What are peptides? Peptides are short chains of amino acids that are the building blocks of proteins in our skin. They play a key role in maintaining youthful, elastic, and healthy skin by stimulating the production of collagen and elastin. How do peptides work in cosmetics? Peptides act as signaling molecules that "tell" skin cells to produce more collagen, elastin, and other important proteins. Due to their small size, they easily penetrate the deep layers of the skin and begin to work at the cellular level. The main benefits of peptides for the skin Wrinkle reduction — peptides help smooth fine lines and deep wrinkles Increasing elasticity — stimulates the production of collagen and elastin Improving texture — makes skin smoother and more even Barrier strengthening — protects the skin from external influences Accelerates recovery — helps skin regenerate faster Types of peptides in cosmetics There are several types of peptides, each of which performs its own function: Signal peptides — stimulate collagen production Neurotransmitter peptides — act as a gentler alternative to Botox Transport peptides — deliver micronutrients to skin cells How to use products containing peptides To achieve maximum effect: Apply products containing peptides to clean skin. Use them regularly, morning and/or evening. Apply moisturizer first. Be patient — results will appear within 4-8 weeks Peptides in Lumiskin products Our range includes products with innovative peptide complexes that help your skin stay young, supple and radiant.
