Peptides in Skin Care

Peptides in skin care are now considered to be important ingredients in anti-aging skin care. Here is everything you need to know to make peptides work for you

Acetyl Hexapeptide

The trademark name for Acetyl Hexapeptide is Argireline. It is also called a neuropeptide. This is the product that is marketed as “an alternative to Botox”, because it claims to relax certain types of facial wrinkles by inhibiting the release of neurotransmitters.

Palmitoyl Pentapeptide

Palmitoyl pentapeptide is also known as Matrixyl. It is the main ingredient in anti-aging products like Strivectin and was originally developed for use on stretch marks.

Palmitoyl Oligopeptide

Palmitoyl oligopeptide stimulates the synthesis of collagen and hyaluronic acid in the deep layers of the skin.

Copper Peptide

A Copper Peptide is all about the copper, not the peptide. The peptide delivers copper to the cells, which stimulates collagen production and acts as an anti-oxidant.

What is a Peptide?

What is a Peptide? Peptides occur naturally in the body and communicate with the cells to perform in a certain way.

Neutrogena Products

Neutrogena Products are considered by many to be the highest quality drugstore skin care products available. They have a great variety of skin care and body care products, including an ever growing selection of anti-aging products.

Retinol Eye Products

Do you need Retinol Eye Products? Retinol is scientifically proven to reduce the signs of aging and the skin around the eyes is the first to show signs of aging. It should be a perfect match, but it's not. First of all retinol is very irritating to the delicate skin around the eye, so proceed with caution. Second, many of the eye creams said to contain retinol are in little jars. The air and light exposure in the jars renders the retinol worthless. Don't waste your money on a retinol eye cream in a jar.

Retinol Capsules

Retinol Capsules are a wonderful way to add retinol to your existing skin care without adding another product. You simply open a capsule each day, add it to an existing product - either a serum or cream - and apply it with the other product. An added bonus is that you know the retinol inside is fresh and potent.

Retinol Cream

Retinol Cream is the best choice if you have normal to dry skin and are looking for a multi-purpose product. Creams are thicker and provide more moisture to the skin than lotions or serums.

Retinol Lotion

Retinol Lotion is a good choice if you want to add retinol to you skin care regimen in a multi-purpose product that also provides moisturization. Here are the best retinol lotions.

Retinol Serum

Retinol Serum is a lighter liquid that is rapidly absorbed into the skin. This is a good choice for those with oilier skin and anyone who wants to add retinol to their regimen without adding another layer of moisturization.

Ice Elements Cleanser

Ice Elements Cleanser (the official name is Rejuvenate Revitalizing Gel Cleanser For Normal to Oily and Combination Skin is a very nice cleanser that leaves you skin feeling clean but not stripped, balanced and very soft. It is an aloe (vs. water) based gel cleanser for normal to oily skin.
