Is Matrixyl Good for Mature Skin?

Is Matrixyl Good for Mature Skin?

Yes, Matrixyl is fantastic for mature skin as it helps increase our own collagen and elastin production; two things that decrease as we age. Matrixyl is an excellent ingredient for mature skin, thanks to its ability to stimulate collagen production, reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, improve elasticity, and hydrate the skin. Its gentle nature makes it an ideal choice for those with sensitive skin or those looking for a non-irritating anti-aging solution.  With consistent use, Matrixyl can offer long-term improvements in skin texture and firmness.

 

What is Matrixyl?

Matrixyl is a peptide-based skincare ingredient. It consists of two key peptides, palmitoyl pentapeptide-4 and palmitoyl tetrapeptide-7. These work together to enable Matrixyl to stimulate collagen production, support skin structure, and smooth out wrinkles.

Peptides are short chains of amino acids that act as building blocks of proteins such as collagen and elastin, which are essential for resilient skin. Peptides work like a key and lock. Each peptide will trigger a certain action to occur. The two key peptides in Matrixyl work by telling our skin to ramp up the collagen and elastin production. 

To understand whether Matrixyl is truly beneficial for mature skin, it's essential to look at the scientific research backing it up. One of the most significant studies on Matrixyl showed that its peptides can increase collagen synthesis by up to 350%, making it a key player in anti-aging skincare. Collagen is the protein responsible for giving the skin its structure, firmness, and smooth texture. With age, collagen production diminishes, causing the skin to lose its youthful appearance.

But alas, Matrixyl only worked with water-based formulas until Kari learned about an oil-based one called Matrixyl 3000 OS. She immediately started testing it and found it a great addition to our Essential Serum.  After a couple weeks, she started seeing smoother, more resilient skin. She was blown away with the results, and knew she had to get this in more people’s hands.  So, we did our first ever Consumer Study with this new formula to really put it to the test.

Results:

94% saw an improvement in skin texture

94% woke up to smooth skin

94% said their skin looked healthy

90% said their skin appeared firmer

90% experienced glowing skin

*Based on an independent consumer perception study conducted over 4 weeks on 54 women ages 35-65.

 

After these results, we knew we had something special on our hands, so we launched our peptide serum with Matrixyl.

To get the very best results, you will want to use every day – consistency is key. Just like with a diet, it takes everyday action over time to see a difference.  Unlike retinoids, which can produce noticeable results in a short time, Matrixyl works gradually.  But unlike retinoids, Matrixyl isn’t as irritating to skin.

But don’t forget to wear SPF every day. If you aren’t protecting your skin from UV damage, the new damage will eat up the hard work of the peptides. Remember, a skincare routine without SPF is pointless. We love our Essential SPF for everyday use. It is a blend of plant oils with non-nano zinc oxide to provide hydration and a glowing complexion.
