Peptides are basically the building blocks that make up protein. Like proteins, peptides are chains of two or more amino acids held together by peptide bonds (AKA amide bonds). They are smaller than proteins, but when peptides link together, they become the basis for proteins. In skin care, peptides prompt your cells to produce more collagen, which is the most abundant protein in the skin. That’s why you will often find them in anti-aging products intended to stimulate collagen production and fight fine lines and wrinkles. They increase hydration, prevent loss of firmness, dullness, discoloration and overall dryness while also reducing inflammation, and protecting against free radicals which allow damage from environment and the sun.
