Most peptides are unable to pass through the top layers of skin, unless they are attached to a fatty acid. The new modified pentapeptide has been clinically proven to stimulate collagen and elastin formation and to help produce younger-looking skin.
Using this important information, Olay scientists combined this pentapeptide (palmitoyl pentapeptide-3), vitamin B3, pro-vitamin B5, vitamin E, allantoin, and green tea extract to create the Amino-Peptide Complex in Olay Regenerist.According to scientists, the complex effectively boosts the natural surface cell turnover one cell at a time, without compromising the skin’s barrier.
