Peptides
Also known as Matrixyl, tripeptides, signal peptides, palmitoyl pentapeptide
What are peptides?
Peptides are short chains of amino acids, the building blocks of proteins like collagen. On your skin they act as messengers that tell cells to make more collagen and repair damage. Skin looks firmer and fine lines soften over two to three months, with almost no irritation.
