Copper Tripeptide-1 is a peptide naturally found in body fluids. Peptides are building blocks for protein.
Studies show this ingredient tells our body to create more collagen and elastin. Collagen is a protein that makes connective tissue. Elastin is the protein responsible for giving our skin elasticity. Our bodies start to slow down collagen and elastin production with age.
Boosting collagen and elastin production can help create a healthier skin barrier. Having a healthy skin barrier means having firm and hydrated skin. It's a win-win situation!
This ingredient helps with scar healing. This is because it breaks down damaged collagen, the main component of scar tissue. It may also help with reducing sunspots, acne scars, and uneven skin tone.

This is a good gel cream. If you’ve tried the Purito Oat gel cream then this is extremely similar! You do get half of the amount of product. But it is also cheaper too. It gets kinda watery as you rub it in. This one does contain copper peptide, niacinamide, and some other extracts. So not as sensitive friendly as the Purito gel. But with the extra ingredients, it might help with acne. This Show more
