PeptAlde 4.0 is a collection of four
natural, multifunctional rice peptides
discovered through the use of artificial
intelligence. The peptides help protect
against aging and chronic low levels of
inflammation. They also aid in skin moisturization,
body firming, improving skin
stretchability and delivering anti-irritation
benefits to the scalp. In skin care applications,
PeptAlde 4.0 helps improve
the stiffening of the cellular envelope to
strengthen the stratum corneum while
ultimately helping to restore good barrier
function. To prevent the miniaturization
of the hair bulb, PeptAlde 4.0 helps
to block the liberation of the degradation
enzymes (elastase) to help protect
and strengthen the dermis and the hair
follicle. For the body, it was found to
increase skin moisture and skin comfort
when formulated in a body lotion at 2%.
It also helps improve skin firmness and
suppleness.
Also new is Phytofirm Biotic, a soybean
extract bio-fermented by the Lactobacillus
plantarum strain. Rich in peptides and
lactic acid, it helps rejuvenate the youthful
appearance of the skin and improves jawline
thickness and elasticity by increasing
the production of collagen I, collagen V
and elastin.
Mimiskin is a biodegradable film-forming
technology based on lipid particles that

serums, facial creams and primers—to address
anti-pollution, breathability, cleansing,
hydration and skin radiance concerns.
