Discover Active Peptide's new peptide architectures engineered to deliver targeted, long-lasting skin benefits
Through advanced biotechnology and structural engineering, Active Peptide has developed a new generation of functional peptides with increasingly sophisticated architectures: these structure unlock anti-ageing benefits such as wrinkle reduction, skin firmness, skin barrier support and radiance.
Linear Peptide Technology
SPILALIFT™
- Instant wrinkle reduction
Obtained through biotechnology and derived from plant proteins, SPILALIFT™ is a linear peptide designed to visibly relax dynamic facial wrinkles. By modulating neuromuscular signaling pathways, it helps reduce muscle micro-contractions responsible for expression lines such as crow’s feet and nasolabial folds. The result is a smoother, more relaxed skin appearance with gentle yet lasting efficacy.
INCI: Spilanthoyl sh-Hexapeptide-46 SP Amide, Water (Aqua), Propylene Glycol
2D Cyclic Peptide Technology
Cyclization technology overcomes the major limitations of conventional linear peptides by locking the molecule into a more stable and biologically active conformation. Compared to traditional peptides, cyclic structures provide enhanced receptor affinity for more precise biological targeting, improved resistance to enzymatic degradation for longer-lasting efficacy, and optimised skin penetration through reduced exposed polar surfaces.
STELLACYCLIC™
- Brightening
- Soothing
- Antioxidant
Multifunctional cyclic peptide that helps reduce melanin synthesis while soothing skin discomfort and neutralising free radicals, supporting a brighter, calmer, and more resilient complexion, and enhancing overall skin radiance and defense against environmental oxidative stress.
INCI: Cyclosh-Pentapeptide-48 SP, Water (Aqua), Caprylyl Glycol, Propylene Glycol, PPG-5-Ceteth-20
COLLACYCLIC™
- Anti-wrinkle
- Skin barrier enhancement
Highly active cyclopeptide inspired by Stellaria Yunnanensis supporting both skin barrier integrity and visible anti-ageing performance. By interacting with integrin pathways on keratinocytes, it stimulates the synthesis and organization of essential barrier proteins and lipids, including filaggrin, loricrin, and ceramides. This reinforces the skin’s protective function while helping reduce transepidermal water loss (TEWL).
INCI: Cyclo Hexapeptide-133, Water (Aqua), Caprylyl Glycol
3D Dendrimer Peptide Technology
Dendrimer peptides are branched 3D structures that create unique hydrophobic cavities capable of protecting the active compound while enhancing delivery performance. Compared to conventional peptide systems, dendrimer peptides offer strong resistance to enzymatic degradation, enhanced membrane penetration, sustained bioactivity over time, and multifunctional surface interactions for optimised efficacy.
DENDRIAGEX™
- Brightening
- Anti-wrinkle
- Antioxidant & Photoprotection
Dendrimer peptide combining antioxidant activity with complexion-enhancing performance. It helps neutralise free radicals while accelerating the renewal of pigmented keratinocytes, promoting a brighter, more even, and luminous skin appearance.
INCI: Histidine/Lysine Dendrimer Methyl Ester, Water (Aqua), Caprylyl Glycol
DENDRIREGEN™
- Anti-wrinkle
- Skin firmness
- Anti inflammatory
Next-generation dendrimer peptide specifically designed to support dermal matrix integrity. Targeting fibroblast activity, it stimulates collagen type I and elastin synthesis while strengthening the dermal-epidermal junction (DEJ), helping improve skin firmness, elasticity, and structural support. It also shows antibacterial activity.
INCI: Lysine Dendrimer Methyl Ester, Water (Aqua), Caprylyl Glycol
