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 (0.10% - 0.20%) it cannot have a noticeable benefit for the skin.
  • This product includes a form of Retinoids (vitamin A) - retinyl acetate 0.15% - 0.30%, 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 0.15% - 0.30%, palmitoyl tripeptide-1 0.15% - 0.30% and acetyl hexapeptide-8 0.10% - 0.20%). 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 0.15% - 0.30%. 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 (inositol 0.20% - 0.35%, aminobutyric acid 0.20% - 0.35%, glutamic acid 0.20% - 0.35%, aspartic acid 0.15% - 0.30%, glycine 0.15% - 0.25%, histidine 0.10% - 0.20%, alanine 0.10% - 0.20%, arginine 0.10% - 0.20%, sodium hyaluronate 0.10% - 0.20%, acetyl hexapeptide-8 0.10% - 0.20%, sodium lactate 0.10% - 0.20% and glycerin 3.90% - 4.80%). These ingredients help attract water to the upper layer of the skin and improve the skin hydration.
