MoisturizingPalmitoyl tripeptide-37, Copper tripeptide-1 + 12 moreWorks well
“A juicy blend of squalane, vitamin E and peptides, this leave-on lip mask soothes, seals in hydration and nourishes collagen to plump and firm.”
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, caprylyl glycol.
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: helianthus annuus seed oil, squalane.
The following ingredients in this product are especially good for supporting the skin barrier and helping with the hydration level: acetyl hexapeptide-8, copper tripeptide-1, palmitoyl tripeptide-37
Anti-agingPalmitoyl tripeptide-37, Copper tripeptide-1 + 2 moreMay help
“Intensely hydrates & locks in moisture Soothes & smoothes dry, chapped lips Reduces the appearance of fine lines & wrinkles 96.8% natural”
This product contains acetyl hexapeptide-8, copper tripeptide-1, palmitoyl tripeptide-37. 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.

A naturally occurring peptide. One of the most studied peptides in dermatology. It is sometimes abbreviated GHK-Cu. Belongs to the class of carrier peptides. It stimulates both synthesis and breakdown of collagen in skin. It is released in skin wounds and inflammation to support healing. It accelerates wound-healing of the skin and can stimulate hair growth. There are preliminary studies that confirm that copper tripeptide can help support collagen production reducing fine lines and wrinkles and decrease inflammation in skin.

Ingredient callouts
- Peptides (acetyl hexapeptide-8 0.05% - 0.30%, copper tripeptide-1 0.15% - 0.50% and palmitoyl tripeptide-37 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.
- Humectants (acetyl hexapeptide-8 0.05% - 0.30% and glycerin 0.55% - 1.30%). These ingredients help attract water to the upper layer of the skin and improve the skin hydration.
