Role of Cosmetic Peptides in Anti-aging

The battle against anti-aging usually starts when women enter their 20s or 30s. To achieve this goal, different ingredients or cosmetic products are used. One of the latest popular ingredients is peptide, either naturally produced in the body or artificially synthesized. With an enlarged category, those peptides credited to be beneficial to skin care are named as cosmetic peptides.

One notable truth about cosmetic peptides is that: most peptides used in cosmetics are synthetic because engineering needs to be involved to enable greater control over stability and effectiveness when used in skin care, according to remarks from skin-care experts.

As the most powerful anti-aging ingredients, palmitoyl tripeptide-1 and acetyl tetrapeptide-5 are to be discussed in this article.

Palmitoyl Tripeptide-1

Palmitoyl tripeptide-1 is synthesized chained amino acids that have restorative benefits for skin. Collagen can be found naturally in the body or skin, which makes your skin look young and healthy. Palmitoyl tripeptide-1 performs its function by mimicking the relationship between the growth factors involved in the skin’s healing process and the production of collagen. To put it another way, palmitoyl tripeptide stimulates your skin into producing more collagen and gylcosaminogly to repair your skin, improve elasticity, decrease wrinkle length and depth, and ease skin roughness.

As to its effects in combatting aging problems, palmitoyl tripeptide-1 is really incredible. But like most skin-care ingredients, it can’t be used solely and needs to be combined with other anti-aging ingredients to work more effectively. To figure out exactly how peptides work and how to maximize their potency is a challenging task and is still being researched, but the potential power of peptides is seen as very promising. If added as part of the skin-care routine, palmitoyl tripeptide-1 can do a lot in making your skin younger, smoother and stronger.

Acetyl Tetrapeptide-5

If you are troubled by puffy eyes and undereye bags, then acetyl tetrapeptide-5 might save you from these sufferings, according to latest scientific findings.

Acetyl tetrapeptide-5, or nicknamed as Eyeseryl, is the product obtained by the acetylation of Tetrapeptide-5. Through several mechanisms, such as improving the vascular system and strengthening the skin under the eyes preventing fluid accumulation, acetyl tetrapeptisde-5 presents positive outcomes in reducing eye puffiness, improving skin elasticity and overall smoothness.

Generally speaking, acetyl tetrapeptide-5 is viewed as very promising in the cosmetic industry. A research though only 20 individuals who used the product for 30 days found that 63% to 70% of the population reduced their undereye bags symptoms. This is indeed an encouraging thing. To clear concerns of some people, this peptide ingredient appears to be quite safe.

While acetyl tetrapeptide-5 is normally used for under-eye bag treatments, it is also found in a string of other products like shampoo, conditioner, creams, lip treatments, cleansers, after-sun lotion and body lotions.
