Anti Wrinkle Serum with 10% Matrixyl 3000, 100% Hyaluronic Acid, Optiphen Plus – 1 fl oz

This skin care serum is made up of distilled water, hyaluronic acid (sodium hyaluronate), Argireline, Phenoxyethanol, and Caprylyl Glycol.  Please note that 100% hyaluronic acid actually means 1% weight/volume. This correlates to 10 grams of HA used per liter of distilled water. For some reason, this misnomer has been used for quite some time in the cosmetic industry. We use 10% Matrixyl 3000 (weight/volume), which correlates to 100 ml per liter of distilled water. This serum is paraben and sulfate free, 100% vegan, never tested on animals, and free of artificial fragrances and dyes.  

Here are just some of the benefits to using our wonderful serum:

• 100% vegan, no animal or animal by-products are used in the manufacturing of our hyaluronic acid or any other product

• Alcohol Free, we only use 100% distilled water in our serums

• Moisturizes and hydrates the skin

• Improves elasticity of skin

About the Ingredients:

Matrixyl 3000 (Palmitoyl Oligopeptide & Palmitoyl Tetrapeptide-7) is made up of peptides that promote collagen synthesis, nearly 

doubling the amount of collagen found in the skin. Collagen is the structural support located beneath the skin, making it firm.

Hyaluronic acid (Sodium Hyaluronate) is a naturally occurring substance formed in the human body. It is a glycosaminoglycan which is primarily found in connective, neural, and epithelial tissue (outer surface of the skin) where it acts as a cushioning and lubrication agent for our joints, nerves, hair, skin and eyes. HA has an especially important role in epithelial tissue because it promotes the growth of keratinocytes and retinoic acid (vitamin A metabolite), and it helps collagen synthesis. It is stored in large amounts between the spaces of skin cells. Here it provides moisture where it supplements the skin and improves elasticity and plumpness.  As we age our bodies start to produce less and less hyaluronic acid, which decreases moisture in our skin significantly. Applying hyaluronic acid topically is beneficial because it penetrates through the dead layer of the skin (stratum corner) and diffuses deeper into the skin. HA is unique in that it has the ability to hold in 1000 ml of water per gram of hyaluronic acid, giving it the capability to hold a lot of moisture in the skin. The benefits of using hyaluronic acid topically in a serum include increasing the skin’s moisture, elasticity, firmness, and plumpness. Helping to decrease fine lines and wrinkles, providing healthy and youthful looking skin. HA is good for all skin types including oily and combination skin. The serum can be used under a moisturizer for dryer skin, or on its own for oilier skin.

Phenoxyethanol is one of the best antimicrobial preservatives available. It is paraben and formaldehyde free and contains no formaldehyde donors. It is made up of phenoxyethanol. 

Caprylyl Glycol serves a dual purpose as a preservative against bacteria as well as a skin conditioning agent.

All of our serums are packaged in high quality glass bottles with dropper attachments. Plastic containers can allow oxygen molecules to enter the container, which can degrade the serum unnecessarily quickly. Plastic containers can sometimes react with certain cosmetic ingredients, causing plasticizers to leach onto the formula inside. Glass prevents all of this and also provides the added benefit of being environmentally friendly (glass is recycled into other glass while plastic is downgraded into a less stable form of plastic).

We pride ourselves in using only the highest quality ingredients as possible in our serums. All of our material comes from cGMP certified facilities that uphold the highest manufacturing standards. Our products are never tested on animals and are 100% vegan (please know that the term "Non-Animal Stabilized" DOES NOT mean that it is vegetarian or vegan).

All orders will be packaged shipped within 1 business day via USPS First Class Mail.
