My Doctor's Diagnosis: Analysis and Target

Visit Polypeptide Cream from Drunk Elephant is primarily intended for skin in need of correction for signs of aging, particularly wrinkles, loss of firmness, and dehydration. Its formula, rich in peptides and growth factors, targets skin regeneration and collagen stimulation, making it an expert treatment for mature skin or for preventing aging. In my opinion, the brand offers a specialized approach focused on repairing and revitalizing the skin barrier.

Formula Analysis: Key Assets

Three active ingredients stand out in this cream:

• Peptides and growth factors (SH-Oligopeptide-1, SH-Polypeptide-1, etc.) These biomimetic molecules stimulate collagen and elastin production, promoting cell repair and visible wrinkle reduction. Their action is scientifically recognized for improving skin density and firmness.
• Hyaluronic acid (Sodium Hyaluronate) : A powerful moisturizer, it retains water in the dermis, plumps the skin, and smooths fine lines. It optimizes skin suppleness and prevents dehydration.
• Marula oil Rich in essential fatty acids and antioxidants, it intensely nourishes, protects the skin barrier, and leaves skin soft and radiant.

The synergy of these active ingredients gives the formula overall effectiveness on the youthfulness and quality of the skin.

Tips and Application Ritual

I apply this cream morning and/or evening to clean skin, after applying serum. It fits perfectly into an anti-aging routine, in combination with moisturizing active ingredients (hyaluronic acid, ceramides). I avoid combining it simultaneously with powerful retinoids or exfoliating acids to limit the risk of irritation.

My Final Verdict & Safety Opinion

Drunk Elephant's Polypeptide Cream stands out for its rich blend of innovative peptides and moisturizing agents. Its creamy texture is suitable for most skin types, even sensitive skin. The only possible downside is that its rich texture may be too nourishing for very oily skin. In conclusion, it is an expert, safe, and effective skincare product for combating the signs of aging.
