Ingredient callouts

  • A good concentration of Niacinamide (3.00% - 3.70%). Niacinamide is a well-studied multi-tasking active. It is stable, and can work well in almost any hydrating formulation. There is solid evidence that Niacinamide can help support skin barrier, regulate oil production and reduce acne and clogged pores. It also helps to fight photodamage and improve the skin tone, reducing pigmentation marks.
  • This product contains Bakuchiol (1.10% - 1.40%). It is a plant extract that is has a similar effect to that of Retinoids but with less irritation. Bakuchiol can help reduce fine lines and wrinkles, improve skin tone, reduce clogged pores and blemishes, and reduce inflammation.
  • Ceramides (ceramide np 0.25% - 0.50%). Ceramides are a type of lipids that our skin produces itself. They are a building block of the skin's barrier. Ceramides used in skincare are synthetic or extracted from plants. They work well for softening the skin surface and "patch holes" in the skin's barrier.
  • Peptides (palmitoyl pentapeptide-4 0.25% - 0.40%, nonapeptide-1 0.25% - 0.40%, acetyl hexapeptide-8 0.20% - 0.40%, acetyl tetrapeptide-5 0.25% - 0.45%, palmitoyl tripeptide-5 0.25% - 0.40% and ascorbic acid polypeptide 0.25% - 0.45%). 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.
  • Adenosine 0.20% - 0.35%. It 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 somewhat 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).
  • Humectants (carnosine 0.20% - 0.40%, histidine 0.20% - 0.40%, arginine 0.20% - 0.40%, alanine 0.20% - 0.40%, aspartic acid 0.20% - 0.40%, glutamic acid 0.25% - 0.45%, glycine 0.20% - 0.40%, acetyl hexapeptide-8 0.20% - 0.40%, acetyl tetrapeptide-5 0.25% - 0.45%, saccharomyces ferment filtrate 0.25% - 0.45%, hydrolyzed hyaluronic acid 0.25% - 0.45%, hyaluronic acid 0.30% - 0.50%, sodium hyaluronate 0.30% - 0.55%, hydrolyzed collagen 0.40% - 0.60%, panthenol 0.45% - 0.65%, hydroxyethyl urea 0.90% - 1.10% and glycerin 4.40% - 5.40%). These ingredients help attract water to the upper layer of the skin and improve the skin hydration.
