Carnosine helps to reduce the appearance of wrinkles and improves skin tone and texture. Having Carnosine in your skin care can combat signs of aging by preventing cross-linking of collagen and other proteins which can cause a loss of elasticity. This skin care ingredient emulates natural carnosine which is found in your body and doubles as an added building block to protect your skin.
You can find this ingredient in a few finished Skin Actives products: Anti-Aging Cream, Collagen Serum and Antioxidant Serum.
How to use it
Beginner: Add up to 1 tube to 4 oz of your favorite base cream or water-based formula.
Advanced: This ingredient is recommended for use at up to 5%. It is not soluble in a totally anhydrous formula but is soluble in water.
Quick Tips
