Express facial 

Argireline is known as acetyl hexapeptide -3 or -8 to target fine lines and subtle expression wrinkles (caused by repeated muscle movement). It affects the nerve-to-muscle communication so that the muscle contractions do not deepen expression wrinkles, it also stimulates collagen production, further helping to increase skin firmness. Along with the skin-smoothing effects, argireline improves moisture levels in the skin. And hydrated skin is always going to look more youthful than dry skin. This powder mask is best for full face application targeting where you have large pores, creases, and crinkles around the eyes, mouth and forehead. 

This is a must for anyone looking for anti-aging results ✨
