Peptide
Peptides are the amino-acid chains that help your skin produce proteins such as collagen.
Helps with Anti-Aging
Some ingredients work against the signs of aging by helping skin renew itself, rebuild firmness, or fend off environmental stress. They're often used to keep skin looking firm, resilient, and youthful.
Explained
Acetyl Tetrapeptide-9 is a signal peptide. Signal peptides tell your skin to create collagen or start tissue repair.
This peptide plays a role in key skin components such as collagen, lumican, and glycosaminoglycans (GAGs). Lumican is used in collagen organization and regulation, while GAGs are a component that holds water in our skin.
The manufacturer claims this ingredient is effective at firming the skin and enhancing skin hydration.
