Harm score: 3 (Harmless chemicals)
Acetyl Hexapeptide-8, also known as Acetyl Hexapeptide-3 or Argireline, is a neuropeptide used in cosmetics as an active ingredient for skin care. This hexapeptide (composed of six amino acids) is a synthetic preservative, and is known primarily for its anti-aging effect. Acetyl Hexapeptide works similarly to Botox, but without the need for invasive surgery. Its main function is to relieve tension in the face that causes wrinkles to form. Acetyl Hexapeptide can effectively smooth wrinkles caused by muscle movement, such as wrinkles on the forehead, around the nose or around the eyes.
Acetyl Hexapeptide is often found in various types of cosmetic products such as creams, serums, masks or even in products designed for the eye contour. It is also included in some anti-aging products, where its ability to relax muscles is claimed, thus counteracting wrinkles. This substance can also be found in scalp or hair care products, where it helps stimulate hair growth. Despite its effect, Argireline is considered one of the safest anti-wrinkle ingredients on the market. It is suitable for all skin types and can be safely used even by people with sensitive skin.
