Ingredient callouts

  • This product also contains Vitamin C (Ascorbic Acid). It can be an effective active for anti-aging and evening out the skin tone, but in this product it is used for stabilizing other ingredients in the formulation. In this concentration (1.80% - 2.70%) it cannot have a noticeable benefit for the skin.
  • This product contains Bakuchiol (1.40% - 2.10%). It is a plant extract that is has a similar effect to that of Retinoids but with less irritation. Bakuchiol can help reduce fine lines and wrinkles, improve skin tone, reduce clogged pores and blemishes, and reduce inflammation.
  • Peptides (palmitoyl tetrapeptide-7 4.10% - 6.10% and palmitoyl tripeptide-1 5.40% - 8.10%). 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 (glycerin 0.30% - 0.70% and sodium hyaluronate 0.95% - 1.45%). These ingredients help attract water to the upper layer of the skin and improve the skin hydration.
