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 (0.10% - 0.50%) it cannot have a noticeable benefit for the skin.
  • This product contains Bakuchiol (0.35% - 0.75%). 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 tripeptide-5 0.20% - 0.70%, palmitoyl tripeptide-5 3.50% - 5.20%, acetyl hexapeptide-8 0.15% - 0.55% and acetyl hexapeptide-8 1.40% - 2.10%). 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 0.15% - 0.50%. It is a chemical present inside our skin cells. A clinical trial confirmed that topical application of Adenosine in a low concentration can reduce dynamic wrinkles (these are the wrinkles that appear with age in a places where our mimic is the most active, for example, in the corners of the eyes or on the forehead).
  • Humectants (sodium hyaluronate 0.15% - 0.55%, polyglycerin-3 0.15% - 0.60%, glyceryl acrylate/acrylic acid copolymer 0.15% - 0.55%, glycerin 0.45% - 1.00%, diglycerin 0.10% - 0.50%, acetyl hexapeptide-8 0.15% - 0.55% and acetyl hexapeptide-8 1.40% - 2.10%). These ingredients help attract water to the upper layer of the skin and improve the skin hydration.
