FRANKLY Closer Pore Reducing Peptide Serum 30ml

Peptides 101

For the 30s going on 13! Your anti-aging arsenal should already include the non-negotiables: retinoid, sunscreen - but you can give it a necessary upgrade by adding a peptide serum. To summarize the science, peptides are integral to maintaining the skin’s structure, along with collagen and elastin, it keeps the skin firm and taut. With a peptide serum (especially when paired with a retinoid) you should notice an improvement in fine lines, skin firmness, and general dullness. 

Pore…Closing?

How does a peptide serum improve the appearance of pores? While pore size is genetic, the breakdown of elastin and collagen over time can exacerbate its appearance. Peptides help revitalize the skin’s structure (of elastin and collagen) which in turn minimizes the appearance of pores. Of course, prevention is always best so we recommend adding a peptide serum early!
