Best peptides for skin- Best Peptides for Anti Aging are broken down into several different categories for ease of reading.
Best peptides for skin depends on what specific skin care concern you are looking to address.
Peptides and your skin. Peptides are basically long chains of amino acids that are linked together by peptide bond. Usually more than 20. Peptides are larger in size and cannot get passed the skin barrier.
– 2~50 molecules are considered to be peptides
-50 or more are considered protein
Oligopeptides- Best Peptides for Anti Aging:
When reading labels that have peptides, the best types of peptides for anti aging are oligopeptides. These are basically small chains of peptides. These are usually considered 2-30 number of amino acids.
For example, when you come across words such as dipeptide (2 ), tripeptide (3), you know these are oligopeptides.
Oligopeptides are considered the best peptides for anti aging because they are small enough to get passed the skins barrier.
Oligopeptides can help with moisturizing drier skin, skin regeneration, and can be an anti inflammatory.
How oligopeptides work in the skin is they work as messengers in the skin to send a direct “task” to the skins cells or telomeres.
Peptides for Wrinkles:
There are certain types of peptides that can help with wrinkles in that they help stimulate the fibroblasts to create new collagen and elastin. Because they are smaller in size, they are able to penetrate the skins barrier.
Pentapeptides are peptides are commonly found in anti aging skin care products such as palmitoyl pentapeptide-4 , Palmitoyl Tripeptide (Matrixl 3000).

ANTI-AGING for Wrinkles Around the Eyes
These help more with wrinkle reduction so if you already have existing wrinkles or fine lines, these are helpful because not only does it stimulate collagen and elastin production, it also helps increase the level of hyaluronic acid in the skin. This can help plump up the skin which can minimize the existing fine lines and wrinkles.
This is basically a fatty acid + five amino acids to work in the lower levels of your skin.
Hexapeptide (trade name SYN AKE) 6 amino acids . This peptides are “signaling peptides”. this as “botox in a jar or botox The claim is that it works similarly to botox where it “freezes the muscle”. The signaling peptides are said to reduce transmission signals between the nerves and the muscles.
This is a synthetic peptide that is said to be a protein fragment of the venom of the poisonous Malaysian Temple Viper snake. It is said that this peptide helps relax the muscle.
Personally, I have tried several anti aging skin care creams that contained this specific peptide, and I did not find any significant changes in my skin.
Copper Peptides: also help with reducing inflammation, increasing collagen and elastin production, can serve as an antioxidant, and help heal the skin. **Please note that those who are sensitive to copper may want to test patch first. These type of peptides basically have trace elements of copper attached to the amino acids.
Hexapeptide-8 (trade name Argireline)- can also be found under Acetyl Hexapeptide-8-this also helps relax the skin. The beauty industry sometimes refers to these peptides as “botox in a bottle or botox in a jar”. This peptide is also said to help the skin have increased hydration, especially when linked to a humectant such as hyaluronic acid. It also may assist with collagen production and and help with dynamic wrinkles.
Best Peptide Cream for Anti Aging?
I don’t know if there is any one size fits all best peptide cream for anti aging. Everyone has different skin types and everyone uses different anti aging skin care products.
This peptide cream for anti aging has many of the peptides mentioned as well as a good amount of humectants and pre/probiotics for the skins microbiome.
**Please be aware that for those who tend to break out easily or tend to have oilier skin, this may not be the best peptide cream for anti aging and wrinkles.
You can still get the best peptides for anti aging in a lighter formulation or a completely different formulation. These are mentioned in the video.
This peptide cream is called the Expert Lifting Cream by Biotoc and has several different peptides that are higher on the ingredients list. Typically, you will see some of the peptides on the lower end of the ingredients list.
This product is from the a Korean Advanced Skin Care company.
This peptide lifting cream has the following peptides:
-Copper Peptides-aid in healing the skin and promoting collagen and elastin
-Palmitoyl Pentapeptide -4 – stimulates fibroblast to create collagen and elastin in the skin.
– Acetyl Hexapeptide-8 – Helps relax facial muscles (botox in a jar)
-Lactobacillus- Prebiotic -helps increase hydration on the skin
Please note that this is also formulated to be used in conjunction the the Biotoc microneedling pen and their 3x cross linked serum.
This serum has an antioxidant called Astaxanthin which is 6000x more stronger than Vitamin C and more stable than vitamin C. It actually increases its antioxidant activity when exposed to blue and red light.

**Please also note that when using peptides, depending on what type of peptide, they are not recommended to be used with L-AscorbicAcid and / or AHAs. Please refer to your skin care professional when contemplating mixing skin care products to avoid skin reactions and neutralizing ingredients efficacy.
