Palmitoyl tripeptide-5 is a synthetic signal peptide used to improve eyelid skin firmness and reduce the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines. Ideal for sensitive eyelid skin types.
Glycerin is a humectant, a type of moisturizing agent that pulls water into the outer layer of your eyelid skin from deeper levels and the air.
