Peptides are found naturally in the skin. They’re formed from the union of amino acids and their main action is to transfer information between the cells.
They have a potent anti-ageing effect, a highly moisturising profile and a significant firming action on the skin, providing a pleasant feeling to the touch.
They form a protective and moisturising film over the skin, which improves the cohesion of the epidermal extracellular matrix, maintains the compact state of the lipid monolayers of the epidermis, increases cell protein levels and induces collagen formation.
