What are peptides?

If with hyaluronic acid and collagen everything seems clear, then what action do peptides have? The cosmetics producers have started adding them to creams comparatively lately. But each second cosmetologist would recommend you to search for peptides when choosing anti-aging products. These substances can already be found in the skin and are produced naturally. Peptides — are protein molecules consisting of amino acids. In simple words, they line up and organize the inner processes: the cells «find out» what’s going on with the epidermis, and give the appropriate commands. The body produces these compounds approximately until 25-30 years, after that the metabolism slows down and the incorrect work of the peptides is being reflected on our face. 

How do peptides work in cosmetics?

Having a rare for protein ability, the peptides can get inside quickly and deeply. They are absolutely safe to use — this is one of the reasons for using them in cosmetology. One more feature is that you do not need to give the injections: even in the composition of the cream they go through the outermost layer of the epidermis and fulfill the functions.

The primary tasks of peptides are to activate the abilities of our skin cells to restore and recover, to improve the synthesis of collagen, elastin, hyaluronic acid, and GAGs. Besides that, they regulate the immune reaction of the skin and affect the inflammatory processes.

The main types of peptides are:

Signal

These peptides tell about the malfunctions in the system when there is a lack of building material. Such peptides can regulate the collagen and elastin synthesis. The products having them often have a lifting effect.

Stimulating

These ones help to «gather» the collagen fibers correctly. They influence the firmness of the skin and form the basal level of the epidermis (the innermost, next to the dermis).

Immune

The antioxidants help the work of the immune system. For example, a dipeptide carnosine is often used to treat inflamed skin, acne as well as skin after peelings, and other traumatic procedures. It hastens regeneration and contributes to healing.
