Formulated without alcohol, cyclopeptide-5 is the first homodetic cyclic biomimetic peptide designed for cosmetic applications. Its unique structure enables it to bind to receptors on the skin's surface to trigger cell communication, thereby mimicking the skin's natural communication and repair mechanisms. It thus helps the skin regain its firmness, elasticity, and resilience, reduces the depth of wrinkles, and works to reshape the skin's cellular matrix that provides volume.
