  • Arbutin

  • Niacinamide

    Niacinamide

    Soothing antiaging ingredient that gives cells energy. Help prevent recurrence of dark spots and unwanted skin pigment.

  • Peptides

    Peptides

    Peptides are a diverse group of ingredients, each offering unique benefits, such as boosting collagen production, firming skin, or improving texture by coating the skin's surface. However, peptides can inactivate other ingredients, so it's crucial to use peptide-based products in the correct step of your skincare routine and ensure all ingredients are compatible. Since peptides often struggle to penetrate the skin, they work best in a routine specifically designed to enhance their absorption. To maximize their effectiveness, your entire skincare regimen should focus on optimizing penetration, maintaining stability, and minimizing reactions with incompatible ingredients.
