The Skincare Buzzword That's Worth the Hype

Peptides had a resurgence in 2024 due to advanced technology that allowed us to use plants for the production of biomimetic molecules. They are short chain amino acids that are building blocks of proteins like collagen and elastin, and are naturally found in the body.

Compared to proteins, which have an amino acid number of 40+, peptides have a smaller molecular weight range with 2-40 amino acids. Unlike proteins, peptides penetrate skin better. Their smaller molecular size prevents film formation.

Peptides are frequently highlighted in all types personal care applications, including skincare serums, suncreams, shampoos, lip balms, and even makeup.

Our comprehensive range of peptides target specific areas such as face & eye contour, skin firming, collagen boosting, dark spot correction, hair thickening and an overall even skin complexion. Check out some of our most popular products below:
