What peptides should I choose?

Use the chart above to help you decide which anti-aging peptides are perfect for your formula. Next, determine your skincare goals.

• Are you showing the first signs of aging?
• Do you need a collagen boost?
• Do you need help with fine lines and wrinkles? What area of the face are wrinkles the most visible?
• Is your skin thinner than it used to be?
• Is your complexion uneven? Dull looking?
• Do you have significant volume loss? What areas of the face are the most prominent?
• Have you lost firmness and elastin? Have you noticed sagging cheeks or jowls?

Decide your goals. Then, choose the peptides you will need from the chart below. It is best to select one peptide from a category. However, at times, it is helpful to use more than one.

For example, if you create a highly concentrated eye serum to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles around the eyes, then Argireline Peptide and Snap-8 are appropriate.

Tips for Choosing Effective Ingredients

• Combine peptides to address all the needs of your skin. For example, add a collagen booster and a skin-tightening peptide if you want to reduce wrinkles. As a result, you are targeting surface wrinkles and firming and improving elasticity.
• Are there other unique ingredients that your serum needs to make it worthwhile for your complexion? Antioxidants? Apple Stem Cells? Hydration?

Why Should I Buy Anti-Aging Peptides from Skin Perfection?

Here's the deal: Many companies sell cosmetic peptides. Unfortunately, the ingredients often come from China, and you have no idea what you are buying. Then you get the major cosmetic companies that charge an arm and a leg. Yep, you've seen the serums sell for $300. Really. And then there are those companies that barely add any concentration of only one or two main ingredients.

Many companies also add water, fillers, preservatives, and other chemicals. So, you are purchasing a bottle that contains 90% water! Rest assured, at Skin Perfection, we never add any additional ingredients to our Serum Boosters! They are 100% authentic, pure anti-aging ingredients.

Benefits of Peptides for Skin Care

Until recently, peptides were far from a household word. However, the effects of these anti-aging skin care product ingredients are becoming increasingly revered as an efficient way to fight time's relentless march over delicate skin.

What are peptides? How can they enhance your skin's beauty, and how do they minimize the appearance of wrinkles?

Where Aging Starts

The visible effects of aging, such as a loss of plumpness in the skin, crow's feet, expression lines, and sagging, have various causes.

The number of birthdays one has celebrated plays a role in these unflattering events. However, many other factors also play a role. Genetics can affect how youthful (or not) a person's skin appears. Lifestyle factors include sun exposure, environmental pollution, and smoking.

The layers of the skin contain a protein called collagen. Collagen is the substance that makes your complexion look and feel firm, supple, and youthful.

As the aging process begins, the effects of environmental and other signs of aging appear. This can take a toll on the skin; it becomes thinner, more wrinkled, and sometimes seems translucent and even saggy.

These effects are due to collagen breakdown, which – while inevitable to some extent – isn't wholly irreversible.

This is where youth-boosting peptides come in. They are short chains of amino acids that signal fibroblasts to refresh and regenerate your complexion.

• Tripeptides are strands of three proteins
• Tetrapeptide is a linkage of four amino acids
• A pentapeptide is created when five amino acids are linked together
• Hexapeptides connect six units
• Heptapeptide is a strand of seven links
• Oligopeptides have eight or more

RH-Oligopeptide-1 is an Epidermal Growth Factor, the longest strand of 53 amino acids.

Advances in Anti-Aging Treatments

While millions of people each year still opt to shell out hundreds of dollars a pop for painful injections that paralyze the facial muscles, others wish to avoid these invasive treatments. But we all want to benefit from improved skin texture and less visible wrinkles.

It may seem like a pipe dream, but technological advances in-home beauty treatments have resulted in the best anti-aging skin care products available to date.

For those who aren't interested in the risks of surgical injections yet still want to maintain a youthful, vibrant appearance, peptides are the ideal anti-aging skincare product choice. But what are these mysterious substances, anyway?

Variations in Peptides

If you decide to use at-home anti-aging treatments instead of surgical injections or other pricey options, you still have choices. Unfortunately, peptides are not all created equal.

Most are formulated to perform one of two tasks in the war against aging. Either stimulate collagen production over a period or act more quickly to relax muscles to minimize facial expression lines.

There are also many companies in China making copycat peptides. Our peptides are the same ones used by all the major cosmetic companies.

Collagen-boosting peptides

Signaling peptides are the kind found in our DIY Matrixyl 3000. Designed for long-term usage, they encourage the skin to produce more collagen over time, resulting in a plumper, firmer texture and a reduction in the appearance of fine lines.

Some people begin seeing results in just a few weeks. The important thing is that collagen-stimulating peptides can be used consistently over weeks to months, building a cumulative effect. Stopping using this peptide will eventually lead to your complexion assuming its former condition.

Topical Neuropeptides

Neuropeptides have been around for a while longer than the other peptides. However, they've soared in popularity. This is mainly due to the mechanism, which resembles how Botox® works. Neuropeptides like those in our Argireline Peptide work to interrupt the signals.

They control the facial muscles, which are responsible for the face's problem areas (such as forehead expression lines and crow's feet). This action allows facial muscles to remain relaxed, making the skin appear more youthful.

You can enhance the results of topical serums and moisturizers with complimentary microcurrent treatments.

The natural beauty of these peptides is that you can incorporate them into your favorite beauty product. Fighting wrinkles doesn't get much simpler!
