Ingredients Explained
These ingredients are found in both products.
Ingredients higher up in an ingredient list are typically present in a larger amount.
Acetyl Hexapeptide-8 is a peptide. A common name for this peptide is Argireline.
Argireline has a similar function to botox; it prevents muscle movement and contractions slightly. By preventing muscles from moving, argireline also prohibits the formation of fine lines and wrinkles. However, research is lacking in proving this ingredient to be as effective as botox.
On the other hand, argireline tells our body to create more collagen. Collagen is a protein that makes connective tissue. Boosting collagen production leads to a healthier skin barrier. Having a healthy skin barrier means having firm and hydrated skin.

TL;DR: Does nothing, but at least not very expensive. Irritating around the eyes.
I've used this for about 2-3 weeks now, and picked it up specifically for my undereye wrinkles, but it just burns them and dried them out. It absorbs quickly and doesn't leave you sticky like other serums. Don't let people fool you by telling you it's "Botox in a bottle." It's not. I used it on my smile lines and Show more
I could not live without this.
I have used this for a few years . I am 55 and my skin has not aged . I hardly have any wrinkles and I refuse to have fillers or Botox. This is a great product!
