product can help reduce and prevent fine lines and wrinkles, improve skin elasticity and firmness because it contains adenosine, niacinamide, palmitoyl hexapeptide-12.

These ingredients in the product can also be helpful, even though there is less evidence for their effectiveness: acetyl decapeptide-3, acetyl hexapeptide-8, acetyl octapeptide-3, acetyl tetrapeptide-11, acetyl tetrapeptide-2, acetyl tetrapeptide-5, centella asiatica extract, copper tripeptide-1, dipeptide diaminobutyroyl benzylamide diacetate, dipeptide-1, dipeptide-2, dipeptide-4, folic acid, hexapeptide-2, hexapeptide-9, nonapeptide-1, oligopeptide-24, oligopeptide-34, palmitoyl pentapeptide-4, palmitoyl tetrapeptide-7, palmitoyl tripeptide-1, palmitoyl tripeptide-5, sh-oligopeptide-1, sh-oligopeptide-2, sh-polypeptide-11, sh-polypeptide-9, tripeptide-1, tripeptide-29, tripeptide-3.

Keep in mind that it typically takes at least 6 weeks to notice any results because the changes that are needed to improve fine lines and elasticity happen in the deeper layers of the skin. No topical anti-aging product can “erase” wrinkles or fully reverse signs of aging.

NiacinamideKey activeEffect: HighIs proven to be effective in reducing blemishes, evening out skin tone and helping to improve lines and wrinkles. It helps the skin to repair sun damage, calm down inflammation and keep maintain good levels of moisture.

What the product description says

“The skin-nourishing formula leaves your skin feeling rejuvenated and refreshed.”

Source: Yesstyle

This product can help improve hydration of the skin with the two types of ingredients.

The first type is called “humectants”:
these ingredients help attract water. When humectants are on the surface of the skin, they “pull in” the moisture from the outside environment, or from within deeper layers of the skin. The following ingredients in this product do the job: fructooligosaccharides, glycerin.

This product also contains ingredients called “occlusives”. They help reduce the speed with which our skin loses moisture to the outside environment. These ingredients also help soften the upper layer of the skin, so it feels less tight and nicer to the touch. The following ingredients in this product do the job: ceramide np, palmitoyl tetrapeptide-7.

The following ingredients in this product are especially good for supporting the skin barrier and helping with the hydration level: acetyl decapeptide-3, acetyl hexapeptide-8, acetyl octapeptide-3, acetyl tetrapeptide-11, acetyl tetrapeptide-2, acetyl tetrapeptide-3, acetyl tetrapeptide-5, ceramide np, copper tripeptide-1, dipeptide diaminobutyroyl benzylamide diacetate, dipeptide-2, dipeptide-4, hexapeptide-2, hexapeptide-9, niacinamide, nonapeptide-1, oligopeptide-24, oligopeptide-34, palmitoyl hexapeptide-12, palmitoyl pentapeptide-4, palmitoyl tetrapeptide-7, palmitoyl tripeptide-1, palmitoyl tripeptide-5, sh-oligopeptide-1, sh-oligopeptide-2, sh-polypeptide-1, sh-polypeptide-11, sh-polypeptide-9, tripeptide-1, tripeptide-29, tripeptide-3

Moisturizing

A lab-made copy of human basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF), a protein that tells skin cells to multiply. It speeds up wound healing as a prescription drug, but it is too large to pass through intact skin easily, and there is no good evidence it reduces wrinkles in skincare.

Ingredient callouts

A good concentration of Niacinamide (2.30% - 2.80%). Niacinamide is a well-studied multi-tasking active. It is stable, and can work well in almost any hydrating formulation. There is solid evidence that Niacinamide can help support skin barrier, regulate oil production and reduce acne and clogged pores. It also helps to fight photodamage and improve the skin tone, reducing pigmentation marks.
Ceramides (ceramide np 0.30% - 0.50%). 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 (sh-polypeptide-9 0.10% - 0.15%, sh-polypeptide-1 0.15% - 0.25%, oligopeptide-24 0.15% - 0.25%, acetyl decapeptide-3 0.15% - 0.30%, sh-oligopeptide-1 0.20% - 0.35%, palmitoyl tripeptide-5 0.20% - 0.40%, palmitoyl hexapeptide-12 0.20% - 0.40%, dipeptide diaminobutyroyl benzylamide diacetate 0.20% - 0.40%, hexapeptide-2 0.25% - 0.45%, acetyl tetrapeptide-2 0.25% - 0.45%, acetyl tetrapeptide-5 0.25% - 0.45%, acetyl tetrapeptide-3 0.25% - 0.45%, dipeptide-2 0.25% - 0.45%, dipeptide-4 0.25% - 0.45%, tripeptide-3 0.25% - 0.40%, oligopeptide-34 0.25% - 0.45%, acetyl octapeptide-3 0.25% - 0.45%, tripeptide-29 0.25% - 0.40%, acetyl tetrapeptide-11 0.25% - 0.45%, nonapeptide-1 0.25% - 0.45%, palmitoyl tripeptide-1 0.30% - 0.50%, palmitoyl tetrapeptide-7 0.30% - 0.50%, hexapeptide-9 0.25% - 0.45%, tripeptide-1 0.25% - 0.50%, copper tripeptide-1 0.25% - 0.45%, acetyl hexapeptide-8 0.25% - 0.45%, palmitoyl pentapeptide-4 0.25% - 0.45% and ascorbic acid polypeptide 0.25% - 0.40%). There are many different kind of Peptides and they are naturally present in our skin. They all are a combination of aminoacids. Some of them work as natural antibiotics, promote wound-healing and production of collagen. The science is still not settled on how effective Peptides are in skincare, but it is very likely that they have a benefit. They might help restore the skin barrier and fight the signs of aging. At the very least, Peptides work as humectants: they attract water to the upper layer of the skin and improve its hydration.
Adenosine 0.25% - 0.45%. It is a compound that in involved in many biological processes inside the skin cells. According one high-quality clinical trial, topical Adenosine in low concentrations can somewhat help improve "deep wrinkles" - the wrinkles that appear with age in places where our faces are most dynamic (for example, on the forehead or in the corners of the eyes).
Humectants (acetyl tetrapeptide-5 0.25% - 0.45%, acetyl octapeptide-3 0.25% - 0.45%, hexapeptide-9 0.25% - 0.45%, acetyl hexapeptide-8 0.25% - 0.45%, hyaluronic acid 0.25% - 0.45%, hydrolyzed hyaluronic acid 0.25% - 0.45%, fructooligosaccharides 0.25% - 0.45%, soluble collagen 0.45% - 0.65% and glycerin 4.60% - 5.60%). These ingredients help attract water to the upper layer of the skin and improve the skin hydration.
