The multi-functional peptide complex (Acetyl Hexapeptide-8, Copper Tripeptide-1, Palmitoyl Pentapeptide-4, Palmitoyl Tripeptide-1, Palmitoyl Tetrapeptide-7) plays a natural protective role, stimulating the skin cells' self-repair mechanism, minimizing the effects of aging, and preventing premature aging.

Additionally, the presence of the natural herbal extract complex Herb Complex along with Allantoin and Panthenol in the product's formula helps maintain skin moisture balance, while providing anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and oil-controlling properties.

The product is suitable for all skin types.

KEY INGREDIENTS AND BENEFITS

1. Multi-functional Peptide Complex

The multi-functional Peptide Complex in the formula includes Acetyl Hexapeptide-8, Copper Tripeptide-1, Palmitoyl Pentapeptide-4, Palmitoyl Tripeptide-1, Palmitoyl Tetrapeptide-7. The complex helps stimulate the production of Collagen, Elastin, and Glycosaminoglycans in the skin, acting as a natural protector, repairing damaged DNA cells, stimulating the skin cells' self-repair mechanism, minimizing the effects of aging, and preventing premature aging.

• Copper Tripeptide-1 (also known as GHK-Cu):

Is a Copper-Peptide complex. In this, Copper is an essential trace element for life that helps strengthen and repair aging skin by providing essential fatty acids and vitamins to the skin. This Peptide consists of 3 amino acid branches (building blocks of protein) with the amino acid sequence Glycine - Histidine - Lysine, or GHK. GHK is attached to Palmitic Acid (a type of fatty acid) to increase oil solubility and skin penetration. GHK is important because it is a segment of type 1 Collagen. When Collagen naturally breaks down in the skin, these peptide segments send signals to the skin to tell it to work and produce new, better Collagen. Supplementing with peptides like Collagen, GHK helps "trick" the skin into thinking that Collagen has been broken down and it's time to produce other Collagen samples.

The combination of these two components creates the Copper Tripeptide-1 complex, which helps reduce inflammation, acts as an antioxidant, heals wounds, and stimulates the production of important components in the skin such as Collagen, Elastin, and Glycosaminoglycans, thereby improving elasticity, firmness, and reducing wrinkles/fine lines on the skin.

• Palmitoyl Tripeptide-1:

Is a synthetic fatty acid-bound peptide that can help repair visible skin damage and strengthen skin's protective factors. It is classified as a messenger peptide due to its ability to "tell" the skin how to look better (when collagen naturally breaks down in the skin, the peptide fragments signal the skin to act and create new, healthier collagen).

Palmitoyl Tripeptide-1 is particularly useful for skin damaged by sun exposure, such as wrinkles and rough texture. In addition, Palmitoyl Tripeptide-1 is also highly regarded for its ability to stimulate collagen production in the skin; more collagen means fewer wrinkles and younger-looking skin.

• Palmitoyl Tetrapeptide-7:

Is a synthetic peptide consisting of multiple amino acids to reduce skin inflammation and damage. This peptide is believed to be able to stimulate collagen regeneration in the dermis and improve the epidermal barrier. Furthermore, Palmitoyl tetrapeptide-7 prevents the overproduction of chemical messengers called interleukins that can cause an inflammatory response in the skin. Therefore, the use of peptides will reduce inflammation and damage from environmental stressors such as UV rays, pollution, and stress. A study showed that skin cells exposed to UV radiation and then treated with Palmitoyl Tetrapeptide-7 had an 86% reduction in interleukin production, which helps reduce the appearance of wrinkles, improve elasticity, and skin tone.

• Acetyl Hexapeptide-8 (also known as Argireline):

Is a peptide widely present in many skin care products on the market, with its main use being to prevent muscle movement that causes wrinkles. In addition, the ingredient significantly contributes to improving hydration and stimulating collagen production.

• Palmitoyl Pentapeptide-4:

Is a peptide discovered in 1993. When applied to the skin, Palmitoyl Pentapeptide-4 functions to "signal" the body that the skin area is damaged, requiring more collagen to be produced in those areas. This type of peptide strongly stimulates natural collagen proliferation in the skin, while also improving wrinkles, including deep wrinkles, thereby bringing visibly elastic and vibrant skin.

