Ingredient callouts

  • this product includes a form of Retinoids (vitamin A) - retinyl palmitate 0.25% - 0.45%, but this type of vitamin A is not very effective. It could in theory help with fine lines and wrinkles, but the effect is most likely minimal.
  • Peptides (acetyl dipeptide-1 cetyl ester 0.30% - 0.55% and palmitoyl hexapeptide-19 0.40% - 0.60%). 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.
  • Humectants (dextran 0.25% - 0.45%, sodium hyaluronate 0.25% - 0.45%, trehalose 0.20% - 0.40%, arginine 0.20% - 0.40%, urea 0.65% - 0.95%, sodium pca 0.90% - 1.10% and glycerin 5.00% - 6.20%). These ingredients help attract water to the upper layer of the skin and improve the skin hydration.
