Bipure is an innovative tetrapeptide obtained by condensation from azelaic acid and two molecules of the Dipeptide-10 (alanine-histidine). Azelaic acid acts as a lipophilic carrier that also enhances antioxidant activity, scavenging free radicals and protecting skin cells from oxidative stress.
Thanks to the presence of two dipeptide molecules, Ala-His, the whole molecule can be considered a tetrapeptide that inhibits the glycation of skin proteins and promotes cell renewal. Glycation of ECM (extracellular matrix) proteins (like collagen) is one of the aging processes in the skin that impairs the structure, distribution, and function of fibers. The molecular structure of Azelaoyl Bis-Dipeptide-10 prevents the binding of sugars to proteins (glycation), inhibiting the formation of AGEs and preserving skin firmness and elasticity.
It minimizes the impression of fine lines and wrinkles. Exhibiting a dual action against skin maturation, Azelaoyl Bis-Dipeptide-10 is a safe and effective ingredient for anti-aging preparations, which exposes a firmer, fresher, and youthful appearance.
