Are the peptides for the face worth trusting?
What are peptides and should they be trusted?
What are peptides and should they be trusted?
Creams and serums with peptides are becoming more and more popular: advertising talks
about their wonderful properties, and cosmetologists strongly recommend including peptide
cosmetics in the care. However, not everyone understands exactly what their benefits are and
how such tools work.
I propose to find out: what are peptides, is it true that cosmetics with them allows you to
preserve and restore the youth of the skin, and is it possible to overdo it?
In short, peptides are short chains of amino acids. Under a microscope, it is clearly visible that
they are very similar in structure to proteins. But while the proteins are long, peptides can
contain only from 2 to 50 amino acids in composition. Due to the small size of the molecule,
peptides are more mobile. They penetrate deeper into tissues and trigger biochemical reactions
faster. It means that the effect will be seen faster. In cosmetology, they are used everywhere:
as part of creams, masks, serums, injections. In general, it happens because peptides
purposefully solve the problem. For example, they can tighten the contour of the face, remove
cellulite or treat acne. Yes, all these peptides can!

There have been a lot of different things said about cosmetics with peptides in recent years.
This ritual can be applied 3 times a week, and for very oily and porous skin – every evening.
After a couple of weeks, you will notice the first results – there are fewer black dots, the pores are less pronounced, the face is more well-groomed.
In the photo the result before/after the application of hydrophilic CLEANSING OIL CENTELLA on combination skin 3 times a week.
But the result is a girl with a more pronounced problem of open comedones, oily skin prone to inflammation.
The black dots are almost completely gone here. From cleansing, only hydrophilic oil with Centella CLEANSING OIL CENTELLA for two months with a warm towel (muslin napkin) technique, daily care, and replacement of decorative cosmetics with mineral cosmetics were also adjusted.

Peptides adjust and regulate the work of cells throughout the body. Initially, our cells produce
peptides on their own, but this process slows down or stops altogether with age or due to any
failures.
Penetrating the cells, peptides affect the receptors and transmit a signal to the cells: what
exactly do the cells need to do to improve the condition of the skin.

