CAFFEOYL SH-HEPTAPEPTIDE-13

Description

Caffeoyl SH-Heptapeptide-13 is an innovative peptide complex combining the antioxidant properties of caffeic acid with a targeted heptapeptide sequence. This advanced ingredient is designed to address multiple aspects of skin aging and protection. The caffeoyl component, derived from caffeic acid, provides potent antioxidant benefits, helping to neutralize free radicals and reduce oxidative stress on the skin. The SH-Heptapeptide-13 portion is a carefully engineered sequence of seven amino acids, specifically formulated to enhance skin firmness and elasticity.

This peptide complex works synergistically to stimulate collagen production, improve skin barrier function, and promote cellular repair mechanisms. It has been shown to enhance the skin's natural defense against environmental stressors, including UV radiation and pollution. Clinical studies have demonstrated its efficacy in reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, improving skin texture, and enhancing overall skin tone and radiance. Caffeoyl SH-Heptapeptide-13 is well-tolerated by most skin types and can be effectively incorporated into various skincare formulations, including serums, creams, and targeted treatments for aging skin concerns.
