Ingredient callouts

• This product also contains Vitamin C (Ascorbic Acid). It can be an effective active for anti-aging and evening out the skin tone, but in this product it is used for stabilizing other ingredients in the formulation. In this concentration (0.25% - 0.45%) it cannot have a noticeable benefit for the skin.
• This product includes a form of Retinoids (vitamin A) - retinyl acetate 0.45% - 0.65% and retinyl acetate 0.25% - 0.50%, but this type of vitamin A is not very effective. It could in theory help with fine lines and wrinkles, but the effect is most likely minimal.
• Peptides (palmitoyl tetrapeptide-7 0.30% - 0.60%, palmitoyl oligopeptide 0.40% - 0.60%, palmitoyl tetrapeptide-7 0.20% - 0.35% and palmitoyl oligopeptide 0.25% - 0.45%). 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.
• Humectants (sucrose 0.25% - 0.50%, panthenol 0.45% - 0.70%, glycerin 0.70% - 1.05% and panthenol 0.25% - 0.50%). These ingredients help attract water to the upper layer of the skin and improve the skin hydration.
