"At 40, my skin is less dry and plumper" : this Korean serum with 12 peptides gives the impression of having been rejuvenated

There is the time when small wrinkles only appear when you smile. And then, one fine morning, some obviously decide to stay even when we are no longer moving (thank you very much). This is exactly when the words peptides, collagen and firmness suddenly start to become a lot more interesting.

Abib’s new peptide serum has just arrived on YesStyle with a formula that isn’t really about half-measures: 12 peptides in a single bottle.

12 peptides to target fine lines without collecting serums

Yes, twelve peptides in one serum. Among them, we find in particular the copper peptide, star of the formula, but also peptides such as argireline and those which make up matrixyl 3000. Their interest? They are combined in this formula to target fine lines, loss of firmness and lack of bounce (and fortunately, no need to remember their long names).

The idea behind this accumulation? Working on several issues at once: fine lines, loss of firmness, less supple skin and lack of bounce. And that’s precisely what we like about this type of formula: no need to layer four different serums before going to sleep (our bathroom is already full enough as it is).

The copper peptide is clearly the star of the bottle

It is he who gives this famous bluish tint to many treatments in this category. Copper Tripeptide-1, also called copper peptide, is particularly sought after in formulas intended to support the appearance of firmness and bounce. Abib also highlights a copper peptide advertised at 98% purity.

Small important detail: this obviously does not mean that 98% of the serum is composed of copper peptide (otherwise, good luck to your skin). This percentage corresponds to the purity of the ingredient used.

An anti-aging formula that doesn’t forget tight skin

And luckily, Abib didn’t just pile on the peptides. The serum also contains ceramide NP, ectoine, panthenol, glycerin and hyaluronic acid.

Particularly interesting ingredients when the skin becomes drier with age or starts to give that impression of a slightly “crumpled” face when you wake up. The texture is advertised as milky, light and non-sticky. So even those who hate thick serums can use it morning or evening before their cream. And there’s no need to transform your routine into a laboratory: a few drops are enough.

What are copper peptides used for?

Copper peptide is used in some anti-aging treatments to help improve the appearance of firmness and plumpness. It is often combined with other peptides, like here. The results are obviously not immediate. Regular use remains necessary. And no, it’s not the cosmetic equivalent of a facelift (we would have liked it).

Can you use a peptide serum every day?

Yes, peptides can generally be incorporated into a daily routine. The most important thing is not to accumulate ten assets simply because they are trendy. This serum already contains a lot of different ingredients. A moisturizer on top is more than enough. And in the morning, we obviously keep our SPF on.

Is this serum suitable for dry skin?

Its formula contains several interesting ingredients for the skin barrier and hydration. Ceramide NP, panthenol, ectoine and hyaluronic acid notably provide greater comfort. On very dry skin, you will still need to apply a cream afterwards. The serum remains a step of care, not the whole routine.
