This anti-aging serum is formulated around Acetyl Hexapeptide-8 and Palmitoyl Pentapeptide-4 to soften the look of wrinkles and hydrate skin. This anti-aging serum is formulated around Palmitoyl Tripeptide-38 and Hyaluronic Acid to soften the look of wrinkles and refine skin texture. Acetyl Hexapeptide-8 Palmitoyl Pentapeptide-4 Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Glycerin Hyaluronic Acid Benzyl Alcohol Dehydroacetic Acid Acetyl Hexapeptide-8, Palmitoyl Pentapeptide-4, Aloe Barbadensis Leaf, Glycerin, Hyaluronic Acid, Benzyl Alcohol, Dehydroacetic Acid Water Hydroxypropyl Cyclodextrin Palmitoyl Tripeptide-38 Water, Glycerin, Hydroxypropyl Cyclodextrin, Palmitoyl Tripeptide-38, Aloe Barbadensis Leaf, Hyaluronic Acid, Benzyl Alcohol, Dehydroacetic Acid These ingredients are found in both products. Ingredients higher up in an ingredient list are typically present in a larger amount. Aloe Barbadensis Leaf is a plant material from the leaves of the aloe, Aloe barbadensis, Liliaceae Aloe leaves contain the antioxidants Vitamins A, C, and E. These vitamins neutralize free radicals. It also contains sugars in the form of monosaccharides and polysaccharides, folic acid, choline, many common minerals such as calcium, 12 anthraquinones, fatty acids, amino acids, and Vitamin B12. Polysaccharides help hydrate your skin by mimicking your skin's natural carbohydrates. Aloe leaves contain many components that are known to help reduce irritation and itchiness. These include vitamins, amino acids, polysaccharides, and more. The high water content of aloe also helps give a cooling effect. This makes aloe an effective sunburn reliever. Despite helping heal sunburns, aloe does not protect your skin against UV damage. Aloe should not replace your sunscreen. Benzyl Alcohol is an aromatic alcohol with several roles: it's a preservative, solvent, and mild fragrance component with a floral scent. This ingredient has been deemed safe for use in cosmetic formulations at concentrations up to 5%, and up to 10% in hair dyes. You'll typically see 0.5-2% in most rinse-off or leave-on products. As a preservative, it works by disrupting the membrane of microbial proteins. This helps keep bacteria and fungi from growing in your products. The sensitization picture is actually quite assuring as well:of nearly 71,000 patients patch tested with benzyl alcohol, only 0.21% showed a positive reaction with most of them being weakly positive. This led researchers to conclude that benzyl alcohol cannot be regarded as a significant contact allergen. It is worth noting this ingredient is classified as one of the EU's regulated fragrance allergens and restricted to 1% in finished products. Labels must also declare it in concentrations above 0.001% in leave-on products and 0.01% in rinse-off products. At concentrations around 5%, localized redness and itching can appear as a direct irritant response and not as a true allergic reaction. Dehydroacetic Acid is a synthetic preservative that keeps your products safe from microbes. As an organic acid, it penetrates microbial cell walls and disrupts cellular metabolism. This makes it effective against bacteria, yeast, and mold. It is effective at low concentrations (<0.6%). Clinical studies have found it to be non-irritating, non-sensitizing, and non-photosensitizing. Glycerin (or glycerol) is a compound naturally found in your skin. It's a powerhouse humectant that pulls water into the stratum corneum. Topically, glycerin does several things at once: Your skin makes glycerin on its own (mostly from sebaceous oil breakdown) and shuttles it to your outermost layer of skin, or your epidermis, via aquaporin-3. Aquaporin-3 is a transporter that is essential for normal skin hydration, elasticity, and re
