"MAC - Wild Cherry Limited Edition Prep + Prime Lip" is a well-rounded moisturizing product.
Ingredient callouts
This moistruizer also contains peptides (palmitoyl tripeptide-1 0.45% - 1.05%). Peptides is a very big group of ingredients. They all consist of a different combination of amino-acids. Our skin produces peptides naturally. Some of them work as natural anti-biotics, 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 peptides in skincare are helpful. They 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.
