What are the results of the clinical testing for Peptides Extreme Fermeté?
Peptides Extreme Fermeté has been clinically tested under dermatological control with a diverse group of participants, with ages spanning 20s to 60s, over 28 days of use. In as little as 7 days:
- Wrinkle depth, including fine lines and medium and deep wrinkles, decreased by 32%.
- Hyperpigmentation was reduced by 53%.
- Skin texture was improved by 63%.
- Transepidermal water loss decreased by 21%.
What are peptides, and why do they matter in skincare?
Peptides are short chains of amino acids, the building blocks of proteins like collagen and elastin, which help keep skin firm, smooth and healthy. As the natural production of collagen and elastin decreases over time, peptides in skincare function as signaling molecules that help activate stimulation of these proteins. Skin is firmer, more hydrated and resilient, and visible signs of aging are reduced.
What is the difference between Doré’s BioComplexe PX27 and retinol?
Both BioComplexe PX27 and retinol help improve skin firmness and reduce signs of aging but they work in different ways, and they’re not the same. BioComplexe PX27 is a naturally derived peptide complex that helps skin create new collagen. It’s gentle, non-irritating, and more suitable for sensitive skin. Retinol is a form of vitamin A that helps speed up skin cell turnover and prevents collagen breakdown. It can be highly effective but it may cause irritation, dryness, or sensitivity, especially when first starting out.
Does BioComplexe PX27 use natural ingredients?
Yes. The PX27 in our BioComplexe is derived from natural silk, created by upcycling discarded silk cocoons using only silk protein, water, and salt. The complex also contains other natural ingredients.
Is the Peptides Extreme Fermeté Firming Collagen Serum safe for daytime application and sun exposure?
Formulated with ingredients that are generally well tolerated for daytime use, Peptides Extreme Fermeté can be used morning or evening. In a clinical study, participants reported no increased sensitivity to the sun while using this product. In case of any concerns, we always recommend testing any new product on a patch of skin such as your wrist before applying liberally to your face, or consulting with your dermatologist first. We always recommend the use of an SPF during the day, regardless of whether or not you’re using this product.
Will the Peptides Extreme Fermeté Fiming Collagen Serum irritate my skin?
Our collagen-boosting essence is formulated for all skin types, including those with sensitive and stressed skin, and powered by non-irritating ingredients such as Panthenol and Aspen Bark Extract. Panthenol is a gentle ingredient that calms and restores the skin barrier while delivering lasting hydration. Aspen Bark Extract is a gentle plant based exfoliant that naturally soothes and smooths skin without irritation. In case of any concerns, we always recommend testing any new product on a patch of skin such as your wrist before applying liberally to your face, or consulting with your dermatologist first.
