“The ideal balance of moisture base and oil absorbs quickly and refreshingly, and stays moisturized for a long time.”
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:
alanine, arginine.
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: arginine, caprylic/capric triglyceride.
The following ingredients in this product are especially good for supporting the skin barrier and helping with the hydration level: acetyl hexapeptide-8, ceramide np, copper tripeptide-1, hexapeptide-9, oligopeptide-1, oligopeptide-3, palmitoyl pentapeptide-4, palmitoyl tripeptide-1, tripeptide-1
“Contains the CHA Power Aging Complex that makes your skin look young and healthy as if you were reborn.”
This product contains acetyl hexapeptide-8, aspartic acid, copper tripeptide-1, hexapeptide-9, lysine, oligopeptide-1, oligopeptide-3, palmitoyl pentapeptide-4, palmitoyl tripeptide-1, threonine, tripeptide-1. These ingredients 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.
This product contains antioxidants (cysteine) that might be able to help neutralize free radicals in skin to lessen the damage it gets from the UV light (sun). There is not enough evidence to confirm their effectiveness in skin though.

It stimulates both synthesis and breakdown of collagen in skin. It is released in skin wounds and inflammation to support healing. It accelerates wound-healing of the skin and can stimulate hair growth. There are preliminary studies that confirm that copper tripeptide can help support collagen production reducing fine lines and wrinkles and decrease inflammation in skin.
More about Copper tripeptide-1Help soften the upper layer of the skin and make it easier for oil and water mix together.
