Active ingredients:  

Matrixyl® 3000 is based on two peptides: palmitoyl tripeptide and a palmitoyl tetrapeptide. They work synergistically to mimic the appearance of this broken down collagen, causing your skin to react by producing more collagen, as well as elastin. Matrixyl 3000™ works to help skin regain its elasticity, become stronger, and look more youthful.

Palmitoyl tetrapeptide
Synthetic peptide that’s part of Matrixyl 3000, which also contains palmitoyl oligopeptide, and is believed to work as a skin-restoring ingredient with anti-ageing benefits. This peptide is composed of four amino acids plus fatty acid palmitic acid to enhance stability and penetration into the skin. Peptides have different functions on skin, and this particular peptide, on its own or as part of Matrixyl 3000, helps to replenish skin’s surface and calm visible signs of sensitisation. A synthetic peptide composed of four amino acids + palmitic acid. Proven to reduce factors in skin that trigger irritation and damage. Ongoing use helps restore a firmer feel and less lined appearance.

Palmitoyl Tripeptide
Palmitoyl tripeptide is a synthetic fatty acid-linked peptide that can help repair visible skin damage and strengthen skin’s underlying supportive elements. Reducing signs of sun damage like wrinkles and rough texture.  Helps strengthen skin’s underlying supportive elements. Backed by research for minimising the appearance of wrinkles. 

Collagen Saltwater Algae 
Collagen plays a crucial role in ensuring skin’s elasticity, mechanical resistance and tissue regeneration. Collagen production falls with age and by around 45 it may have fallen by up to 30%. Marine Collagen is a natural source of type 1 collagen which is easily assimilated by the body and is rich in glycine, proline and hydroxyproline, the main constituents of skin. Our Marine Collagen is derived from saltwater algae including Laminaria and Padina so it is suitable for vegans.

Vitamin A (Retinyl Palmitate) is great at unclogging pores, boosting collagen levels to reduce fine lines and speeding up cell renewal to even out discoloration and smooth the skin. Our Retinyl Palmitate is derived from organic carotenoids found in carrots and other yellow vegetables.

*MediMD recommends applying sunscreen during the day to protect the skin after morning use of Retinyl Palmitate based products.
Contains vitamin A not suitable for pregnancy.
