Let’s Talk Peptides:

Octapeptide-3 (10% concentration) is one of the newest advanced peptide chains; it is a string of eight peptides that work “under the skin” to help relax muscles. A confocal profilometry analysis on volunteer subjects showed a reduction in wrinkle depth up to 63%. This ingredient is being dubbed “liquid botox”, but without the negative effects like restricting the flow of fascia in the way a neurotoxin does. Octapeptide-3 works to enhance the skin’s elasticity, promoting a firmer and more supple complexion. Although it is a synthesized ingredient, the body responds to it as a naturally occurring peptide, making it suitable for all skin types and concerns. The result is a visual reduction of wrinkles and expression lines.

Acetyl hexapeptide-8 is a well-regarded synthesized peptide with a chain of six amino acids that does wonders in managing skin wrinkles. It is backed up by clinical studies and is one of the best tried and true anti-aging ingredients. With its water-binding properties, and skin-restoring abilities hexapeptide-8 improves moisture retention in the skin, stimulates, and boosts collagen production. When applied topically, it works with the neurotransmitters that signal muscles in specific areas causing them to relaxing the muscle. The result is a more even skin surface, diminished appearance of roughness, a youthful and smoother complexion.

 

What’s Inside?

here are some key ingredients

Peptides

Are a naturally occurring short chains of amino acids, the foundation for proteins including collagen, elastin, and keratin. Extensive scientific research has proven that peptides can support your skin on multiple levels, from firming, and soothing to hydrating and replenishing the skin. It’s both magic, and science.

Jujuba

Rich in vitamin C and antioxidants. It can prevent skin damage and stimulate the metabolism, leaving skin look fresh and radiant.

Kakadu Plum

It is the most vitamin C rich fruit on the planet, providing superior antioxidant and phytonutrient properties to your skin. It provides similar benefits to Vitamin C without the irritation by helping to brighten the complexion and improve overall skin tone and elasticity. Alongside its powerful antioxidant properties, Kakadu plum has proven to soothe sensitivities, diminish the appearance of redness, combat signs of aging, and protect from harsh environmental aggressors, such as pollution.

Hibiscus

An ultra-hydrating and nourishing herb that is a rich source of protein, calcium, copper, iron, magnesium, manganese, potassium, zinc, vitamins-A, B6, C, E, and K. Besides, it also contains niacin, thiamin, riboflavin, antioxidants, alpha hydroxy acids, beta hydroxy acids, malic acid, and many other compounds that benefit your skin. It helps cool and calm the skin, visually tighten pores, hydrate, cleanse pores, calm inflammation and acne, protect collagen in the skin, and speed-up healing.

Copper

Revered for it’s healing properties as far back as 400B.C. by Hippocrates, scientists are still uncovering new information regarding the functions of copper in the human body. Modern clinical research connects topical application of copper to excellent skin health, including wrinkle reduction, improved elasticity, and increase collagen levels in the skin. Copper is an essential trace mineral that facilitates the activity of several enzymes. One of them, lysyl oxidase, is required for the cross-linking of collagen and elastin, which are essential for the formation of strong and flexible connective tissue.
