Ingredient Deep Dive Peptide: what does this trendy ingredient really do?

There is a lot of talk about peptides at the moment, and they are also appearing more and more frequently in skin care products, but what exactly are peptides and how do they work in skin care? The versatile molecule promises optimal skin health, intensive hydration and a plumper, more youthful complexion. Find out more about peptides in skin care here.

What are peptides?

Peptides are short chains of amino acids, the building blocks of proteins. They play a key role in many biological processes, including the formation and structure of skin proteins such as collagen, elastin and keratin. Peptides are widely used in skin care due to their ability to strengthen, repair and regenerate skin structure. Peptides act as building blocks that can support various biological functions. Similar to hyaluronic acid, peptides are natural components of our body. They play a central role in skin tissue by stimulating collagen production, thus helping to maintain skin structure and elasticity. Peptides can also have antioxidant properties that help neutralize free radicals. By protecting against oxidative stress, the skin stays healthy and radiant for longer. In addition, peptides help to retain moisture in the skin, reduce inflammation, support wound healing and help keep the skin looking youthful and healthy. Peptides can not only act externally, but also influence epigenetic processes. They can positively alter gene expression to promote skin renewal and improve the appearance of skin over time. However, as we age, the body produces fewer peptides, which can lead to a loss of firmness and moisture, which manifests as fine lines, wrinkles, and a dull complexion.

How do peptides work in skin care?

Peptides offer both short- and long-term benefits to the skin. With an immediate effect, they provide visible firming, radiant and plump skin. In the long term, peptides support the skin's natural barrier function, reduce water loss and improve elasticity, making the skin less susceptible to aging and wrinkles.

Is there a difference between different peptide formulations?

Not all peptide formulations are the same. High-quality formulations contain peptides in optimal concentrations and with different molecular weights to be effective both on the surface of the skin and in deeper layers of the skin. Choosing a serum with the right formulation can make a big difference in the effectiveness of your skin care routine.

One of the most advanced peptides on the skin care market is Pentapeptide-48, also known as Royal Epigen P5 ® . The biologically active peptide consists of a combination of valuable amino acids that vitalize skin cells and stimulate regeneration and collagen formation. Based on epigenetics, this peptide imitates royal jelly from bees to maximize its positive effect on the skin. Royal Epigen P5 ® is completely vegan and sets completely new standards in medical beauty care. It gives the skin a youthful glow and, thanks to the latest manufacturing technologies, significantly slows down the aging process of the skin. In clinical studies, Royal Epigen P5 ® stimulated skin renewal, which led to a rapid increase in skin smoothness.* In addition, the peptide improved the evenness of the complexion in women with uneven skin tone within just 28 days.

What makes ROYAL unique and how does it work?

Royal Epigen P5 ® is the main active ingredient in the Dr. Tonar Cosmetics ROYAL serum. It has an immediate lifting effect, optimizes cell function and has an exceptionally intensive anti-aging effect. ROYAL visibly tightens and firms the skin and ensures an even, fine-pored and optimally moisturized complexion. The immediate effect of the serum is complemented by the long-term effect, which achieves targeted anti-aging effects through the regeneration of the deeper skin structure. In addition to the unique active ingredient Royal Epigen P5 ®, the serum contains ectoin, glycoin and oligo-hyaluronic acid, which further strengthen the health of the skin.

Application of the ROYAL Intensive Serum

The serum is best applied evenly to the face, neck and décolleté once a day and gently tapped in. After a short exposure time, other care products can be applied. The ROYAL intensive serum is ideal for quickly and visibly improving the skin for special occasions. It provides an immediate lifting effect and a fresh, radiant appearance.

ROYAL LUXURY AGELESS GLOW SERUM

Peptides are more than just ingredients in skin care products - they are key factors in skin health and beauty. Their ability to stimulate collagen, moisturize, fight oxidative damage and influence epigenetic processes makes them a valuable addition to the skin care routine for people of all ages.
