SWANICOCO Fermentation Peptine Eye Care Cream

Judging from the ingredient list, "SWANICOCO - Fermentation Peptine Eye Care Cream" works well for improving skin hydration This moisturizer uses a good combo of humectants and emollients. These both types of ingredients are essentials for improving the skin hydration and keeping the skin barrier healthy. Acetyl hexapeptide-8, arginine, betaine, biosaccharide gum-1 and glycerin 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). Emollients in this formulation (grifola frondosa fruiting body extract, hydrolyzed collagen, arginine and dicaprylyl carbonate) 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

• This moistruizer also contains peptides (sh-polypeptide-11 0.20% - 0.75%, palmitoyl tripeptide-5 0.10% - 0.50%, dipeptide diaminobutyroyl benzylamide diacetate 0.15% - 0.60%, copper tripeptide-1 0.10% - 0.50%, acetyl dipeptide-1 cetyl ester 0.15% - 0.55%, acetyl hexapeptide-8 0.15% - 0.60%, sh-oligopeptide-2 0.15% - 0.70%, dipeptide diaminobutyroyl benzylamide diacetate 1.80% - 2.70%, copper tripeptide-1 2.60% - 3.80% and palmitoyl tripeptide-5 3.60% - 5.40%). Peptides is a very big group of ingredients. They all consist of a different combination of amino-acids. Our skin produces peptides naturally. Some of them work as natural anti-biotics, 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 peptides in skincare are helpful. They 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 0.10% - 0.35% in this moisturizer adds an anti-aging benefit. Adenosine is a compound that in involved in many biological processes inside the skin cells. According one high-quality clinical trial, topical adenosine in low concentrations can help improve "deep wrinkles" - the wrinkles that appear with age in places where our faces are most dynamic (for example, on the forehead or in the corners of the eyes).
