This carefully curated combination of naturally occurring neuropeptides and amino acids is in every A.P. CHEM ® formula and promotes firmer, smoother, and more even toned skin. Its hero is Polyglutamic Acid.

PGA & HA

Both skin revitalizers are in all of our formulas, but did you know:

PGA holds up to 10x more moisture than HA. It forms a protective barrier to prevent moisture loss, which leads to benefits like softer texture, less irritation, and fewer breakouts—to name a few. Because PGA slowly absorbs into skin, it can deliver a bouncy, dewy glow. It also helps to accelerate skin’s natural renewal process to soften the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, even skin tone and boost elasticity— even more than topical collagen.

GABA:
GABA is a naturally occurring neuropeptide. It helps relax tense facial muscles, reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles and improves elasticity so facial contours appear more defined. A powerful antioxidant, it also leaves skin looking smoother.

Baicalin is our hero skin soother, protector, and de-stressor. It helps strengthen the dermal barrier and neutralize free-radicals, leading to lower levels of oxidative stress in the skin – creating a more optimal environment for skin renewal.

“Inflammation is a core component of virtually every skin condition, if not most health conditions.”
