N-acetyl Carnosine
N-Acetyl-L-carnosine, or N-Acetylcarnosine (abbreviated NAC) is a dipeptide. It is similar to carnosine but more resistant to carnosinase degradation thanks to the addition of an acetyl group.N-Acetylcarnosine is a natural dipeptide containing histidine, which is the main source of L-carnosine in pharmacology. N-acetyl Carnosine/N-Acetylcarnosine is an effective ophthalmic drug with the potential to be used for human cataract.N-Acetylcarnosine is composed of the root word carn, meaning flesh, alluding to its prevalence in animal protein.A vegetarian (especially vegan) diet is deficient in adequate carnosine, compared to levels found in a standard diet.

Palmitoyl Tripeptide-38
Palmitoyl tripeptide-38 is an ingredient manufactured by the brand Sederma under the trade name MATRIXYL synthe’6. As with all peptides, it is a protein fragment that helps skin maintain its structure.
Studies relating specifically to palmitoyl tripeptide-38 have shown that it helps improve the appearance of multiple signs of aging, including fine lines, wrinkles, uneven skin tone, and dullness. This research also shows that palmitoyl tripeptide-38 is even more effective in this capacity when combined with other skin-beneficial ingredients such as antioxidants and hyaluronic acid.

Tripeptide-10 Citrulline
Tripeptide-10 citrulline is a new combination of active ingredient developed to slow down skin aging due to glycation of proteins.The Lys coating of the delivery system has the double role of inhibiting the maillard reaction and binding the liposomes to the skin,thus helping to release the active peptide providing elasticity and suppleness.

Acetyl Hexapeptide-8
Acetyl Hexapeptide-8 is one of the commonly used raw materials for high-end cosmetics. It’s other names are Argireline,Argirelin Acetate,Acetyl Hexapeptide-3.Acetyl Hexapeptide-8 effect is mainly to reduce wrinkles caused by facial expression muscle contraction, and has an ideal effect on removing wrinkles around the forehead or eyes.
Acetyl hexapeptide-8 is an advanced cosmetic core ingredient, supplements the small molecule collagen in the skin, and is also a biologically active peptide. It is a biologically active peptide, which can not only reduce the existing facial wrinkles, but also effectively prevent the generation of new wrinkles.

Palmitoyl Tetrapeptide-7
Palmitoyl Tetrapeptide-7 is also called Palmitoyl Tetrapeptide-3. Palmitoyl Tetrapeptide-7 is a synthetic peptide comprised of four amino acids that is used in beauty products and cosmetics to suppress the production of excess interleukins, the chemical messengers which trigger the body’s acute inflammatory response. This can lead to glycation damage, or the process by which glucose links with proteins and causes them to bind together, stiffening tissues. This negatively affects the skin’s support system, comprised of collagen, elastin and other proteins, and leads to wrinkles, sagging, and uneven skin tone (Source).

Trifluoroacetyl Tripeptide-2
Trifluoroacetyl Tripeptide-2 is also called Progeline. It is a biomimetic peptide for a protein inhibitor called progerin. Progerin appears when there is a mutation in our genes due to aging.Trifluoroacetyl Tripeptide-2 is a 3 amino acids peptide biomimetic of elafin that modulates progerin, a new senescence marker, for a complete remodelling effect and reduction of the appearance of wrinkles.

Palmitoyl Tripeptide-1
Palmitoyl Tripeptide-1 is also called Palmitoyl oligopeptide. It is a relatively new addition to the list of peptides that are used in skin care, some experts believe that the chains of amino acids communicate with the skin’s collagen and boost its production, which is a major factor in achieving smooth, wrinkle-free skin. Palmitoyl Tripeptide-1/Palmitoyl oligopeptide is most often found in anti-aging serums, moisturizing kits, and cosmetics.
