Face and neck firming care with teff natural peptides

It is well known that skin ageing causes a decline in collagen production and flattening of dermal-epidermal junction (DEJ) which leads to a decrease in structural support, strength, elasticity, and the appearance of fatigued, saggy, and wrinkled skin. Neck and nasolabial fold skin sites have fragile skin which requires specific care. NaturePep® Teff (INCI name: Hydrolyzed Eragrostis Tef Seed Extract) was specifically designed to target delicate skin sites such as neck and nasolabial folds, which require special care. This natural peptide technology provides clinically proven skin anti-ageing benefits via a multitargeted biological mechanism of action. It targets the dermal-epidermal junction area, which is significantly affected during the ageing process. NaturePep® Teff stimulates the production of collagens and reinforces DEJ to strengthen skin structural support, integrity, firmness, elasticity and visibly rejuvenates the appearance of aged, fatigued skin. Clinical efficacy studies demonstrate that after only 28 days of treatment, neck skin looks visibly firmer, toned, and more revitalised, while nasolabial folds are noticeably diminished and show a smoother skin texture.

In the Beauty and Personal Care Industry there is an increasing shift towards effective antiageing and firming products with proven benefits driven by evolving consumer needs. Besides chronological ageing, the extrinsic factors such as changing lifestyle, UV exposure, environmental pollution, lack of sleep, stress and genetics are main factors which cause skin to age and lose its firmness, elasticity, structural support, and integrity.1 New consumer insights and scientific studies on how ageing is perceived have now concluded that the neck skin appearance and nasolabial fold areas contribute much higher weightage to overall perception of ageing than the crow’s feet wrinkles and fine lines. These sites have thin and fragile skin and are often neglected from daily routines.3

NaturePep® Teff (INCI name: Hydrolyzed Eragrostis Tef Seed Extract) was specifically designed to address fragile skin areas such as neck and nasolabial folds. This natural peptide technology is obtained using vegetable superfood teff seed protein and a proprietary manufacturing process which allows for the creation of low average molecular weight peptides for enhanced skin bioavailability and multi-targeted biological activity. This technology is clinically proven to increase the production of collagens and reinforce the dermal-epidermal junction (DEJ) to enhance skin firmness, tonicity and elasticity on neck and visibly reduce nasolabial folds, volume and wrinkle depth in only 28 days.
