Oxy-R Peptides harnesses the powers of the brightening ingredient oxyresveratrol, at a previously untouched concentration of 1%. A gentle yet powerful antioxidant, Oxy-R is used in skincare to target areas of hyperpigmentation, dark spots and post-inflammatory pigmentation.
It has been found to be 33x more effective than kojic acid and works by preventing the enzyme tyrosinase from functioning – the main enzyme responsible for the formation of pigment in the skin.
Although exceptionally powerful, Oxy-R is an incredibly unstable ingredient.
Medik8 has carefully formulated a patented system to deliver the unique benefits of ultra-highly stabilised oxyresveratrol.
Oxy-R Peptides keeps the 1% Oxy-R stored in a preservative serum in the lid to protect potency.
Oxy-R Peptides utilizes Click-Activated packaging technology to ensure the formula remains stable from activation to the last drop.
Oxy-R Peptides offer a triple threat to hyperpigmentation, with dual brightening peptides working alongside Oxy-R to improve skin’s visible tone.
Tetrapeptide-30 helps block the overproduction of pigment, which can lead to visible discoloration and uneven skin tone, while acetyl-glycyl beta-alanine helps prevent localized areas of pigment from appearing on the skin.
