Advanced Peptide Plus

Yes. Advanced Peptide Plus is formulated without common sensitizers and is tagged as appropriate for sensitive skin. The formula includes Allantoin and Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Juice, both well-established for their calming and soothing properties. The Vitamin C used here is Aminopropyl Ascorbyl Phosphate, a stabilized phosphate-ester form that is gentler on skin than ascorbic acid and less likely to cause irritation or redness. As with any new product, a patch test on a small area before full-face application is always a good first step.

Apply it after cleansing and toning, and before your moisturizer or heavier creams. Its lightweight texture absorbs quickly and creates an ideal base for layering other products on top. If you use a separate serum, apply the thinner-consistency product first, then Advanced Peptide Plus, then your moisturizer. It can be used in the morning, at night, or both — the formula contains no ingredients that require nighttime-only use, and its antioxidant content including Vitamin C and Superoxide Dismutase makes it particularly useful as part of a daytime routine to help defend against environmental stress.

Peptides are short chains of amino acids, which are the basic building blocks that make up proteins in the body. They act as messengers, carrying vital information between cells that triggers specific functions. When applied topically, peptides can penetrate the outer layer of the skin and interact with the cells responsible for collagen, elastin, and other essential proteins’ production. This helps to strengthen the skin’s structure, improve elasticity, and promote a more youthful appearance. Read More: Why Are Peptides Essential for Your Skin?

Yes, and the formula is more hydration-capable than its lightweight texture suggests. Sodium Hyaluronate draws moisture into the skin and helps prevent moisture loss throughout the day. Glycerin is a well-established humectant that pulls water into the outer layers of skin and helps keep it there. Squalane, derived from olive, provides emollient conditioning that softens skin without heaviness or greasiness. Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Juice adds a layer of soothing hydration, and Soluble Collagen helps increase the skin’s moisture levels while contributing to a smoother, plumper appearance. Together, these ingredients provide meaningful hydration for normal to combination skin types. If your skin runs drier or you’re using Advanced Peptide Plus in cold or low-humidity conditions, layering it under your favorite moisturizer will give you added comfort without diminishing its active ingredient performance.

Swiss Apple Stem Cell Extract comes from a rare Swiss heirloom apple variety prized for its exceptional longevity. The bioactive compounds in the extract help protect and revitalize the environment around your skin’s own epidermal stem cells, which are responsible for continuously renewing the outer layers of skin. As we age, those stem cells become less active, which contributes to fine lines, loss of firmness, and slower repair. This extract helps support the skin’s natural renewal capacity, improve surface texture, and defend against oxidative stress caused by daily environmental exposure. Benefits build gradually with consistent use, typically becoming visible within four to eight weeks. It is well tolerated by most skin types, including sensitive skin. You’ll find Swiss Apple Stem Cell Extract in Reviva Labs’ Advanced Peptide Plus, where it works alongside Argireline, Vitamin C, DMAE, and Collagen for a multi-active approach to visibly younger-looking skin.

Peptides are short chains of amino acids, which are the basic units that make up proteins in the body. They act as messengers, carrying vital information between cells and triggering specific functions. When applied topically, peptides can penetrate the outer layer of the skin and interact with the cells responsible for collagen, elastin, and other essential proteins’ production. They work by signaling these cells to increase their protein synthesis, thereby boosting collagen and elastin production. This increased synthesis helps to strengthen the skin’s structure, improve elasticity, and promote a more youthful appearance.