How Peptides work
Here are the main abilities of peptides:
Primarily due to accessibility and efficiency. It's very simple: to solve a particular problem, it is necessary to send the cells the right peptide. The result of the work of peptides is seen at both 35 and 50 years due to the size and ability to affect receptors. In addition, peptides are able to moisturize tissues, improving their condition.
What peptides exist
For the first time, scientists discovered peptides at the beginning of the XIX century. Today, more than a thousand of their various species are known in the world. There are two main categories: natural and artificial. The first one is in the environment, and the second is specially synthesized by chemists for different tasks.
Peptides, which are used in cosmetology, work to improve the quality of tissues, muscles, and the condition of the skin of the face. Of course, not all have proven themselves in the best way. Also, not all have passed full-fledged clinical trials for cosmetic use. Each of them should be as
effective as possible to give a visible result.
Therefore, from such a large list, four groups of peptides are mainly used in the production of
cosmetics:
signaling;
transport;
retarding peptides (enzyme inhibitors);
muscle relaxants (neurotransmitter inhibitors).
Signal peptides
Signal peptides transmit a certain signal to cells. For example, they transmit a signal about the need to synthesize more useful substances (collagen, elastin, hyaluronic acid) or regenerate tissues for their healing. Such peptides are also called matrikins. One of the most popular is Matryxyl Sinte 6 (Palmitoyl Tetrapeptide-38). In which products to look for – Botox Effect Booster.
Therefore, they are most often used for skin restoration and rejuvenation.
The skin contains a high level of signal peptides, so it becomes more elastic, smooth, supple, and taut. Wrinkles and age spots decrease; wounds, cracks, and scars heal faster.
Transport peptides
The function of transport peptides or carrier peptides (they are also called escanters) is to deliver the necessary trace elements to skin cells such as copper and manganese (they are necessary for wound healing and collagen synthesis). The cells begin to work actively while receiving the missing substances. That is why, the flexibility and elasticity of the skin are increasing, its appearance is improving. Transport peptides are actively used in anti-age products, creams, skin moisturizers, hair care products, and after-sun lotions. They are usually used to soothe the skin and start regeneration processes.
Receiving these peptides, the skin becomes smoother, radiant. Its tone is leveled, peeling goes away, the oval of the face is tightened, fine wrinkles are smoothed, the hair looks strong, shiny, and healthy. As a result, men make compliments, girlfriends are surprised, and the reflection in the mirror pleases.
The most popular transport peptide is a copper peptide (Copper Tripeptide). It will act as a carrier of active substances in the Booster Bar line of creams.
Retarding Peptides
This group of peptides inhibits cell aging, slowing down the breakdown of collagen in the skin and stimulating the production of hyaluronic acid. Also, it has a powerful anti-aging effect, tightens the skin, and improves tissue turgor. Peptides of this group actively fight pigmentation.
They are obtained from natural ingredients: soy, black rice, silk.
Muscle relaxants
Perhaps the most popular peptides. Penetrating the deep layers of the facial skin, muscle relaxant peptides are able to relax muscles and, as a result, smooth out wrinkles. A lot of clinical studies have been conducted on these peptides, which have shown their ability to compete with beauty injections or enhance their effect.
By relaxing muscle tension, muscle relaxants eliminate unwanted signs of aging: facial wrinkles, creases, crow's feet, which are formed on the face due to daily muscle contractions. Also, muscle relaxants improve skin tone.
The most well-known peptides in this group are Argireline (Acetyl Hexapeptide-3, Acetyl Hexapeptide-8) and Leuphasyl (Pentapeptide-18), as well as a peptide that is a synthetic analog of snake venom Syn-Ake (Dipeptide Diaminobutyroyl Benzylamide Diacetate). They can often be found in anti-age products and products with the effect of botox.It is crucial that while using products with peptides, facial expressions are not disturbed and tissue drainage does not suffer, unlike botox, Dysport, and Xeomin. For example, in our line with muscle relaxant peptides (Argireline), a BOTOX-EFFECT booster
against facial wrinkles is presented.The booster formula contains the maximum concentration of peptides (more than 7%), 3 types of hyaluronic acid, and a complex of moisturizing assets. It works comprehensively on the smoothness and elasticity of the skin.
Each group of peptides performs strictly its own functions. That is why products containing several different peptides at the same time can be found often.
NB! Peptides have a cumulative, not instantaneous effect. Their main function is to adjust and restore the proper functioning of cells. But it takes time to see the result of the proper functioning of skin cells! After a few weeks, it will be noticed how the skin is changing, the main thing is to continue the process to maintain the result.
Peptides are bioregulators, so their main goal is to help the body, not harm. In addition, they do not accumulate in the body, so it makes sense to add peptides to daily care on an ongoing basis after 30 years to help the skin.
Peptides are not addictive or non-toxic. As a rule, they do not cause allergies and are suitable for people with sensitive skin. However, in rare cases, individual intolerance may occur, but it is as well as any other component of cosmetics.
Despite the fact that many peptides are compatible with many cosmetic active components, it is still not worth combining them simultaneously with acids, retinol, and vitamin C. The bonds in the peptide molecule are destroyed, and the effectiveness is greatly reduced.
My experience
For me, cosmetics with peptides is an important element of skincare. I have been using peptides constantly since I was 35 years old. Now I'm 40, and I still look 35! And I can say with confidence that serums and creams with peptides are really working home care. It does not require effort and is necessary for each woman in the world because we are surrounded by stress, bad ecology, bad habits, lack of sleep. The skin can and should be helped. In the near future, we are preparing to release a cream, a real peptide bomb. I suggest that you try new products with peptides together with me and do not just stop time, but turn it back!
