They could charge much more for this serum; it is very effective. La Deessa products haven’t disappointed me yet: powerful ingredients without causing harsh dryness or redness to the skin. Like their retinol, Vitamin C, and other Le Deessa serums,this Peptide serum cause results of clearer, smoother more even skin the next day and offers long-term benefits. I was pretty excited to see that La Deessa made a Peptide eye cream.
APPLICATION:
There is no scent, and the serum is almost transparent. It applies evenly and smoothly with a consistency thicker than water but thinner than a gel. I found it best to allow about 15 minutes for dry-down before applying makeup, it is not sticky or greasy but does take a while to absorb. I also found out it doesn’t take much product to cover the eye area; one pump is enough for the eyes and the area above the eyebrows, which I like to apply the serum to as well. If I pump out too much (which is easy to do, the pump was a little tricky on my bottle and sometimes squirts product), I also apply it to my temple area. Lightly pat the product on with your pinky.
The serum is primarily intended for the delicate skin around the eyes but can also be used on the face. So I apply serum to areas I would like some support against sagging including my forehead, the nasal fold lines, and the corners of the mouth which tend to droop on me.
THE INGREDIENTS AND HOW THEY HELP ANTI-AGING
The ingredient “Peptide” is frequently included in skin care products but its purpose is sometimes vague. In this case, the Peptide in the La Deessa The Peptide Eye Serum encourages the production of two essential collagens: collagen 1 and collagen 111. Collagen 1 forms the collagen fibers which heal skin problems such as scars, and it builds the dermis layer of the skin. It is a common collagen. Collagen 111 is a complex collagen often found near collagen 1 and is a connective tissue collagen. The Peptide also causes the production of elastin fibroblasts which is the active cell framework that supports collagen cells by giving them a “kick-start” to go into repair response activation mode, as well as supporting collagen structures to keep skin from getting saggy.
Other Active Ingredients
Supporting ingredients can make or break a Peptide serum to help aid in skin regeneration and anti-aging. In addition to the Peptide, there are essential vitamins including A, B1, B2, B6, B12, C & E. Vitamin B’s are becoming more popular in anti-aging skin care, I like them because they fade adult acne scars and brown spots.
Supporting Ingredients
Aloe and Hyaluronic Acid both have short-term and long-term skin benefits. Aloe soothes the skin and penetrates the skin and supports skin cell reproduction. Hyaluronic Acid plumps the skin on contact giving it a dewy look and also helps the active ingredients sink deeper into the skin, which in this case, helps create collagen and supporting structures at a deeper level which results in less skin sagging.
RESULTS: After about two weeks of use, the delicate skin on my undereye area feels stronger, and the lines are less noticeable. Collagen builds over time, and I am to find a product that can strengthen the support of the skin around my eyes without irritating my sensitive eyes.
CONCLUSION: Great product, no irritation or redness, powerful but non-drying. The pump was fussy on mine, but not a deal breaker for me. Good product for a great price.
