REPOST FROM BYRDIE: COPPER PEPTIDES ARE LIKE NATURE'S BOTOX, HERE'S HOW TO USE THEM

Copper peptides? What are they and why do we want them in our skincare? First of all, what the heck is a peptide?  In simple terms, peptides are the building blocks that make up proteins. They work to rebuild and repair damaged cells as well as signalling skin to produce collagen [slowing the aging process- thumbs up]. They essentially are like smart cars programmed to a specific address (the damaged cell) containing advanced technology to repair which is what makes these so unique. The article below gives a very detailed and accurate description of what copper peptides are and why they are good for your skin. In addition, they offer some product suggestions that contain copper peptides; however, we are partial to our super Serum 11 which contains a stable, encapsulated form of these copper peptides. Not only does it promote gene expression of collagen and elastin but, over time and repeated use, results have shown a 33% wrinkle reduction and 19% elasticity increase. Click here to get yours!
