Peptides (palmitoyl tripeptide-5 0.20% - 0.40% and acetyl tetrapeptide-5 1.90% - 2.30%). 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 (pantolactone 0.10% - 0.15%, isomalt 0.20% - 0.40%, sodium hyaluronate 0.20% - 0.40%, histidine 0.25% - 0.50%, alanine 0.45% - 0.70%, glycine 0.50% - 0.75%, pca 0.55% - 0.85%, aspartic acid 0.65% - 0.95%, arginine 0.90% - 1.10%, sodium lactate 1.10% - 1.40%, sodium pca 1.40% - 1.70%, acetyl tetrapeptide-5 1.90% - 2.30% and glycerin 4.70% - 5.70%). These ingredients help attract water to the upper layer of the skin and improve the skin hydration.

What can the product work for?

Anti-aging

This product contains acetyl tetrapeptide-5, aspartic acid, palmitoyl tripeptide-5, serine, threonine. 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.

serine 0.4% - 0.65%

Irritation risk:

Concentration: Effectiveness: MEDIUM

An amino-acid that helps to attract water to the upper layer of the skin. In combination with other amino-acids, might help to reduce fine lines and wrinkles

aspartic acid 0.65% - 0.95%

Irritation risk:

Concentration: Effectiveness: MEDIUM

An amino-acid that helps increase skin hydration and might help to slightly improve skin firmness, potentially reducing lines and wrinkles

threonine 0.35% - 0.6%

Irritation risk:

Concentration: Effectiveness: MEDIUM

An amino-acid that helps to attract water to the upper layer of the skin. In combination with other amino-acids, might help to reduce fine lines and wrinkles

Moisturizing

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, squalene.

The following ingredients in this product are especially good for supporting the skin barrier and helping with the hydration level: acetyl tetrapeptide-5, palmitoyl tripeptide-5

beta-sitosterol 0.25% - 0.45%

Irritation risk:

Concentration: Effectiveness: HIGH

A phytosterol that can support skin's barrier function and help the skin stay hydrated

histidine 0.25% - 0.5%

Irritation risk:

Concentration: Effectiveness: HIGH

isoleucine 0.3% - 0.55%

Irritation risk:

Concentration: Effectiveness: HIGH

An amino acid that can help attract water to the upper layer of the skin and support skin's barrier function

Anti-oxidation

This product contains antioxidants (squalene) 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.

squalene 0.25% - 0.5%

Irritation risk: Comedogenicity: Medium

Concentration: Effectiveness: MEDIUM

An oil that is naturally part of skin sebum that helps to soften its upper layer, reduce water loss and neutralize free radicals. It might be comedogenic. Avoid applying large concentrations (or pure oil) before sun exposure as oxidized squalene can clog pores and lead to skin irritation. Today squalene is mostly derived from vegetable oils or synthetized by yeast

albizia julibrissin bark extract 4.1% - 5%

Irritation risk:

Concentration: Effectiveness: LOW

A plant extract that might help to neutralize free radicals in skin. Is claimed to help reduce hyperpigmentation but evidence is missing

argania spinosa sprout cell extract 0.2% - 0.4%

Irritation risk:

Concentration: Effectiveness: LOW

Plant stem cell extract. Can help attract water to the upper layer of the skin and might be helpful in neutralizing free radicals

gluconolactone 0.15% - 0.3%

Irritation risk:

Works for: Moisturizing, Exfoliation, Evens skin tone, Anti-aging, Anti-blemish, Anti-oxidation

A polyhydroxy acid (PHA) that helps shed the dead cells from the skin surface revealing smoother skin. Is believed to be genter than AHAs. It helps attract water to the upper layer of the skin and can stimulate production of skin's own hyaluronic acid resulting in improved hydration levels. It has been shown to be helpful against acne and clogged pores if used consistently (e.g over a period of 12 weeks) in high enough concentration. It can help reduce fine lines and wrinkles and improve skin tone with long-term application. Can help neutralize free radicals

tocopherol 0.25% - 0.45%

Irritation risk:

Works for: Anti-oxidation, Anti-inflammatory, Anti-aging, Moisturizing

Pure form of vitamin E. Can help moisturise and protect the skin from free radicals. Often used to help stabilise other ingredients or the formula itself
