RATIONALE AND OBJECTIVES

  • Peptides stimulate collagen neosynthesis and vitamin C is a well-recognized antioxidant with anti-aging properties.
  • Their formulation is critical for delivery across the stratum corneum.
  • An anti-aging formula has been developed to optimize the bioavailability of pure vitamin C at 10% concentration, combined with a biopeptide complex (rice and lupin), hyaluronic acid, and Vichy volcanic mineralizing water (Liftactiv Peptide-C [Vichy]).
  • Peptide-C is packaged in daily-dose amber glass ampoules requiring no preservatives.
