What You’ll See On The Ingredient List
Variations of acetyl hexapeptide, acetyl octapeptide, palmitoyl oligopeptide, palmitoyl tetrapeptide, palmitoyl hexapeptide or others.
Why Your Skin Needs It
Peptides are amino acids that help increase the production of natural collagen and elastin, which are essential building blocks for youthful-looking skin. Strengthening the skin’s dermal matrix helps smooth the look of lines and wrinkles and help skin look and feel firmer, more resilient, and taut.
The Clinique Expertise
Repairing the look of lines and wrinkles isn’t a task for just one miracle ingredient. For more optimal de-aging power, we combine peptides with other wonder workers. On the most-wanted list: Clinique Smart Custom-Repair Serum combines acetyl-hexapeptide-8 with whey protein, salicylic acid, hyaluronic acid and vitamin C to help visibly smooth, lift, and brighten skin.
What Our Scientist Says
“We are always researching peptide variations as we continue to innovate. They are vital to helping increase skin’s natural collagen and elastin production, which play a critical role in helping skin look smoother, less lined, and more lifted,” says Dr. Tom Mammone, Vice President, Skin Physiology and Pharmacology.

Peptides 101.
Peptides in skincare are the answer to anti-ageing. Peptides are essentially amino acids that help to stimulate your skin to make collagen. For skincare lovers, you’ll know that collagen is what creates smoother, firmer, and youthful skin. It’s no wonder it is such a crucial ingredient in so many anti-ageing skincare products, like our Smart SPF15 Custom-Repair Moisturizer.
With a highly hydrating formula, the moisturiser instantly reduces the appearance of fine lines and brightens the skin’s complexion. The key to younger-looking skin is a strong moisture barrier. That is precisely what peptides in skincare products help to build and maintain. Not only do they provide instant hydration, but they work to retain the moisture in the skin throughout the day, and repair any damage to your skin’s moisture barrier. If you’re into anti-ageing, discover even more skin firming products.
To really lock in the hydration and optimise its benefits, opt for a moisturiser with peptides. Our Smart Clinical Repair™ Wrinkle Correcting Rich Cream is a dense, luxurious moisturiser that injects moisture into the skin to nourish your skin barrier. The soft texture of the cream smooths the skin’s surface, creating youthful and bright-looking skin. Similar to any other moisturiser you might use, apply this as the last step to your skincare routine to seal in all your products.
