Reading a peptide claim carefully

Start with the named ingredient, then ask what evidence supports the finished product.

Light and reflections through clear glass

“Peptide” names a broad ingredient category. It is not a result you can expect from every product carrying the word.

Find the specific name

In Ozera's range, you will find Copper Lysinate/Prolinate in 001, Acetyl Tetrapeptide-5 in 002 and Hexapeptide-11 in 003. Those are different entries in different finished formulas.

A category name can introduce a product. The complete list is where you can see what that introduction refers to.

Separate the ingredient from the product

Evidence about an ingredient is not automatically evidence about every formula containing it. The same caution applies to a supplier's description, a social video or a result reported by someone using several products.

Look for a clear connection between the claim being made and the product being sold. A precise-sounding explanation is not the same thing as that connection.

Choose a place in your routine

Begin with the kind of product you want: cream, eye gel or evening serum. Then read the list, directions and warnings. You do not need to collect several peptide products simply because they share a category.

Explore the ingredients in our four formulas.
