We’re really here to tell you how to get the perfect pout – this is not just lip service.
In recent years, brows and lashes may have taken centre stage courtesy of micro-blading and extensions but there’s no doubt that lips are going to be just as big this year.
Granted, while women will agree that plump, youthful lips are desirable, many of us have seen one too many over-injected celebs and influencers while scrolling and it’s hard to make sense of that in pursuit of the perfect pout.
While you might be pouting in doubt about getting lip augmentation, peptide-rich lip products have entered the chat and changed the game – call peptides the ‘it’ girl of every pout-perfecting 2023 skincare regime.
You heard it here first, this lip trend is going to stick.
Online searches for peptide lip treatments have spiked by 422% in the first couple of months of this year already, with more and more skincare brands adding these special lip products to their repertoire. From balms to glosses, lipsticks to lip stains, consumers are asking that their lip products multi-task like they do, and brands are hustling to meet the demands.
Do you want your skin to appear plumper? Let peptides do the work. Do you want to reduce the appearance of fine lines? Peptides are the answer. And not just any peptides, but collagen-rich peptides.
Over at Skin Renewal, peptides have always been front and centre. That’s because skin professionals know that as we age, our top lip can start to disappear when we smile. This thinning often goes hand in hand with dryness and is caused by collagen production slowing down year-on-year.
While eye creams have been singing the praises for collagen production boosters for years – full of peptides, which are amino acids, the building blocks of collagen and elastin – it’s time for our lips to get in on the juiciness too.
When included in a lip product, collagen peptides help to boost collagen and hyaluronic acid; smoothing, plumping and adding volume to lips. Lip products use peptides such as tripeptide-38 or palmitoyl oligopeptide to trigger collagen and elastin production in lips.
To try this out, we have to recommend the new Neostrata Correct Lip Wrinkle Repair – an anti-wrinkle, topical line filler for on and around your lips that contains not only a combination of different peptides but 5% NeoGlucosamine and 3% NeoCitriate, too.
