FAQs
What is Peptide Moisture Defense?
A peptide-infused facial moisturizer with acetyl-glutathione, hyaluronic acid precursors, L-retinol, and plant extracts. It's designed to support smooth, supple-looking skin and works as both a daytime moisturizer and overnight cream. Free from parabens, synthetic dyes, and artificial fragrance.
What do the L-pentapeptides do in this formula?
They're one of three featured actives alongside acetyl-glutathione and acetyl-carnosine. Together with vitamin-rich plant oils and antioxidants, they contribute to the moisturizer's hydration and skin-texture benefits.
How do I apply this moisturizer?
After cleansing and toning, apply a small amount to your face and neck. Pat gently around the eyes. Give it about 2 minutes to absorb before makeup in the morning or layering with other products at night. Safe for twice-daily use.
Can I use this with a vitamin C serum?
Yes, it's designed for layering with vitamin A or C serums. Apply your serum first, let it absorb, then follow with this moisturizer. The richer texture seals everything in.
How long before I see results?
You'll feel the hydration and velvety texture right away. Visible changes in skin smoothness and overall appearance develop over weeks of consistent twice-daily use. Individual results vary depending on skin type and starting condition.
Can I use this around my eyes?
The suggested use includes gently patting it around the eyes. Use a small amount and avoid getting product directly in your eyes.
Is this moisturizer safe for sensitive skin?
It's free from parabens, synthetic dyes, and artificial fragrance, and the scent comes from naturally derived essential oils at low concentrations. A patch test is still a good idea if your skin tends to react, and discontinue use if irritation develops.
How does this compare to prescription retinoids?
This is an over-the-counter moisturizer with L-retinol, not a prescription-strength retinoid. It combines the vitamin A with peptides, antioxidants, and moisturizing ingredients for a gentler daily-use formula. If you're considering prescription options, that's a conversation for your dermatologist.
What does the acetyl-glutathione do?
Acetyl-glutathione is a featured antioxidant in this formula, listed alongside idebenone and vitamin-rich plant oils. The acetylated form contributes to the moisturizer's overall protective and conditioning benefits.
How should I store this moisturizer?
Keep it in a cool, dry place out of direct heat and sunlight. The L-retinol and antioxidants in the formula hold up best when you're not subjecting them to temperature swings.
