Key actives
Product Summary
"HydroPeptide - Power Serum" is effective for: Moisturizing
This product could be helpful for: Anti-aging, but its actives are not the most effective or are not well-studied.
Ingredient callouts
- Peptides (palmitoyl tripeptide-5 0.15% - 0.25%, palmitoyl hexapeptide-19 0.25% - 0.45%, hexapeptide-11 0.30% - 0.55%, dipeptide diaminobutyroyl benzylamide diacetate 0.20% - 0.40%, palmitoyl dipeptide-5 diaminobutyroyl hydroxythreonine 0.15% - 0.25%, acetyl hexapeptide-30 0.20% - 0.35% and acetyl dipeptide-1 cetyl ester 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 (sodium hyaluronate 0.25% - 0.45% and glycerin 4.80% - 5.90%). These ingredients help attract water to the upper layer of the skin and improve the skin hydration.

Moisturizing
What does the product description say?
Firm, smooth and lift fine lines and wrinkles with HydroPeptide Power Serum, now available at Face the Future Advanced Skin Clinic and Online Shop.

This product contains good ingredients to attract water to the upper layer of the skin. These ingredients are called "humectants": glycerin, sodium hyaluronate.
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. If the air is dry, humectants can speed up the moisture loss from the skin. This is why it is a good idea to use another product on top of this one to help "seal in" the moisture (look for ingredients like dimethicone, squalane, oils and butters).
The following ingredients in this product are especially good for supporting the skin barrier and helping with the hydration level: acetyl dipeptide-1 cetyl ester, acetyl hexapeptide-30, dipeptide diaminobutyroyl benzylamide diacetate, hexapeptide-11, palmitoyl dipeptide-5 diaminobutyroyl hydroxythreonine, palmitoyl hexapeptide-19, palmitoyl tripeptide-5
