I used to be crazy about peptides but lately I feel like I’m just wasting my money. I’ve used all of it over the course of 2+ years & just don’t see a single result. After really digging through the literature and studies I’m convinced 99% of them do nothing more than hydrate. Unless it has a delivery system like the copolymer thing, I’m not convinced it gets into the skin and goes where it needs go. I wish there were peptides that have proven studies instead of the manufacture claims. Til then I’ll still use up what I have but feel like my peptides phase is complete lol
I just listened to a doctor saying the same thing (Claudia Glows had her on her channel, Dr. Ania), she said it really depends on the formulation and vehicle, and that ingredients are not everything. She was recommending Alastin for peptides that have been proved to work... What are you using and think really made an impact, if you don't mind? Thank you!
I’m also firmly in the unconvinced category re peptides, esp for collagen and elastin building which is my main goal. Seems like a decade ago when they were newer, most people/dermatologists were quick to acknowledge that there wasn’t a body of evidence and took more of a wait and see. Lately I feel like peptides have been elevated to “must-have” anti-agers. But I worry that is due to marketing claims wearing us down more than high quality research coming out. Except for copper peptides, which I don’t deal with because my skin is sensitive and they seem like a complicated and finicky ingredient, I don’t hear much about specific named peptides, with specific data around proven clinical levels. Having said that I love skincare, hear how great peptides are for lots of people on RUclips, and have horrible skincare FOMO so I do keep them in both my morning and evening routine, lol. But I’ve decided to clarify (for myself) what ingredients I’m willing to spend more money on for a non-irritating product with clinically proven levels. Retinoids, ascorbic acid, spf and higher percentage AHAs are in my spend if I need to category. Peptides, gentle exfoliants, cleansers, moisturizers and hydrators are in my save category. There are lots of inexpensive and interchangeable options. In my am routine I’ve used the ordinary’s buffet serums, the matrixyl 10% serum and am currently using timeless’s coq10 serum (w matrixyl 3000). At night after my retinoid I’ve been using acure’s radically rejuvenating night cream (w a mix of peptides) and want to try Stratia’s peptide cream. There are some peptides in different hydrating toners and other serums I’ve used but they don’t say what percentage and inexpensive products don’t usually have clinical research done on the actual product. They just make claims based on ingredient research conducted by the manufacturers.
Hey Sarah, I figured I'd give you an update on my dog clodagh. We just got back from her oncologist for her 3rd month post chemo follow up. First four months after chemo ends are the scariest, but after that there's better treatment options if it were to come back. But the vet said her blood work looks to be her best yet. We're so happy about it. I hope your gang is all doing well!
I think we need a cabinet tour 😁🙏! I had a look through mine and discovered an unopened heroine toner that expires next month 😱 gotta get on it and through it.
I think the mechanism by how copper peptides work is that they kinda clear out old collagen in your skin and then create more and better collagen but if you overload your skin with copper peptides the repairing action can’t catch up with the destructive action of the peptide so you actually get the opposite effect. The skin needs time to build new collagen, but that’s just what I understand about it
Ugh that serum is absolutely fabulous but in my experience it was less potent than the ordinary’s so I switched back after a few bottles. Lovely product tho
Thanks solely to you I am now using both Reviv serums (Ultimate and Telomerase). Also using their hair serum! Time will tell. I definitely see a difference in my skin overall since I began incorporating glycolic acid products into my routines so I’m hoping for more positive changes yet!
Wait, isn’t it pronounced Ar-geer-ill-line? Or is that wrong? I just stopped using it after using TO one consistently for a few years & I notice no difference at all. Go figure! 😢
Dear Sarah first of all thank you for all your videos i always like to check up your opinion in products🙏 . Please can you tell what really changed your skin? In the passed year ? Your skin has changed dramatically . Now it looks like a white porcelain doll’s face 😍 ! What will you say did it? Pigment , texture all gone! And look super thigh too! Well looks amazing . Please do tell ? Many thanks and kind regards .love your videos ❤
Hi Sara! I've been using FaceTheory's new peptide serum, the Polypep Collagen Boosting Serum S8 Pro, for a couple of weeks now and really like it. It has gluconolactone, urea, centella and turmeric in it in addition to the peptides, with a thin watery texture that spreads easily and absorbs quickly and is easy to work into morning or nighttime (or both) routines. No irritation or untoward reaction for me but that isn't surprising as my skin is super resilient and nothing much disturbs it. It could be wishful thinking but I feel like I see some firming and smoothing effects on the areas of most visible/noticeable pores, the nose butterfly area, between my brows and my upper lip. It makes me feel good to use it so I'm glad I got it. Do you have any plans to try this one?
Still sad I did not buy the Cosrx 6 Peptide Booster while on the Amazon prime day deal. Forcing myself to use up the skincare products I have on hand.😥
@@pajamamama5965 I guarantee it'll be on sale next month on Amazon. Last year I noticed Amazon had some killer deals several days before Black Friday. I think it was like a pre-sale on certain products. But Amazon frequently has products on sale. It might be only a few Cosrx products but during their big sales...it'll be the entire brand. So don't worry....Black Friday is next month... and it might even be cheaper.
