Peptides are small protein building blocks that occur everywhere in our body. Without them, nothing would actually run smoothly in our organism, because they take over important tasks. In skin care, peptides can penetrate the outer skin layer and bind to the connective tissue cells (fibroblasts). Extensive studies have shown that peptides even influence collagen production, making the skin firmer and plumper. There are countless types of peptides or groups of peptides, all with different structures, functions and properties. For peptides to work, they need special conditions and the right composition or combination of special amino acids. The unique complex of active ingredients at La Vifolie is the result of intensive research. They give the skin a "boost" and are said to reduce small wrinkles around the eyes in particular and improve skin elasticity.
