Key actives
Product Summary
"NIOD - Non-Acid Acid Precursor 15%" could be helpful for: Anti-aging and Anti-blemish, but its actives are not the most effective or are not well-studied.
Ingredient callouts
- Peptides (myristoyl nonapeptide-3 1.40% - 2.20% and hexanoyl dipeptide-3 norleucine acetate 1.70% - 2.50%). 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.

Anti-aging
This product contains hexanoyl dipeptide-3 norleucine acetate, myristoyl nonapeptide-3. 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.

Bisabolol has a sweet floral scent and can be added to products for its aromatic properties
Evens skin tone
What does the product description say?
The powerful blend of amino isolates, probiotic bacteria and bio-ferment oligopeptide stimulate cellular turnover to smooth irregular skin texture, even skin tone and visibly boost radiance.

Exfoliation
What does the product description say?
A bio-ferment oligopeptide offers better exfoliation than alpha hydroxyl acids without irritation or inflammation.
Source: Deciem
This product does not contain effective exfoliating ingredients. It might be able to deliver physical exfoliation, that is scrub off some of the dead cells on the surface of the skin. We do not recommend physical exfoliation, because it is not uniform (some bits of skin can get exfoliated too much while others not at all). It can also traumatize the skin and aggrevate acne and other skin conditions.
