Anti-aging
Many people consider preventing skin aging one of their most essential needs. Over the years, the cosmetic industry has strengthened this wish with new formulations and active ingredients. Consumers highly appreciate good looks and well-being.
Active anti-aging ingredients are participating in both directions. The tests on human volunteers demonstrated the positive influence of many modern ingredients and complexes against skin aging.
The active support of energy control in the cells and the prevention of DNA damage are essential steps to counteract the process of accelerated aging, often induced by UV light. The specific combinations of anti-aging ingredients and complexes do even more.
Strong regenerative effects, like stimulating collagen, support the consumer's need for well-being, resulting in improved skin elasticity and wrinkle reduction. The more consumers learn from the concepts and claims of cosmetic products containing anti-aging ingredients, the higher their expectations are.

Heptapeptide-15 mimics skin’s natural growth factors, stimulating fibroblasts differentiation and proliferation and enhancing extracellular matrix components production, such as collagen, elastin, and GAGs.
Heptapeptide-34 is a synthetic peptide that simulates the binding domain of Transforming Growth Factor-beta1 (TGF-β1), promoting collagen production and accelerating wound healing.
Turmeric (Curcuma longa) is a spice used in oriental cuisine and medicine (traditional Chinese and Ayurveda) and as an ingredient in beauty preparations. It contains Turmerin protein with antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties.
Heptapeptide-7 is a synthetic peptide with sequence Met-Gly-Arg-Asn-Ile-Arg-Asn, a fragment of a well-studied peptide HB-107 with wound-healing and anti-aging properties.
Heptapeptide-8 is a synthetic matrikine peptide that repeats a part of Laminin-5 and mimics its stimulating action. It has the sequence Ile-Arg-Leu-Arg-Phe-Leu-Arg and is also known under the trade name Laminixyl IS™.
Hexacarboxymethyl Dipeptide-12 is a peptide derivative that acts as a direct activator of Sirtuin1 (SIRT1). SIRT1 is an NAD+-dependent deacetylase enzyme that regulates cellular metabolism, survival, and lifespan. It deacetylates the target protein FoxO1, initiating cell autophagy.
Hexapeptide-10 is a synthetic peptide (known under the trade name Serilesine®) that repeats an adhesion sequence of Laminin protein. This restores the cutaneous structure and leaves a redensifying and restructuring effect on the skin.
Hexapeptide-2 is a synthetic peptide with sequence His-Trp-Ala-Trp-Phe-Lys, a competitor (antagonist) of endogenous α-MSH (peptide; alpha-Melanocyte-stimulating hormone) that promotes melanin pigment production and skin pigmentation.
Hexapeptide-3 is a synthetic biomimetic peptide (with the sequence: Ala-Asp-Leu-Lys-Pro-Thr) that mimics fibronectin found in skin extracellular matrix (ECM) and is involved in tissue repair, wound healing, and cell adhesion.
