Understanding skincare Peptides: Benefits for your skin
What are peptides?
Let's start with the basics:
Peptides are protein fragments made up of amino acids. When these amino acids combine in specific ways, they form different peptides, and these peptides create proteins. Proteins like collagen and elastin are essential for maintaining skin's firmness and elasticity. Without them, skin loses firmness, develops wrinkles, and changes texture.
Research shows that anti ageing skincare peptides work in specific ways to address various skincare needs. They help revitalize skin by supporting the proteins that keep it looking youthful and resilient.
What are the benefits of peptides for skin?
Exciting new research on peptides in skincare highlights their impressive anti-aging, barrier-supporting, and hydrating properties. These findings provide more reasons to consider peptides in your skincare routine. "Having more options is great as different skin types respond uniquely to various ingredients," says dermatologist Dr. Beth McLellan.
While there are hundreds of peptides, they all share skin-restoring abilities when properly formulated. These ingredients help skin appear younger by nourishing and revitalizing its moisture and antimicrobial barrier, the skin’s microbiome.
Are peptides for skin care safe in skincare?
Yes, peptides are safe for all skin types and tones. According to safety reports from the Cosmetic Ingredient Review Expert Panel in 2017, 2018, and 2022, peptides are safe in cosmetics at current preparations and percentages, which vary by peptide.
Their safety is due to their gentle, hydrating nature and compatibility with skin. Many peptides also provide soothing benefits, like sh-polypeptide-121.
Peptides can also be taken as supplements or injectables, purported to boost health. However, these forms are not as effective for skin concerns. For safety information about supplement and injectable peptides, consult your doctor.
How to choose peptide skincare products?
Finding a product that combines the power of peptides and great supporting ingredients can be tricky, but AgeDefy Labs is here to help. Peptides are most effective in leave-on products like serums, moisturizers, boosters, eye creams, and sunscreens, as they need prolonged exposure to deliver their benefits. In rinse-off products like cleansers, peptides are rinsed off too quickly to be effective.
Packaging and formulation are crucial. Peptides work best with supporting ingredients like ceramides and hyaluronic acid and should be housed in airtight, opaque containers to prevent degradation from light and air.
Our peptide products, Copper Collagen Complex, EyeRevive Peptide Serum and 5 Peptide LineErase Serum are formulated with these principles in mind.
