Description

Acetyl Octapeptide-3, also known as SNAP-8, is a synthetic peptide that is based around octapeptide-3, a peptide complex composed of the amino acids aspartic acid, glutamic acid, glutamine, and methionine. This peptide is said to improve the look of signs of aging formed from repetitive facial expressions. Like all peptides, it has water-binding properties and theoretical skin-restoring ability. It may play a role in helping skin look younger and can help hydrate and smooth skin.
