Dipeptide-2 is clinically proven to reduce under-eye bagginess and puffiness. It improves lymphatic circulation and is often used in eye creams to combat dark and puffy under-eye circles.
The amino acid structure of this ingredient makes it an effective skin conditioner. Because its structure resembles the lipid content of the epidermis, it is considered to be a natural moisturizing factor (NMF). As an NMF, it helps keep the intercellular structure of the epidermis intact, facilitates the skin’s healing process, prevents dermal irritation, and may even regenerate the skin. Several animal studies suggest that the topical application of dipeptide-2 may act as a growth promoter because of its ability to increase the skin’s protein synthesis and amino acid uptake.
