Which is better, Proya Double Anti-Aging Essence or Ruby? How to use Proya Double Anti-Aging Essence

PROYA Double Anti-Resistant Essence is a very useful product among our many domestic products. PROYA has many useful skin care products. PROYA Double Anti-Resistant Essence and Ruby Essence are both very popular essences recently.

1. PROYA Ruby Essence

PROYA has launched a new serum: Energizing Fresh Face and Wrinkle Lightening Serum, also called Ruby Serum. But it does not contain rubies, it is just a nickname. It means that 20% hexapeptide, which is more expensive than gemstones, is added. Just like the promotional picture shows, the main feature of this serum is: 20% hexapeptide + 1% retinol. Peptides and vitamin A are not new, they are considered to be the hot ingredients in recent years. It is indeed a good anti-aging product.

Let’s first look at these two ingredients:

Hexapeptide: Peptides are divided into signal peptides, carrier peptides, neurotransmitter peptides, and peptides that regulate the mechanism of action of related proteins in the skin. This hexapeptide (acetyl hexapeptide-8) is a peptide that inhibits neurotransmitters. That's why it is called "botulinum toxin-like". This type of substance can reduce muscle contraction by inhibiting the release of the neurotransmitter acetylcholine, thereby reducing the formation of dynamic lines and expression lines. So, hexapeptide fights wrinkles by inhibiting facial expressions. That's why female stars have "stiff faces" after taking Botox, because the muscles can't contract freely!

Retinol: Everyone knows about the contribution of retinoic acid in anti-acne and anti-aging. However, due to its high irritation, retinoic acid, which is more than 30 times less active than retinoic acid, is undoubtedly relatively less irritating and works faster. Naturally, retinoic acid has been appreciated and favored by many big brands. However, it should be noted that high-concentration retinoic acid products are often accompanied by irritation and can cause fetal deformities. Pregnant women should use them with caution!

These two raw materials are indeed effective, there is no need to question this. But you don't need to be too surprised by the 20% concentration, because this is the raw material concentration, not the actual amount of hexapeptide added. What does it mean? The 20% amount I used is hexapeptide solution, which has been diluted. Excluding these two main advertised ingredients, let's take a look at the other ingredients in the formula. The entire formula consists of 82 raw materials in total! Like La Mer, a "stacked" formula.

Main oil: silicone oil (cyclopentasiloxane), synthetic esters, squalane

In addition to hexapeptide and retinol, most of the functional substances added in large amounts are mainly antioxidant and whitening, which complement anti-aging. For example, small fruit coffee seed extract: protects cortical elastin fibers and removes free radicals; various algae and tea extracts: moisturizing, antioxidant; niacinamide (but the amount added is too small), etc. Even the UVB absorber benzotriazolyl dodecyl p-cresol is added. In addition to hexapeptide, palmitoyl pentapeptide, palmitoyl tripeptide-1, palmitoyl tetrapeptide-7 and other peptides are added. However, although there are 82 raw materials, most of them are added in very small amounts. For example, the amount of EDTA disodium (chelating agent) added in the formula is relatively fixed, about 0.02%. There are 38 raw materials after the EDTA disodium content. It can be roughly estimated that the amount added in this part is about 0.01%, which has no actual effect.

2. PROYA Double Anti-Aging Essence

It is very suitable for daytime anti-aging defense essence, and it is also ok to prime retinol at night. If ruby ​​is conscientious, then double resistance is really exciting. Double resistance refers to anti-oxidation + anti-sugar. In fact, the ingredients also cover anti-inflammation and reducing light damage. The ingredient used for anti-oxidation is Estee Lauder's favorite ergothioneine, which has a strong sniping effect on free radicals. The antioxidant data also crushes Arden Orange Can Ai Dibenzene. The supplier is the best AGIDermatics in the industry, and the added amount reaches the maximum limit of 2%; secondly, astaxanthin, which was introduced in the lazy essence collection, is also used in the double resistance essence to ensure the activity of lipid packs, and the container is also set with a lock clip to ensure activity. This step increases the container cost by at least 30%; and the anti-sugar uses Dragosine carnosine from Symrise and CollrepairDG from BASF, both of which are from top raw material manufacturers and are also the best ingredients known for anti-sugar levels. One bottle can basically resist most damage, and it is very tolerant and can be used with VC, retinol, and fruit acid. Nowadays, ingredient-oriented products are gaining popularity. Many young consumers gradually stop believing in the “revitalizing” and “miracle” claims in advertisements. Instead, they learn to read the ingredient list themselves. However, this will also lead to another trap. Manufacturers also know what popular ingredients people like, and directly purchase raw materials from small 18th-tier factories and put them into bottles for sale. Brands like Proya, which have a complete formula system and spend a lot of money to buy ingredients from top raw material suppliers, are really worthy of praise. If Proya’s two bottles of essences were replaced with the logos of Ya XX Dai and X Kou, it would be reasonable to triple the price.

The essence liquid has a strong sense of fluidity, and the astaxanthin is light orange after mixing. It is not particularly sticky, easy to spread, and very easy to absorb.

I used this essence immediately after using the facial cleanser.

After using it for 4 days, morning and night, I don't know if it's because of it, my skin condition has really improved.
