Elastic Skin Firming & Plumping Vegan Growth Factor Serum with Copper Peptides

A firming and plumping serum formulated to address dryness, signs of aging, and uneven texture. Copper and bio-hacking peptides work to visibly firm, tighten, and improve skin's elasticity, while wild yam and encapsulated vegan growth factors help plump and hydrate for a bouncier feel. Vegan collagen amino acids and ceramides reinforce the moisture barrier to keep hydration locked in. The formula is hypoallergenic, noncomedogenic, and suitable for sensitive and acne-prone skin.

The SMOOTH Dynamic Wrinkle Defense Serum with Copper Peptides + Retinol

Serum · 30 ingredients

A wrinkle-defense serum formulated for those concerned with fine lines, loss of firmness, and dryness. A multi-peptide complex with copper peptides works to reduce the appearance of fine lines while supporting elasticity for smoother, firmer-looking skin, and centella exosomes help boost moisture and reinforce the barrier. Vegan silk protein—a plant-based protein—forms a breathable layer to help shield skin from environmental stressors and support overall resilience. The formula is fragrance-free, making it well-suited for those seeking an anti-aging routine without added sensitizers.
