“This advanced, patent-pending formula helps visibly reduce expression lines, fine lines, wrinkles, and the look of pores by helping minimize the visible impact of repetitive facial movements—even in areas neurotoxins may not typically treat.”
This product contains acetyl hexapeptide-1, acetyl hexapeptide-8, acetyl octapeptide-3, dipeptide diaminobutyroyl benzylamide diacetate, n-prolyl palmitoyl tripeptide-56 acetate, palmitoyl hexapeptide-19, palmitoyl tetrapeptide-7, palmitoyl tripeptide-28. There is some human evidence that these ingredients help reduce and prevent fine lines and wrinkles and improve skin elasticity and firmness, though it is smaller or less consistent than the evidence for the best anti-aging ingredients.

“This product also includes hyaluronic acid, which boosts skin hydration for an overall youthful appearance.”
This product can help improve hydration of the skin with the two types of ingredients.
The first type is called “humectants”:
these ingredients help attract water.
When humectants are on the surface of the skin, they “pull in” the moisture from the outside environment, or from
within deeper layers of the skin. The following ingredients in this product do the job:
aminobutyric acid, glycerin.
This product also contains ingredients called “occlusives”. They help reduce the speed with which our skin loses moisture to the outside environment. These ingredients also help soften the upper layer of the skin, so it feels less tight and nicer to the touch. The following ingredients in this product do the job: palmitoyl tetrapeptide-7, caprylyl glycol.
The following ingredients in this product are especially good for supporting the skin barrier and helping with the hydration level: acetyl hexapeptide-1, acetyl hexapeptide-8, acetyl octapeptide-3, dipeptide diaminobutyroyl benzylamide diacetate, n-prolyl palmitoyl tripeptide-56 acetate, palmitoyl hexapeptide-19, palmitoyl tetrapeptide-7

Product summary
"Revision Skincare - Revox Line Relaxer" is a well-rounded moisturizing product. To work well, any moisturizer needs to include a combination of water-binding and emollient ingredients. Revision Skincare - Revox Line Relaxer ticks this box. Humectants in this product (acetyl hexapeptide-8, acetyl octapeptide-3, aminobutyric acid, glycerin and sodium hyaluronate) help to increase the water content in the upper layer of the skin. (These ingredients do so by "capturing" water molecules from the outside air or from within the deeper layers of the skin). Emollients in this formulation (palmitoyl tetrapeptide-7, caprylyl glycol and pentylene glycol) help to reduce the moisture loss from the skin. They also soften the skin surface and relieve the feeling of dryness and tightness.
Ingredient callouts
- We like that this moisturizer contains peptides (palmitoyl tetrapeptide-7 1.30% - 2.00%, palmitoyl hexapeptide-19 0.55% - 1.35%, n-prolyl palmitoyl tripeptide-56 acetate 0.45% - 1.05%, dipeptide diaminobutyroyl benzylamide diacetate 1.70% - 2.50%, acetyl octapeptide-3 2.70% - 4.10%, acetyl hexapeptide-8 3.50% - 5.30% and acetyl hexapeptide-1 1.00% - 1.50%). There are many different kind of peptides and they are naturally present in our skin. They all are a combination of amino-acids. Some of them work as natural anti-biotics, promote wound-healing and production of collagen. The science is still not settled on how effective peptides in skincare are, 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.
