🇰🇷 Slow Aging: Embracing Aging Gracefully and Healthily, Trending Upwards in Peptide Interest

Through consistent care, the trend of 'slow aging', where one ages slowly and healthily, has taken its place as a beauty trend, with growing interest in cosmetics ingredients that have anti-aging functions such as wrinkle reduction and elasticity improvement.


In this regard, the UK beauty media, Cosmetic Business, selected peptides as the first of the top five skincare trends for 2024. Peptides are substances composed of 2 to 20 amino acids that regulate important metabolic functions in the body along with proteins. When applied to the skin, peptides stimulate the production of proteins like collagen and elastin, contributing to skin brightening, wrinkle reduction, and elasticity improvement.


As a result, the cosmetics industry is launching skincare products utilizing peptides one after another, targeting the anti-aging market.

This project aims to make it easier for people to trade small amounts of health products between themselves. They're doing this because back in January, a group suggested making it easier for people to buy and sell health products. But they also want to make sure everything stays safe and regulated.
