I've always been conscious of my skin. As far as skincare is concerned, I've always had the basics: cleanser, toner, moisturizer and eye cream. I would add a treatment here & there if I feel my skin needs a boost. I'd also put on a mask occasionally. Because of my oily skin, I've always shied away from products that I thought would add to my skin's greasiness, like rich creams or essences for instance. When I got to my mid 20's, I knew that if I wanted to preserve my youthfulness, I had to do something about it. I had to be proactive. Right around the time that my interest for anti-aging products was at its peak, I found Mizon Peptide 500.

People have always been searching for the 'fountain of youth'. Some people would do just about anything to stay young and beautiful. These days are 2 ways of finding it: the natural way (through diet and proper skin care) & through invasive and expensive cosmetic surgery.

There are people who choose cosmetic surgery because they can afford it and the results are fast. However, these procedures come with risks, significant downtime and sometimes, complications. The results, should they come out to be unacceptable, are often irreversible or difficult to undo. I have nothing against those who would choose the faster way. The outcome is almost instant. I just personally prefer the more natural way. I like that developing good skin care habits becomes part of your healthy lifestyle. It involves much less PAIN, the results are much more natural & there are definitely no complications. =) And frankly, I'd rather spend on preventive skincare than on invasive procedures.

The natural way requires a bit more time and patience. It involves watching what you eat, drinking lots of water, having enough sleep & keeping a good skincare routine. All you need is a little time each day to give your skin some TLC. It also includes an occasional trip to your trusted dermatologist, just to keep some of the more serious matters (acne, warts & what have you) in check.

It's never too early to start using anti-aging products. Actually, the best time to start was yesterday. To be more specific, your early 20s is the ideal age to start. Prevention is always better than cure. It is easier to prevent the signs of aging than to reverse the damage that has already occurred.

As we age, these are the things we have to watch out for: dehydration, scars, too much sun exposure & wrinkles. For skin care and the less invasive procedures, here is a short list of some crazy, albeit disgusting things that people are willing to put on their faces just to keep their youthful looks. I have to give you some fair warning because some of them are downright frightening or just plain gross. Here's giving you a minute or 2 to finish or put down that sandwich or meal that you're having.

Trust me, the things I'm about to tell you won't go down well with food. Ready? Here's the list: snake venom, kitty litter, bird poo, (your own) blood, horse oil and other things. Thank God Mizon Peptide 500 has nothing like any of that.

Mizon Peptide 500 is a light serum which is a potent mix of ingredients that create a strong protective layer against wrinkles and skin damage. The peptides in this light, watery serum target wrinkles and fine lines. This star ingredient hydrates, firms, and lifts the skin.

This potent anti-aging cocktail includes: a) Acetyl hexapeptide-8, which boosts skin hydration, renews the skin, and reduces fine lines b) Palmitoyl Pentapeptide-4, which encourages collagen production to firm the skin c) Pentapeptide-13, which delivers maximum hydration d) Copper Tripeptide-1, which is great for reducing inflammation, promotes fast healing of wounds and skin damage & stimulates the production of collagen and elastin e) Castor oil, which also reduces inflammation, brightens pigmentation & heals blemishes.

The Mizon Peptide 500 comes in a vibrant green 30 ml dropper bottle. It comes out as a feather-light, clear & watery liquid that is easily absorbed into your skin. It is so versatile that it can be mixed with other serums without any adverse reactions. This serum is potent but gentle enough for all skin types.

The Mizon Peptide 500 claims to help your skin achieve a more youthful looking appearance and a smoother texture as it lifts, firms and moisturizes your skin. The 55% peptide content of this serum makes it a very effective anti-aging serum.

I applied the Mizon Peptide 500 serum to my skin after my usual makeup removal, cleansing, toning skincare steps. Using the dropper, I squeezed about 2 - 3 drops of the serum and applied it onto my skin with light tapping motions. With my skin still moist from the serum, I followed on with my usual moisturizer. My skin immediately felt soft, smooth and light. I loved how it felt on my face because even with moisturizer, it never felt greasy. As I woke up, I looked well-rested, my pores and fine lines were much less visible. I included it as well in my morning skincare routine before makeup. Three days after I started using it, I started getting compliments from people at work on how my skin had this certain glow and that I look refreshed. I didn't expect the effects to be so obvious so soon. This is definitely a keeper!
