I bet you’ve seen all those anti-ageing ads on TV, in the newspapers and on the internet that pop up from nowhere all trying to convince you to try their skin care products. The big question is that, are these anti-ageing ads really true? There have been discussions about whether or not these anti-ageing skin care products are really successful in helping fight the normal skin ageing process. Physicians still question the effectivity of the products in anti-ageing ads that cosmetic companies claim really work. Amidst all these skepticisms, should we believe all the publicity?
The newest ingredient featured in almost all the anti-ageing ads is the pentapeptides. They work by renewing the skin’s outermost layer revealing radiantly younger skin from underneath. It stimulates the production of collagen helping in the reduction of fine lines and wrinkles.
Collagen works with another type of protein, keratin, to provide skin with elasticity, strength and resilience. The problem occurs when a person ages. As people age, collagen production decreases causing the unwanted wrinkles and deep lines. This is where the new star of the products comes, pentapeptides. It is a key element in almost all the leading skin care products like face creams which promise skin rejuvenation in many anti-ageing ads.
One product that has been in many anti-ageing ads showed excellent results was the popular Strivectin-SD. This was a cream supposedly meant for the repair of stretch marks but women started putting it on their faces and it worked. Some people say that it took years out of their old faces. Consumers say in response to its anti-ageing ads campaign, “Isn’t this better than Botox?” was a loud, “Yes!” because for only $135.00 per 6-ounce tube you can have visible results as opposed to a hefty $400.00 per Botox injection.
Some other popular brands of these peptide-containing anti-ageing skin care products which has been promoted in several anti-ageing ads include Oil of Olay’s Regenerist, Principal Secret’s Reclaim, and Avon’s Anew Clinical Line and Wrinkle Corrector, to name a few, all out in the market at affordable prices. These products guarantee visible results on your skin in 12 weeks’ time of constant use.
Whether you want to try your hands onto these pentapeptide-containing anti-aging skin care products or not, it’s your choice. But for me personally, as long as I know they’re safe for me I will try them on.
Here are some great selections for anti-ageing skin products that have been promoted by several anti-ageing ads: Wrinkle Contol Intensely Lifting Eye Gel with Revolox for $19.99 per 5 ounces, Hydroderm for $79 per ounce, Regenerist by Olay $18.00 per 1.7 ounces, and Wrinkle Relax by Doctor’s Dermatologic Formula for $75 per 0.5 ounce.
