The Power of Peptides

What Peptides Can Do for Your Skin

Category : Skincare

Take a trip down the skincare aisle of your local drug store and you’ll be overwhelmed by various products. Add the ones you can find at the makeup counter in your favorite department store, as well as those made by companies with their own retail or mail-order sales, and it can be hard to know exactly which ones to buy.

The choice becomes especially overwhelming when you’re looking for anti-aging products to help you look your best. That’s why you need to focus on buying only anti-aging products with beneficial main ingredients like peptides.

Keep reading to learn more about peptides and how anti-aging products that incorporate them can really improve your skin.

What are Peptides?

If you’re like a lot of people interested in quality skin care products, there’s a good chance you’ve seen the term “peptides” before. Still, most people really don’t know exactly what that word means.

Simply put, a peptide is formed when two amino acids are bonded together to create one substance. More or less, a peptide is a simple type of protein and some products use more than two amino acid types to create a potentially beneficial peptide.

Not every peptide compound is created equal though. Some are used to help people burn fat, while others are commonly recommended to individuals who want to improve athletic performance or build muscle. Obviously these are used in supplement form, not topically.

Different types of peptides are used for skin care purposes, and there are many products out there incorporating them. You’ll find a lot of consumers and dermatologists who recommend them.

How Do They Work?

When you want the absolute best for your skin, you need to be shopping for companies using medical-grade peptides designed to tighten, firm and tone your skin. Without a long biology primer, peptide compounds (which are proteins, remember), can be beneficial in reducing skin damage and repairing some of the natural wrinkles that come with age.

Most products that contain any sort of peptide are designed for topical use. Generally, you’ll use these products once or twice per day just like you would use a moisturizer or any other type of skin care product.

Elite Serum Rx?

There are a lot of products out there containing peptides, but like most skin care products out there, there’s a good chance you’re not really getting everything you’re paying for. When you buy Elite Serum Rx, you get a product made with a concentrated variety of powerful, medical-grade skin care peptides.

Elite Serum Rx also contains haloxyl, argireline, matrixyl, inyline and eyeliss, making it one of the best eye cream products out there. Whether you’re fighting the first signs of aging, or you’re looking to turn back the hands of the clock as far as possible, Elite Serum Rx should be a major part of your daily skincare routine.

What’s in YOUR Eye Cream?

Category : Skincare

In today’s multi-billion dollar beauty industry, it’s easy to get overwhelmed by the amount of options on the market. Moisturizers, cleansers, face creams, eye creams – not only are the products seemingly endless, but so are the purposes behind them. Should you choose the anti-wrinkle cream, or the night repair moisturizer? While we can’t answer all your beauty questions, we at Elite Serum Rx can help you find the best eye cream to achieve the results you want.

Why do we need eye cream?

Eye creams are used to target a variety of beauty issues – aging-related or otherwise. The skin around our eyes is thin and delicate, making it extremely prone to dryness, as well as showing fatigue and aging. Common causes for using eye creams include:

  • Dark circles
  • Under eye puffiness
  • Fine lines and wrinkles

A lot of people think “but why can’t I just use a regular face moisturizer?” The answer is that eye creams are specially formulated for that sensitive skin around the eyes. They tend to be thicker than standard facial moisturizers, contain more oil and have a lot more targeted ingredients to combat the conditions mentioned above.

What makes it so effective?

Eye creams should contain anti-oxidants, cell-communicating ingredients and skin repair ingredients that soothe the skin and do not contain fragrances. Depending on the specific type of eye-area problem, you’ll want to choose an eye cream that has specific ingredients designed to address that problem.

For example, anti-aging cream should contain ingredients such as:

  • Hyaluronic acid. The fat cells around the eyes tend to fall first. This ingredient can plump up skin cells by drawing water from the air. It can actually hold up to 1,000 times its weight in water!
  • Retinol or neuropeptides. These are collagen-building ingredients derived from Vitamin A which stimulates cell turnover and collagen production. This makes ether a good choice for combating sun damage and fine lines, although peptides tend to be gentler on the dermis than retinoic acid.
  • Vitamins C and E. Along with Vitamin A, found in retinol, vitamins C and E are powerful tools against anti-aging. Vitamin C stimulates collagen production and elasticity of the skin, while vitamin E soothes the under eye area and protects it from damage.

Elite Serum Rx

You can find eye creams that work for multiple issues at once. Again, the key is to understand the ingredients’ functions to ensure you are using a product with the right formula for your needs. At Elite Serum Rx, we design our serum to target the signs of aging as well as reducing puffiness and dark circles. We use a unique and potent mix of medical-grade peptides which work together to improve your overall facial appearance.

Taking care of your skin, especially the delicate skin around your eyes, is an important part of anyone’s facial routine. Choose products with effective ingredients targeted to your needs, and follow the directions faithfully, to achieve the results that you want to see.
