Ingredient callouts

  • Peptides (acetyl hexapeptide-1 0.05% - 0.20%, acetyl hexapeptide-1 0.20% - 0.70%, palmitoyl tetrapeptide-7 0.30% - 0.70%, palmitoyl tripeptide-1 0.30% - 0.70%, palmitoyl tetrapeptide-7 0.30% - 0.70% and acetyl tetrapeptide-9 0.20% - 0.70%). Peptides are a very big group of ingredients. They all consist of a different combination of aminoacids. Our skin produces Peptides naturally. Some of them work as natural antibiotics, promote wound-healing and production of collagen. The scientists are still studying how effective the topical application of Peptides is, but it is very likely that theynare helpful. Peptides might be able to support skin barrier restoration and even have an anti-aging benefit. At the very least, they certainly help attract water to the skin and support the hydration in this way.
  • Adenosine 0.20% - 0.70%. 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).
  • Actives derived from an extract of the Centella Asiatica plant (also known as Gotu Kola) - asiatic acid 0.20% - 0.70%, madecassic acid 0.20% - 0.70%, asiaticoside 0.15% - 0.65%, asiatic acid 0.20% - 0.70%, madecassic acid 0.20% - 0.70% and asiaticoside 0.15% - 0.65% The Centella Asiatica Actives help strengthen and restore the skin barrier, decrease inflammation in skin and neutralize free radicals. They also can help to reduce scarring. The good news is that these actives work even in low concentrations.
