The acne fighting ingredient you may not have heard of π¦ π€Ί
WHAT IS IT?
Oligopeptide-10 is an anti-microbial peptide derived from plant amino acids that can diminish the bacteria that contributes to acne.
WHAT DOES IT DO?
Oligopeptide-10 can bind to the membrane of the bacteria, causing a imbalance and ultimately death of the bacteria π¦ π€Ί
ARE THERE OTHER BENEFITS?
Due to the reduction of pro-inflammatory bacterial components, a reduction of redness that is commonly associated with many acne lesions may be appreciated
SALICYLIC ACID + OLIGOPEPTIDE-10
Oligopeptide-10 works synergistically with salicylic acid π¦Έπ¦Έπ½ββοΈ
The use of these as a duo can reduce the appearance of blemishes and red, blotchy spots.
HOW DO THEY WORK TOGETHER?
Salicylic acid acts as a keratolytic, which increases the shedding of skin cells that can block the pore.
This allows more oxygen in the acne lesion, enabling the Oligopeptide-10 access into the pore for an increased bacteriostatic effect.
