Science behind this product: Peptides are chains of amino acids that help to build up certain proteins needed by the skin such as collagen, elastin and keratin. These skin proteins are naturally synthesised by our body and are responsible for maintaining the resilience and firmness of the skin. However, with increasing age, the capacity of our body to generate these proteins (growth factors) gradually diminishes and absence of cell replacement leads to aging. Formulated with a high concentration of 7% Matrixyl 3000 peptides which is tested to regulate the expression of Progerin, a senescence marker which accumulates with age. It supports the activation of the cutaneous repair process, and in particular at the level of the fragile and UV-damage prone papillary dermis, thus is suitable and effective anti-aging serum for all skin types. The Minimalist Multi-peptide serum contains Bio-placenta, obtained from microbial fermentation, which helps in synthesising various growth factors (very similar to human Placenta). The combination of five growth factors and other essential factors in Bio-placenta can have synergistic effects on the skin and helps in skin rejuvenation and cell revitalisation. It also stimulates cell growth and promotes biosynthesis of collagen.
You can use peptides preferably in the PM skincare regime to get its maximum benefits. After cleansing your face with a mild cleanser and hydrating with hyaluronic acid (if using), apply the multi-peptide serum with the dropper and spread it evenly on the skin. Leave it for 1-2 minutes to let the serum sink in your skin cells before applying any other serum or moisturizer. Avoid using facial acids like AHAs immediately before or after applying peptide serum as it can reduce its efficiency.
