Peptides (octapeptide-2 0.45% - 1.10%, myristoyl pentapeptide-17 2.00% - 3.10% and biotinoyl tripeptide-1 0.55% - 1.35%). 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. They 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.
Panthenol (pro-vitamin B5) at about 3.60% - 5.30% concentration. In this concentration, Panthenol works effectively to improve the skin barrier and reduce inflammation.
Humectants (hyaluronic acid 4.70% - 7.00%, glycerin 0.40% - 0.95% and panthenol 3.60% - 5.30%). These ingredients help attract water to the upper layer of the skin and improve the skin hydration.
This product can help reduce and prevent fine lines and wrinkles, improve skin elasticity and firmness because
it
contains
octapeptide-2.
These ingredients in the product can also be helpful, even though there is less evidence for their
effectiveness:
biotinoyl tripeptide-1, myristoyl pentapeptide-17.
Keep in mind that it typically takes at least 6 weeks to notice any results because the changes that are needed
to
improve fine lines and elasticity happen in the deeper layers of the skin. No topical anti-aging product can
“erase”
wrinkles or fully reverse signs of aging.
One of the best moisturizing ingredients. Attracts water into the upper layer of the skin. Naturally present in skin. Typically has large molecule size unless advertised otherwise on the product label. Helps support skin's barrier function and may help to reduce inflammation
Moisturizing
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:
glycerin, hyaluronic acid.
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:
cucurbita pepo seed oil.
The following ingredients in this product are especially good for supporting the skin barrier and helping with
the hydration level: biotinoyl tripeptide-1, myristoyl pentapeptide-17, octapeptide-2, panthenol
