MoisturizingPalmitoyl pentapeptide-4, Hydrolyzed collagen + 3 moreWorks well
“Dr. Sebagh Serum Repair aids the hydration of the skin through the hyaluronic acid that makes up part of the formula; this works by holding onto water and keeping it within the skin.”
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:
glycerin, hydrolyzed collagen.
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: hydrolyzed collagen.
The following ingredients in this product are especially good for supporting the skin barrier and helping with the hydration level: palmitoyl pentapeptide-4
Anti-agingPalmitoyl pentapeptide-4May help
“The intense formula works to rejuvenate the face by feeding the skin with micro molecular collagen, which helps to make the skin firmer and creates a lifting effect.”
This product contains palmitoyl pentapeptide-4. This ingredient might be able to help reduce and prevent fine lines and wrinkles, improve skin elasticity and firmness, but there is not enough evidence that it actually works.
