The Polypeptide-121 Future Cream by Youth to the People is the brand's newest skincare product and it shares the benefits of Polypeptide-121, an innovative vegan polypeptide chain bio-designed in California with more than 180 amino acids found in human collagen. This ingredient is paired with rice, flax and pea plant proteins for a rich dose of antioxidants and nutrients to amplify hydration and diminish the appearance of wrinkes.
The lightweight and deeply moisturizing cream is a solution for strengthening the skin's moisture barrier, all the while supporting skin that appears visibly smoother and firmer. This plant-powered moisturizer is free from fragrance, as well as parabens, phthalates and animal-derived ingredients. This moisturizer may be used day and night for best results, ideally after cleansing and applying targeted serums.
