Peptides and vitamins.
Just the name “peptide” sounds as thought it’s going to “pep up” your skin and it should do just that! Peptides are, in fact, proteins - they are short amino acid chains held together with a peptide.
Now, why are these useful? Well, skincare peptides send different signals into your skin from the surface, telling your skin to boost collagen production, improve skin elasticity, reduce wrinkles, and enhance the skin's barrier function and promote a more youthful, hydrated complexion. See how great they are?
Vitamins do something different. From the skin’s surface they don’t send signals to do something, they actually do the work. For example, vitamins like C and E neutralize free radicals, preventing oxidative stress that causes premature aging and skin damage.
THIS BOX IS WORTH £206.00

DR BOTANICAL’S GREEN CAVIAR PEPTIDE EYE SERUM 15ml / RRP £89.00
The eye area is often a pain point as we get older - crow’s feet, bags, fine lines and more. This peptide rich product is perfect to signal skin to repair and get going. Green Caviar? It’s little seaweed grapes!
Your active peptide here is Matrikine Peptide 6 which plays a crucial role in skin repair and regeneration by stimulating collagen production, enhancing skin elasticity, and reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, all of which we want!
DECREE LIGHT CLEANSER 100ml / RRP £47.00
So why have I put a cleanser into a peptide and vitamin box? Very simple. If we are doing all this work to add ingredients into your skin, let’s not ruin it by stripping them out. It also has Vitamins C, K, A, B and E in it to leave your skin super soft and hydrated. This product is made by a doctor who works in the NHS (and privately) as a consultant dermatologist. She has balanced how much your skin will tolerate with ingredients for maximum results. I’d use this in the morning.
