Genuine Dermaroller LipoPeptide & Vitamin A Skin Improver

MoisturizingAcetyl tetrapeptide-15, Carthamus tinctorius seed oil + 10 moreWorks well
“LipoPeptide & Vitamin A Skin Improver is a modern peptide formulation that has been enhanced to provide greater anti agening and skin regeneration benefits and to focus on natural plant derived ingredients to moisurise and condition your 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, mannitol.
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: butyrospermum parkii butter, carthamus tinctorius seed oil.
The following ingredients in this product are especially good for supporting the skin barrier and helping with the hydration level: acetyl tetrapeptide-15
Anti-agingRetinyl palmitate, Acetyl tetrapeptide-15 + 2 moreMay help
“Enhanced to provide greater anti ageing and skin regeneration benefits, a must for all dermaroller owners!”
This product contains acetyl tetrapeptide-15, retinyl palmitate. There is some human evidence that these ingredients help reduce and prevent fine lines and wrinkles and improve skin elasticity and firmness, though it is smaller or less consistent than the evidence for the best anti-aging ingredients.
Anti-blemishRetinyl palmitateNot delivered
“The parabens free NEW Dermaroller Lipopeptide now contains high concentrations of the powerful skin regenerating Vitamin A and an advanced lipo-peptide to further boost skin enhancement and help manage those troublesome little blemishes and spots that we can all get from time to time.”
This product contains ingredients (retinyl palmitate) that could help reduce blemishes and clogged pores in theory, but there is not enough evidence that they actually work.
Evens skin toneSide benefit · Retinyl palmitateMay help
The following ingredient (ingredients) in this product might be helpful, but there is no evidence to confirm that it actually works: retinyl palmitate.

Three steps removed from the active form of vitamin A - retinoic acid. To have an effect in the skin, it first needs to be converted twice to become the retinoic acid. This means it is less potent than retinol, but could also be less irritating. Once converted to the retinoic acid in the skin, it helps against all signs of aging, improves skin cell turnover and helps fight blemishes and clogged pores. However, in many cosmetic formulations, it is used in a concentration that is too low to have the full effect
