Key Ingredients Explained via INCIdecoder.com:

Palmitoyl Tripeptide-1 - Goodie
ALSO-CALLED: Part of Matrixyl 3000, Pal-GHK, Formerly also Palmitoyl Oligopeptide | WHAT-IT-DOES: cell-communicating ingredient
A really famous peptide that is part of Matrixyl 3000, the most sold peptide complex in the word. Before we go and find out what the big deal with Matrixyl 3000 is, let's just focus on Palmitoyl Tripeptide-1 itself for a bit.
It's a small three amino acid (they are the building blocks of all proteins) peptide with the amino sequence of glycine-histidine-lysine, or GHK. GHK is attached to palmitic acid (a fatty acid) to increase oil solubility and skin penetration.

The GHK part is the important one as it's a type I collagen fragment. When collagen naturally breaks down in the skin, the resulting peptide fragments signal to the skin that it should get to work and create some nice, new collagen. Adding in collagen fragment peptides, like GHK, might trick the skin into thinking that collagen has broken down and it's time to create some more.
Therefore, Palmitoyl Tripeptide-1 is believed to be able to stimulate collagen production in the skin, and more collagen means fewer wrinkles and younger looking skin.
In Matrixyl 3000, Palmitoyl Tripeptide-1 is coupled with Palmitoyl Tetrapeptide-7 and the duo works in synergy to reduce wrinkles and give younger looking skin. According to the manufacturer's in-vivo (made on real people) test, applying 3% Matrixyl 3000 twice a day for 2 months resulted in all of the following things:

*39.4% reduction in surface occupied by deep wrinkles
*32.9% reduction in main wrinkle density
*19.9% reduction in main wrinkle average depth
*16% improvement in roughness
*16.2% in lifting effect
*5.5% improvement in elasticity
*15.5% improvement in skin tone
Manufacturer results, of course, always have to be taken with a pinch of salt, but if you like peptides, the Matryxil 3000 duo is one of the best-proven and most well-known ones and it's something that is worth trying.

Palmitoyl Tetrapeptide-7 - Goodie
ALSO-CALLED: Part of Matrixyl 3000, Pal-GQPR, Previously Palmitoyl Tetrapeptide-3 | WHAT-IT-DOES: cell-communicating ingredient
A four amino acid peptide with the amino sequence of glycine-glutamine-proline-arginine. It is attached to palmitic acid (a fatty acid) to increase oil solubility and skin penetration.
It works by reducing the production of the signal molecule, interleukin-6 (IL-6) which promotes inflammation in the skin and less inflammation means slower degradation of important things (like collagen) that results in younger looking skin for a longer time.


Palmitoyl Tripeptide-38 - Goodie
ALSO-CALLED: Matrixyl synthe'6 | WHAT-IT-DOES: cell-communicating ingredient
It's a pretty new peptide trade-named MATRIXYL™ synthe’6. The manufacturer claims that it can boost the production of 6 major components of the skin matrix (collagen I, III, IV, fibronectin, hyaluronic acid and laminin 5) that result in more even skin and fewer wrinkles particularly on the forehead and crow's feet.
*Using 2% of the active for two months daily, women reported a decrease in wrinkles by 31% up to 100%.

Hexapeptide-9 - Goodie
WHAT-IT-DOES: cell-communicating ingredient
An anti-aging peptide that can visibly reduce the length and depth of wrinkles, at least according to its manufacturer. In vitro (meaning it was done in the lab, not on real people) studies show that it enhances epidermal regeneration, collagen type I and III synthesis as well as the synthesis of other important skin proteins.

Niacinamide - Superstar
ALSO-CALLED: vitamin B3, nicotinamide | WHAT-IT-DOES: cell-communicating ingredient, skin brightening, anti-acne, moisturizer/humectant
*A multi-functional skincare superstar with several proven benefits for the skin
*Great anti-aging, wrinkle smoothing ingredient used at 4-5% concentration
*Fades brown spots alone or in combination with amino sugar, acetyl glucosamine
*Increases ceramide synthesis that results in a stronger, healthier skin barrier and better skin hydration
*Can help to improve several skin conditions including acne, rosacea, and atopic dermatitis

Panthenol - Goodie
ALSO-CALLED: Pro-Vitamin B5 | WHAT-IT-DOES: soothing, moisturizer/humectant | IRRITANCY: 0 | COMEDOGENICITY: 0
An easy-to-formulate, commonly used, nice to have ingredient that’s also called pro-vitamin B5. As you might guess from the “pro” part, it’s a precursor to vitamin B5 (whose fancy name is pantothenic acid).
Its main job in skincare products is to moisturise the skin. It’s a humectant meaning that it can help the skin to attract water and then hold onto it. There is also research showing that panthenol can help our skin to produce more lovely lipids that are important for a strong and healthy skin barrier.

Saccharide Isomerate - Goodie
WHAT-IT-DOES: moisturizer/humectant
A 100% natural and plant-derived moisturizer that mimics the natural carbohydrate fraction found in the upper layer of the skin. Its special magic power is to bind to the skin stronger and longer than other moisturizer ingredients do so it can keep the skin hydrated longer than usual.


N-Acetyl Glucosamine - Goodie
WHAT-IT-DOES: skin-identical ingredient, skin brightening
An amino acid sugar that can be found in the skin and does there good and important things. One of them is that it's a precursor for the biosynthesis of superstar moisturizer, hyaluronic acid. So acetyl glucosamine itself is also an important skin-identical ingredient and natural moisturizing factor.
But that is not all, acetyl glucosamine has two other great properties proved by double-blind clinical trials. First, it's a promising ingredient against wrinkles: 2% can improve wrinkles, particularly in the eye area.

Sodium Hyaluronate - Goodie
WHAT-IT-DOES: skin-identical ingredient, moisturizer/humectant | IRRITANCY: 0 | COMEDOGENICITY: 0
It’s the - sodium form - cousin of the famous NMF, hyaluronic acid (HA). If HA does not tell you anything we have a super detailed, geeky explanation about it here. The TL; DR version of HA is that it's a huge polymer (big molecule from repeated subunits) found in the skin that acts as a sponge helping the skin to hold onto water, being plump and elastic. HA is famous for its crazy water holding capacity as it can bind up to 1000 times its own weight in water.

Apply serum after cleansing & toning gently to the face and neck in an upward motion morning and night . Best applied while skin is damp with water or toner. Allow to absorb/dry then follow with a moisturizer and sunscreen ( for daytime use) Avoid getting product into eyes. If pregnant or lactating consult doctor prior to use. A patch test is recommended when introducing a new product to your routine. Should the patch test show any adverse reaction do not continue to use product.

While immediate improvement may be seen in some areas, results are cumulative and improve with continual use and time.

Your opaque airless pump dispenser helps to keep air, light and other contaminants from coming into contact with your serum. This helps to prevent oxidation and helps to extend the life of your serum.

Once empty, your dispenser may be reused. Simply wash with gentle soap and water, push the plunger back down to the bottom and sterilize with Isopropyl alcohol before refilling.
