Peter Thomas Roth Face Care Wrinkle Resist Eye Cream

"Peter Thomas Roth - Face Care Wrinkle Resist Eye Cream" is a well-rounded moisturizing product. As we expect from a proper moisturizer, the formula includes a combo of effective humectants and emollients. These are the two different types of ingredients that are essential for improving the skin hydration and supporting a healthy skin barrier. Acetyl hexapeptide-8, acetyl octapeptide-3, dextran, glycerin and mannitol in this product (humectants) attract water molecules to the upper layer of the skin (the water comes from the outside air or from the deeper layers of the skin if the air is dry). Palmitoyl tetrapeptide-7, palmitoyl tripeptide-1, tripeptide-1, caprylic/capric triglyceride and dimethicone in this product help decrease the water evoporation from the skin, so that it stays hydrated for longer. These ingredients also soften the skin and take away the feeling of tightness and dryness.

Ingredient callouts

• We like that this moisturizer contains peptides (dipeptide diaminobutyroyl benzylamide diacetate 0.20% - 0.40%, hexapeptide-11 0.20% - 0.40%, palmitoyl tripeptide-1 0.25% - 0.45%, tripeptide-1 0.25% - 0.45%, acetyl octapeptide-3 0.20% - 0.40%, trifluoroacetyl tripeptide-2 0.20% - 0.40%, palmitoyl tetrapeptide-7 0.20% - 0.40%, palmitoyl hexapeptide-19 0.20% - 0.35%, acetyl tetrapeptide-2 0.20% - 0.40%, acetyl tetrapeptide-9 0.25% - 0.45%, palmitoyl hexapeptide-12 0.25% - 0.50%, acetyl hexapeptide-8 0.30% - 0.50%, acetyl hexapeptide-1 0.30% - 0.60%, acetyl tetrapeptide-11 0.30% - 0.60%, tripeptide-10 citrulline 0.35% - 0.60% and palmitoyl tripeptide-5 0.40% - 0.60%). 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. Peptides 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.
