#AskLíkami: What are bio-intelligent ingredients and why are peptides so important?
Have you ever wondered what bio-intelligent ingredients are and how they can transform your skin? Today, we focus on these revolutionary components, with a special emphasis on peptides, an essential ingredient in modern skincare routines.
What are bio-intelligent ingredients?
Bio-intelligent ingredients are advanced components that work with the natural processes of your skin to provide specific benefits. They enhance cell communication, support natural regeneration processes, and offer a targeted approach to skin problems. For more information on our approach to bio-intelligent ingredients, check out our Quadri-complex, where bio-intelligence is one of the four pillars.
Can you give some examples of bio-intelligent ingredients?
Of course! Here are some commonly used bio-intelligent ingredients:
- Peptides: Stimulate collagen production and reduce collagen breakdown, leading to a stronger skin structure and reduction of wrinkles.
- Probiotics: Help balance the skin flora and strengthen the skin barrier, leading to healthier and better-protected skin.
- Retinol (Vitamin A): Promotes cell renewal and collagen production, making the skin smoother and more even.
- Hyaluronic Acid: Retains moisture in the skin, providing deep hydration and a plumper appearance.
- Phytosqualane: Deeply hydrates and strengthens the skin barrier, making the skin soft and supple.
What are peptides?
Peptides are small chains of amino acids that are essential for the structure and elasticity of our skin. They are the building blocks of proteins like collagen and elastin, which are crucial for a youthful appearance. As we age, the natural production of these proteins decreases, leading to wrinkles and sagging.
Why are peptides bio-intelligent?
Peptides are bio-intelligent because they stimulate the skin to produce more collagen and reduce collagen breakdown. This leads to a strengthened skin structure, improved texture and elasticity, and a reduction in fine lines and wrinkles. Their ability to specifically interact with the natural processes of the skin makes them a powerful bio-intelligent ingredient.
Where do the peptides in Likami products come from?
The peptides in our products are composed of amino acids of plant origin. These natural building blocks ensure a skin-friendly and sustainable approach to skincare. By using plant-based amino acids, we reduce the environmental impact and avoid the use of animal-derived ingredients. This makes our products not only effective but also ethical and environmentally responsible. Additionally, plant-based peptides are known for their high bioavailability and ability to easily penetrate the skin, providing deeper nourishment and enhanced results.
What are the benefits of peptides in skincare?
Peptides offer a wide range of benefits for the skin
- Anti-aging: Increased collagen production helps reduce wrinkles and fine lines.
- Skin Repair: Supports the skin's repair process, including DNA repair, making the skin healthier and more resilient.
- Improved Texture and Elasticity: Regular use can lead to smoother and firmer skin.
Which skin types benefit the most from peptides?
Peptides are suitable for all skin types, but they are particularly beneficial for people with signs of skin aging such as wrinkles and loss of elasticity. Peptides can also make a significant difference for people with damaged skin that needs repair.