2. Pro Anti-Irritant Complex

The complex includes:

Dipotassium glycyrrhizinate

A widely used anti-inflammatory agent isolated from licorice root. This root extract has also been used in traditional Chinese medicine for thousands of years. In cosmetics, licorice root functions as a skin conditioner with anti-inflammatory and soothing properties. It also acts as an emulsifier and gelling agent.

• Skin conditioner

Dipotassium glycyrrhizate is a skin conditioner that can improve the appearance of dry or damaged skin by reducing flaking and restoring softness.

• Soothing agent

Dipotassium glycyrrhizate has a soothing effect on the skin and is believed to help calm inflammation. Clinical studies have determined that dipotassium glycyrrhizate is an effective treatment for atopic dermatitis or eczema due to its ability to reduce redness and irritation.

• Humectant

Dipotassium glycyrrhizate has also been shown to help maintain Hyaluronic Acid levels in the skin. Hyaluronic Acid is an important molecule involved in maintaining skin hydration with the ability to hold 1,000 times its molecular weight in water. By maintaining Hyaluronic Acid levels in the skin, Dipotassium glycyrrhizate helps maintain youthful, firm, and plump skin.

• Emulsifier

Dipotassium glycyrrhizate acts as an emulsifier and gelling agent in cosmetics and personal care products. Emulsifiers improve product consistency, allowing for even distribution of topical skincare benefits.

Chamomilla Recutita (Matricaria) Flower Extract

German chamomile flower extract, has anti-inflammatory properties that can soothe inflammation. Compared to Roman chamomile, German chamomile contains higher levels of important active ingredients that exhibit anti-inflammatory capabilities, such as the terpenoids chamazulene and α-bisabolol (also known as levomenol). Chamomile can neutralize skin irritants. In addition to its anti-itch, anti-inflammatory, and non-comedogenic properties, flavonoids in chamomile also accelerate the recovery of damaged skin. It also has antioxidant properties to fight harmful free radicals.

Allantoin

Found in the plant extract of the comfrey plant, it provides benefits such as: moisturizing, its keratolytic properties can increase the water content in cells, thereby counteracting the damage of transepidermal water loss (TEWL) in the dermis, helping the skin stay plump and youthful; keratolytic, enhancing the shedding of the upper layers of dead skin cells, helping the skin become smoother, promoting new skin cell production. It also has soothing and wound-healing effects, and reduces skin irritation by forming complexes with irritating and sensitizing agents. Allantoin is very beneficial in facilitating collagen synthesis, as it stimulates fibroblasts (cells responsible for collagen production), it also enhances extracellular matrix synthesis, which is why it is a powerful rejuvenating agent.

3. Natural Herb Complex (Patent 10-0820010)

The natural Herb Complex includes: Lavender Flower Extract, Bergamot Leaf Extract, Peppermint Leaf Extract, Freesia Extract, Chamomilla Recutita (Matricaria) Flower Extract, and Rosemary Extract.

This complex helps soothe the skin and strengthens the skin's protective barrier. In addition, clinical trials have shown the complex to be highly effective in deep cleansing the skin, including fine dust.

4. Hamamelis Virginiana Extract

Hamamelis Virginiana Extract (also known as Witch Hazel) is an extract from the Witch Hazel plant – a prominent ingredient with powerful antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and skin-soothing properties, reducing swelling and inflammation of acne breakouts, while also helping to reduce clogged pores with its astringent properties.

This ingredient is highly suitable for oily, sensitive, or easily irritated skin.

5. Panthenol (Vitamin B5)

Soothes skin, promotes wound healing, protects skin against external factors, and rehydrates skin.

HOW TO USE

- Take an appropriate amount (2-3 pumps) and apply to dry skin. Leave on for about 15 seconds to allow the foam to bubble (the essence penetrates deep into the skin and cleanses pores).

- Gently massage the face in circular motions for about 60 seconds, then rinse thoroughly with water.

Note: Effects may vary depending on the individual's skin.
