What it is: This peptide complex is a powerful serum
with humectant properties. Contains hyaluronic acid which aids in tissue
hydration, lubrication and cellular function. Hyaluronic acid is able to hold
1000 times it own weight in moisture, making its hydrating properties simply
unmatched. Also formulated with a complex of powerful actives that together
help firm, smooth and brighten skin to its core! Feel the difference with
just one application.
Our peptides serum contains the
highest recommended concentration of active ingredients: 105 hyaluronic acid, 6% DMAE, 5% Magnesium Ascorbyl Phosphate (MAP) AKA Vitamin
C, 4% Argireline, Matrixyl, Honey extract, silk amino acids, Vitamin B5, Allantoin.
OTHER ACTIVE INGREDIENTS:
DMAE
(Dimethylaminoethanol):
DMAE fights against sagging muscles by promoting the production of
acetylcholine, the chemical responsible for creating muscle tone. By triggering
a response that tones the muscles, the result can be firmer, smoother skin with
fewer wrinkles.
MAP (magnesuim ascorbyl
phosphate): is
a water-soluble derivative of vitamin C that is rapidly gaining popularity in
skin care. It's stand-out features are that it's nonirritating, and it's more
stable than L-ascorbic acid. Research is also finding that it appears to be
just as effective as ascorbic acid in the stimulation of collagen production.
Overall, magnesuim ascorbyl phosphate appears to be a better choice than
vitamin C for people with sensitive skin and those wishing to avoid any
concomitant exfoliating effects. (Most vitamin C formulas are highly acidic and
therefore produce exfoliation.)
Hyaluronic acid (Glycosaminoglycan) is highly praised for its
ability to "reverse" or stop aging. Hyaluronic acid was nicknamed
"key to the fountain of youth" because it is a substance that
naturally occurs in humans and animals. As you age the level of hyaluronic acid
present in your body gradually diminishes.
Argireline is a unique new peptide, called Acetyl Hexapeptide-3, that
reduces the appearance of existing facial wrinkles and is also effective
against the development of new wrinkles. Studies show that argireline delivers
superior anti-wrinkle results, with the severity of wrinkles around the eyes
decreased up to 17% after 15 days of treatment and up to 27% after 30 days of
treatment. (in picture: argireline reduces the depth og wrinkle)
Matrixyl is a lipopeptide, a fatty acid mixed with amino acids. It is also
considered to be a synthetic isomer. The active element in Matrixyl is called
Micro-collagen, another peptide. Similar to copper peptides, Matrixyl
stimulates the lower layers of the skin to heal themselves, thus accelerating
the healing of wounds. Matrixyl simulates the "matrix" layers in the
skin, primarily collage and fibronectin. When stimulated, the skin produces
more collagen. Loss of collagen is what leads to thinning and wrinkling of your
skin. Matrixyl helps to counteract this natural part of the aging process. In
clinical studies, Matrixyl was show to increase overall collagen synthesis by
up to 85%, increase collagen IV synthesis by up to 64%, increase hyaluronic
acid synthesis by up to 67%.
Instructions: Apply a small amount of serum throughout
face. Gently massage face with upward motions until serum has completely been
absorbed by skin. Use twice daily, morning and night. In the event of
irritation, discontinue use. Consult your dermatologist. Mild redness is
expected while skin adapts to serum. We recommend, but it’s not necessary, to
use Maximum Hydration Cream in combination with this regiment.
