The mechanism of action of palmitoyl tripeptide-8 is to interfere with the generation of inflammatory cells IL-8 (interleukin) and TNF-α (tumor necrosis factor), which contributes to relieving dry skin, reducing redness and reducing the effects of the inflammatory response. Thanks to this ingredient, cosmetics become an effective solution in the fight against signs of premature skin aging and skin allergies.
The use of palmitoyl tripeptide-8 is recommended in a wide range of skin care products, such as gels, lotions, AM/PM creams, eye serums and face masks. This product provides relief from skin irritation, has anti-inflammatory and anti-allergenic effects, and soothes the effects of external stimuli.
The recommended concentration of the additive in cosmetic products is between 0.0005% and 0.01%. Palmitoyl tripeptide-8 is especially recommended for products dedicated to sensitive, irritation-prone skin, as well as for products aimed at alleviating the effects of skin aging.