I've been looking for peptide products. So far I use PC pro collagen peptide booster, Stratia Interface ( still trying how to use it where it's not so sticky lol ) Timeless Matrixyl Synthe 6 serum ( I haven't used it long to see results but it feels sooooo good on my skin ) I finally went for the DE protini cream ( feels nice, I'm currently using a travel size, gonna wait and see if I'll purchase a full size ) I tried the Pacifica vegan ceramide lotion and serum everyone raved about....I didn't like them at all. They felt cheap and I didn't like the textures. The serum smelled like a exfoliate....it had a weird chemical smell. After trying those I have no interest in Pacifica. I can't afford the Revive 😢 The Cosrx peptide booster doesn't make sense to me. The fact it's in a toner bottle makes me think their ain't much peptide in it. It's almost like they just jumped on the peptide band wagon and whipped something up lol Always on the look out for a good peptide products.
Thank you Sarah for your recommendations, now that spring is arriving in Chile I want to buy the Neogen cream that you recommend so much and I am also interested in the Jumiso one that you mentioned. A hug Sarah and may you be very well and happy 🌷
Why buying 29 dollars argirelin from skin deva when there's 7-8dollars 10% the ordinary argirelin?? It's wonderful and working. Ran through sooo many bottles and got rid of my wrinkles completely
Why did the ordinary or Julian serum make my skin so dry and way more finelines I had to stop using it I don't understand can somebody explain this to me?? Tnx!! I have very dry skin though and thin-skinned and acne-prone and it's kind of a thin clear consistency
Hello! Which of the two Reviv Serums do you prefer? I feel like the ultimate serum is drying my skin (maybe because of the witch hazel...). I am wondering if the TelomErase serum is more hydrating and potentially more potent too. I would love to get your thoughts!
I've tried a few products with it - I believe Derma E, Bradceuticals, and Makeup Artists Choice. I do think it helped with firmness. I didn't find a product with it that I loved enough to repurchase but always keeping my eyes open for other products in the future.
I typically do use these in the same routine- generally in my evening routine. I'll use the Copper Peptide Serum, then the Klairs Midnight Blue Calming Cream, then the Cosrx Snail Cream at the end.
Have you tried Reviv's hydrating serum or their vitamin c serum. I like the two serums you mentioned but their hydrator and vitamin c seem not as enticing.
Hi I use the ordinary copper peptide in the morning and was wondering what would be a good product to use at night that has a good mix of effective peptides to help firm skin. Thank you
One that is wonderful and super easy to fit into any routine is the Cosrx 6 Peptide Booster - super light, water texture, apply it right after cleansing and toning and then you can use the rest of your normal products after that. If your budget it a bit bigger the RevivSerums Ultimate Serum is a great option, too, but it is a bit more pricey. The peptides and growth factors in it is quite impressive. Another priced in between both of those is the Neogen Sur Medic Azulene Soothing Peptide Ampoule. It does contain Lavender Oil, just an fyi in case you are sensitive to it. Last but not least, the Acure Radically Rejuvenating Whipped Night Cream is amazing for a great moisturizer with lots of peptides!
So this is crazy to me. I have a few minutes, figure I'll go through my resources to get you an answer. I am having a difficult time finding many without a ton of hyaluronic acid. The first one I found is the Mary & May 6 Peptide Serum here: ystyle.co/eAdk The other one is the Logically, Skin - Brightuning Peptide Ampoule here: ystyle.co/qtj9 The last one I found is WellDerma - G Plus Silver Peptide Ampoule here: ystyle.co/i74k The Ordinary Multi Peptide Serum + Copper Peptides is still pretty nice, doesn't have a ton of HA in it but does contain some.
I think it's stated that it's 1% or .5 % CP in the PL I'll have to go back and look but the info is up there . I definitely want to try the other Reveive serum and cosrx peptide, I have used the ultimate serum egf serum everyday sense I got it and the packaging fixed it's self after I dropped it not 100% kinda comes out hard but atleast I can use it I was so upset I broke it right after I bought it . I also use the Dermtlgy needless serum everyday and I'll use the Bioscience CP at night cause I have 3 bottles of it I got in the set with eye cream for like 24$ so I stocked up. I am so upset I can't get the iope stem 111 essence ampoule I'm almost out and can't find it anywhere and it's so good . Have u tried anything from that Depolgy brand ? I keep getting commercials for their matrixyl and Angeline serum , it says its a k beauty Blend of green tea and peptides but I haven't researched them yet or that Dermlyct brand everyone is talking about.
Question: I’ve been using the Reviv Ultimate serum for 5-6 weeks now. What changes should I be looking for? I’m not noticing much. I probably use it every other day. Is it okay to use in conjunction with Vitamin C serum or with Retin A at night? I’ve been avoiding that.
From my experience you definitely can use reviv with vitc or trentinoin, I just use it right after my toner or essence, then slather everything else on afterwards.
I just ordered copper peptide by the ordinary. Then I read about the copper peptide uglies? That instead of firming the skin got saggy. I did research a bit and it appears it’s true. A reaction. Over time. So how do you know ? 🤔 you do a patch test and everything’s fine but then months later your skin looks like crap? I don’t believe or listen to everything I hear or see but all of a sudden I’m reading more about this and wondering what you think

Hi, Sara! There is Spanish brand Theramid and they have 3% copper peptides serum! Maybe you would find it interesting 😊
I have that and love it! I also use their CE Tetra and it’s the only vitamin c I’ve repurchased the most
She discusses this one around 11:00
@@denisenj7648oops) sorry, I’m usually listening, not watching! The main brand is called niche beauty, I didn’t get it 😅 my bad
Peach and Lilly’s has .02% copper peptide stated on their website. I DO love copper peptides over any other
